10 Things You Miss If You Were Born In The 90's

If you were born in the 90's, you know the melancholy, nostalgic feeling you get when you think about the things you had when you were younger. Between toys, candy, cereal, tv shows, and games, somehow things aren't quite the same as when you were younger.

1. Wishing you could get slimed at Nickelodeon Studios

There's something about that colorful building and that bright green slime that was so magical, you probably begged your parents to take you there every day. Props to you if you actually went.

2. Finding out what's inside your wonder ball

After wearing your parents down and getting them to buy this cavity filled candy, you probably got all of the chocolate all over the floor trying to find out what candy was inside.

3. Playing games on cartoonnetwork.com

After you finished your homework, the first thing you did was get on that computer (probably waiting for your mom to get off the phone first) and check cartoon network for new games. I was all about the Powerpuff girls pillow fight.

4.Collecting happy meal toys

You waited all month to find out what the new happy meal was gonna be, and when you did, you begged your parents to take you there every day so you can collect every single one.

5.Getting a new game from Blockbuster

Your parents probably rented new movies from BlockBuster every week, which meant you could get them to let you come, and pick out 3 games; even though you'll probably only play half of one. (If you're like me you'll probably spend your 20's trying to finish all of those games.

6. Smelling Mr. Sketch Scented markers

You're in art class, you come in to find a box of these pretty new markers. Before you can use them, your art teacher tells you not to sniff them for more than two seconds, so you and your whole class spend an entire period passing around these markers and sniffing them anyway. The black Lickerish one never got sniffed though.

7. Playing 7-UP in school

The moment of happiness you got when it was Friday, and your teacher finally agrees to playing 7-up. Even though little billy was probably looking at your shoes when you touched his thumb, you were proud of yourself for not cheating.

8. Field day

Nothing was better than feild day. You get out of classes, you get to play games, you get pizza and ice cream, and the best part of the day was going underneath that rainbow color circle.

9. Video Now

Video now was probably the top present on your Christmas list, and when you got it, you probably spend forever rewatching the two episodes that you had. Nevermind the fact that you could really just be watching it on tv, it was always good for an hour of road trips.

10. Scholastic book fairs

You know that when you got that catalogue for the scholastic book fair, that it was time for the best week of the year. You get out of classes and take all of the money that your parents gave you, and buy whatever books and games that you wanted (even if you didn't read any of them)

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
