Here's How You Know You Were Part Of The Mary-Kate and Ashley Generation

If you were anything like me you were basically obsessed with Mary-Kate and Ashley, from Full House to Our First Video to their new fashion line "Elizabeth and James" you knew everything about them and watched their every move. Although they really weren't the best singers or actresses, they portrayed life as an average kid, and that's what made so many girls fall in love with them, and what helped them become them the youngest movie producers in Hollywood by age six. The Olsen Twins had such a contagious personality; I can't even imagine my childhood without their movies. So if this list reins true to you, I'm happy to tell you that you were a part of the Mary-Kate and Ashley Generation.


When you see a trench coat it doesn’t make you fearful; you think of solving a mystery!

Someone needs help solving a case? Piece of cake; you can have any case solved by dinner time.

When people talk about Parent Trap, and you’re like, “Don’t you mean It Takes Two?”

Your first soap operas consisted of Two of a Kind and So Little Time.

You can still recite every word of “Once upon a midnight dreary, as I pondered weak and weary…” I’ll let you finish the rest.

Of course if you were a super fan you owned a Michelle Doll that said all of Michelle’s catch phrases!

Of course, we all wanted Mary Kate and Ashley to show up to our house like they did in their Barbie doll commercials. Unfortunately, some of us are still waiting for this one to happen...

New York Minute broke your heart not only because it was the worst film they made, but as it was the last film to ever debut both girls.

When your brother got on your last nerve you didn’t hesitate to set up a stand saying, “Brother For Sale”.

You either were in the Mary-Kate and Ashley fan club, or you were deeply saddened to find out that it had been canceled.

Of course, you have their books, including the Full House Michelle ones as well.

Can you even call yourself a fan if you didn’t own at least one item from their fashion/beauty line?


Did you own a Mary-Kate and Ashley Barbie doll? Duh. Is that even a serious question?

You always tried to repeat their cool hairstyles, but for some reason it never turned out the same on you…

Taking a picture with their star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame was definitely a highlight of your life.

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.
