Only 90s Kids Remember

For the past couple of years, there has been a running joke that all babies born between 1990 and 1999 are the only people who remember popular things from that time. This trend has taken to all social media platforms, including the infamous Twitter account that tweets out pictures of all the objects that supposedly "only 90s kids remember." Here are a few of popular 90s items that our childhoods were not complete without.

1. Wonder Balls

What could ever be better than eat chocolate and finding prizes inside?

2. Hit Clips

Even though they only played less than a minute of your favorite songs, Hit Clips were the original iPod and you wouldn't leave the house without yours.



3. Blockbuster

Before Netflix could stream movies right to your TV, you had to go to the store to rent them. And also rewind them before returning them. Because yes, you are that old that you were alive before you could watch a movie multiple times without having to manually rewind it.

4. The Original Flappy Bird

Just looking at this picture brings back memories of sitting in the waiting room of the dentist's office. This game always brought out your competitive side.

5. Push-up Pencils

If you lost one of these, you were out of luck.

6. Rainbow Click Pens

We all tried to click down multiple colors at once, subsequently breaking the pen and having to beg our parents to buy us a new one.

7. Tamagotchis

Taking care of one of these was your main focus in life...until they were banned from school and you were forced to neglect your babies.

8. Razor Cell Phones

Having one of these made you the coolest kid on the block.

9. Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen Movie

Every. Single. One.

10. Fanny Packs

You were the most stylish kid on your school field trip to the zoo when you wore one of these...or so you thought. Sadly, fanny packs are making a comeback.

11. That's So Suite Life of Hannah Montana

Your every childhood dream fulfilled in one incredible television episode.

12. Slap Bracelets

Admit it, you felt like a total badass slapping one of these babies on.

13. Gauchos

These were your most comfortable pants. Unfortunately, they were also your ugliest.

14. Furbies

Your favorite furry friend.

15. Heelys

You know you wish you had a pair to roll around your college campus with.

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.
