26 Things From Your Childhood That You Totally Forgot Existed

There once was a time long, long ago, before the existence of Snapchat and PokemonGo. Although we didn't have either (how did we survive!?), we did have these things...

1. Zoombinis

And making those pizza's were the best part.


2. Life of Ryan (and Ryan Sheckler in general)

First crush.


3. The Cinnamon Challenge

We all did it...but Glozell did it best.


4. The Buried Life

When I first realized I was into older men.


5. Temple Run

Pre PokemonGo.


6. These things

Grocery shopping has never since been the same.


7. Windows 3 Solitaire

Which you played on your families lunky desktop computer.


8. AIM

x0babyylaxgirl13: ~Out w/ the best;; text/call ittt~


9. Brain Quest

Thinking you were such a bad@$ smart chick because you were in 2nd grade using the 4th grade Brain Quest.


10. The best days at school

May Veggie Tales, Bill Nye, and The Magic School Bus live on for elementary school students in generations to come.


11. The ever so classy picture day laser background


...that my mom never let me get. I used to resent her but now I thank her.


12. Milky Pens

When I was 10 I literally thought that I was going to grow up and become a professional Milky Pen tattoo artist.


13. Coppertone Kids Color Block Sunscreen

If they ever bring this back while I have children I will sue Coppertone.


14. Neopets


I won the Neo-lottery one time and only fed my pets donuts and desserts because they looked pretty in my inventory.


15. Barbie Nail Salon

Pretty sure I cried when I got this for Christmas 2001.


16. Hit Clips

Pre-iTunes and Spotify - Us 90's kids only got to listen to 30 seconds of a song.


17. Radio Disney...and all the songs that came with it


Being on AM radio was their real mistake...but playing Jesse McCartney made up for it.


18. Game Cube



May the original Mario Kart be remembered forever.


19. Freddi Fish

*Spoiler Alert* Prepare for your mind to be blown...Freddi was a girl. Yes. I'm sorry. Your life was a lie.


20. Junie B. Jones Series

"My name is Junie B. Jones. The B stands for Beatrice. Except I don't like Beatrice. I just like B and that's all."


21. Take Me Out Of The Bathtub

Still a work of genius in my eyes.

22. Dragon Tales

Everyone's favorite after school show.


23. Reader Rabbit

I still have never had a kumquat or a quince (do they even exist??)

24. Club Penguin

If you were a member you were part of an elite group.


25. Moody's Point (& the Amanda Show)

Bring back the dancing lobsters.


26. Big Comfy Couch


To this day she is still flexibility goals.

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.
