The 90's were filled with fun knickknacks and a few of the best fads of all-time. Although, it's difficult to narrow down the top games of the decade, I have chosen my personal favorite toys from the 90's, in no particular order.

1. Tamagotchi

These virtual creatures provided 90's children with hours worth of entertainment. Maintaining the life of one's Tamagotchi gave children their first sense of responsibility by making sure it got fed and didn't die while they were at grade school.


2. Moon Shoes

These mini trampolines for one's feet were always a great time. But trying to run in them was even more fun.


3. Skip-It

The game you could play all by yourself and never get bored. The Skip-It was also a great way to release excess energy, which all children dealt with.


4. Razor Scooter

The most epic way to get around one's neighborhood was by means of scooter. Wheeling around on this two-wheeled mobile made all 90's children feel super cool. But if it ever hit one's shin, it was like the most agonizing pain ever experienced.


5. Bop It

The greatest party game ever that could also be played by one's self.

6. Polly Pockets

It was always a competition with who had the most Polly Pocket items. If anyone had the jacuzzi or castle, they were instantly the coolest of the group.


7. Pogo Stick

This toy created battles with who could stay on the longest and do the most bounces.

8. American Girl Dolls

Obtaining a doll that was one's mini-me was every girl's dream. Same hair color, eye color, and style were key.

9. Easy-Bake Oven

When parents feared their children might burn the house down via oven or stove, they opted for the Easy-Bake Oven. This was every child's dream to be able to cook sugary pastries whenever he or she pleased. Although, they were sub-par treats, it was always tons of fun to make.

10. Furby

This talking, furry, owl-hamster was all the rage during the 90's.

11. Beanie Babies

Who had the most Beanie Babies became the competition of the decade.

12. Game Boy

Game Boy's were truly the best. They were video games on-the-go that one could play anytime, anywhere.

13. Nerf Gun

Nerf wars with one's siblings, friends, or other relatives were a constant battle children fought during the 90's and even still today.

14. Slinky

The classic, simple toy that one could play with for hours. What would happen if one sent it down the stairs or attached it to a moving object? The possibilities were endless.

15. Koosh Ball

This squishy, stringy ball was always a great time. One could stretch it, squeeze it, throw it, or whatever one pleased.

16. Playstation

Video games provided hours worth of entertainment. Who could resist Crash Bandicoot or Rayman?


18. Anything Klutz

The ultimate crafting kits for girls to paint their nails, braid, or really anything they wished.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
