10 Reasons Why The '90s Was The Best Decade Ever
Key Word Suggestions

We all know the people who had the most fun in life lived in the '90s. There's no argument that it's THE GREATEST decade by far, but if you still have doubts, here's 10 reminders why the '90s were the best.

1. The music

Don't get me wrong, rap is good, but when you really want to jam out you turn on some classic 90's music. Cue Brittney Spears and U2.

2. The dances

The best part of any large get together is still when the Electric Slide comes on. Don't forget the Macarena and Cotton Eyed Joe.

3. Grunge

There's nothing comfier than a nice, large flannel. Plus you can throw on almost anything in the morning and call it fashion. Win-win.

4. The best sitcoms

Why are there always reruns from the 90's playing? Because shows like Full House, Seinfeld, and Friends existed. Not gonna lie if you don't have a girl-crush on Jennifer Aniston there's something seriously wrong with you and you should seek medical attention immediately.

5. Social media didn't exist

The 90's were ideal because just the right amount of technology existed. There were all the necessities like electricity, indoor plumbing, and air conditioning, but it was before everyone became obsessed with social media and forgot how to communicate with one another.

6. Cute dancing boys

Boy bands were all the rage in the 90's, which meant you could watch cute dancing boys on TV and pretend like they were serenading you.

7. It was still cool to read books

Hobbies include: staying in and reading a good book all day.

8. Fanny packs!!!

Okay, to be honest, I don't know why these were a fad. They're fun and practical! What more could you ask for?!?!


9. Rollerblading and milkshake dates

This is probably the cutest thing ever. Like I want a cute boy to ask me to share and milkshake with them, then grab my hand as we're skating around the rink.

10. Chokers.

They're back. And I love it.

In honor of Mother’s Day, I have been thinking of all the things my mom does for my family and me. Although I couldn’t write nearly all of them, here are a few things that moms do for us.

They find that shirt that’s right in front of you, but just you can’t seem to find.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
