Let's all take a moment of silence for all of those delicious snacks that we enjoyed as kids that have since been taken off shelves. But let's not cry because it's over... let's smile because it happened. Just thinking about it brings back memories of coming home from school, turning on Cartoon Network, and snacking away.

And while watching T.V., we'd always see ads for said snacks, such as this unforgettable and absolutely ridiculous commercial. Reminisce with me, as I remind you of these 10 snacks that have been discontinued, but will continue to live forever in our hearts.

1. 3D Doritos

These were my personal favorite, so they had to be in the number one spot. For some reason, the chips being smaller and in 3D made them taste so much better. Frito Lay, if you can hear me... please for the love of God, bring back these delicious three-dimensional chips.

2. EZ Squirt Ketchup

This ketchup was equal parts gross and exciting. No one really asked for their ketchup to be green or purple, but Heinz knew that's what we all wanted.

3. Dunkaroos

These were the best dessert to have in your lunch box. Such a simple and beautiful concept: cookies with your desired amount of frosting.

4. Altoids Sours

I popped these bad boys on the daily like I was addicted to them. I didn't even care how much they made my cheeks hurt or how much they cut the roof of my mouth. They were worth it.

5. Wonder Ball


Okay, so I'm fairly certain that they did bring these back, but they're definitely not the same as they used to be. I'm pretty sure they have Shopkins in them now instead of these tangy, character shaped candies. I'm not about it.

6. Sprite Remix

Sprite definitely needs to bring back this tropical twist on their lemon-lime flavor. It was fruity and refreshing and I need it back in my life.

7. Melody Pops

These were the lollipops made for music lovers. You could play a little tune with this and also get a snack, so it was a win-win.

8. French Toast Crunch

We all know and love Cinnamon Toast Crunch, but do you remember when French Toast Crunch was a thing? The world of cereal hasn't been the same since.

9. Oreo O's

Speaking of cereal, I heard rumors that Oreo O's made a comeback. Someone, please tell me if this is true and if so where can I get them???

10. McDonald's Cookies

Do you guys remember eating McNuggets, topping off your meal with some of these delicious cookies, and then hitting the ball pit in the Play Place with your bros? Same.

11. Crystal Pepsi

Crystal Pepsi was the short-lived clear soda that blew everyone's minds when it first came out. It was recently brought back for a limited time, and people are going crazy over it.

12. Schezuan Sauce

Everyone probably forgot about McDonald's Szechuan sauce, until an episode of Rick and Morty reminded us all of its deliciousness. This sauce came out in 1998 to promote Disney's Mulan. After decades of living without it, McDonald's finally re-released it for a limited time following the uproar of comments by Rick and Morty fans. At this point, we're all wondering why they don't just bring it back for good.

There may be many snacks that didn't make this list, but these are the ones that stand out most to me when I reminisce about the "good old days." These snacks may be long gone, but their legacy remains. RIP to our childhood.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
