Everyone groans when they see that something from __ decade is coming back. Why don't we rejoice? We liked them back then, what is so wrong with liking them now? I believe that some '90s items need to be brought back.

"Why," you say? Look through my list and tell me that you don't think college students today would benefit from these "'90s items."

1. Multicolor Pens

When you are reading over your material for class; instead of using one highlighter, then putting it down and picking up a different color, you could just use this and not have to worry about the highlighter drying out while you aren’t using it.

2. Rabbit’s Foot

For some reason, whenever I had a rabbit foot, I felt like I could accomplish anything. I’m sure some of y’all need this for those tests. (DISCLAIMER: If you don’t study; you won’t pass. A Rabbit Foot cannot replace studying.)

3. MASH

One way to determine your future if you choose a particular major. You can determine the different outcomes that the job can impact.

4. Oregon Trail

This game taught you patience. Now, look at how impatient we are when an ad pops up during a game we are playing on our phones. I know I cannot wait until that dang x pops up.

5. Garfield Glasses

Life is so much better when you can laugh. These will help you get through your day.

6. Brain Quest

Yes, sometimes our classes challenge our mind but often times, our brain doesn’t get challenged enough anymore. I mean, we Google when we don’t know something instead of researching it ourselves. Enter Brain Quest.

7. Crayola Mini Stamps Markers

This would make your notes more entertaining to study! Or make note-taking so much more interesting...

8. Tamagotchi

There still isn’t an app like this game out there. If we were only as diligent in our school work as we were feeding this little guy…

9. Inline Skates

Remember that morning that your alarm didn’t go off so you woke up late, had to run to the bus stop, ride the bus that dropped you off nowhere near your class, and then you had to run? Imagine how much quicker it would be to skate your way there.

10. Cootie Catcher


You can use this to determine how you are going to spend money. Or what you are going to eat...
"Red. 3. 8. Ramen Noodles it is."

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
