Throwback to when childhoods were actually childhoods


Most of those who are reading this are 90's kids or grew up in the early 2000's, and we know about playing outside and enjoying the sunshine while it lasted. We definitely grew up in a different era. We are pretty much the last generation that enjoyed it while it lasted. I want to take a few of you back to when times were a little easier. We didn't have to worry about finals or money or anyone yelling at us for not doing our jobs. Sometimes it's easier to just imagine a time being worry free.


Remember when we all would have our special neighborhood friends who we could always depend on to hang out with after school?

Remember when summer vacation was the best because we could hang out with them all day long?

Remember when life was just as easy as having mom call you in for dinner every night?

Remember when popsicles and ice cream were your reward for a hard days work of playing all day?

Remember when the only clothing you had was covered in dirt and Play Doh?

Remember when the tests were as easy as 123?

Remembering all these things can really take you back to some moments when life didn't have to be so hard and all these things can make you realize how lucky you were to experience this when we didn't have iPhones or laptops that we had to play on all day. It is more about just realizing that life passes you by so fast and all these new and changing ideas that keep coming make you forget your past, so here's your daily reminder.

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.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
