What was the best part of the 90s? The clothing trends that popped up, the food, the toys and games, or the people born? You take your pick, but in case you forgot some of the awesome experiences 90s children got, here is a list.

1. Remeber that rainbow parachute that got everyone excited the moment it was taken out? Yes, you do. Don't even deny it.

2. How about those wonderballs? Where did they go? Did they fall off the face of the earth?

3. Gouchos. Enough said..

4. Red Rover Red Rover send the weakest one over. Happened every time.

5. The only toy where you can smack your anklebone and want to keep going because it was the best toy ever--skip it.

6. You were the cool chick on the block if you had a pair of these babies.

7. Apparently trix yougurt is only for kids too. Where did they go?

8. Tamagotchi. These things were the bomb, but failed to make it past childhood.

9. Nothing better than playing your nintendo game boy while waiting for your mom to finish talking at the grocery store.

10. Never know why this ever came about, but I can confess I had one and I thought it was pretty dang cool having my hair wrapped in string and beads.

11. Baby bottle pop, baby bottle pop.

12. Can't say I ever had a pair, but definitely was jealous of the people who would roll down the hallway at school.

Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you.

You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
