12 Things From Your Childhood That Are Still Awesome

MTV

Technological innovations have made present day so much different from our childhood. With things like the iPhone, Macbook and so on, we have lost sight of all the beautiful things in our past! Here are some things that shouldn't be forgotten!

1. Friends

The original besties, our on-screen family. Let's face it, "Friends" will always be our favorite show. The original humor and quick wit cast has a way of captivating us and warming our hearts. PTL for re-runs!!

2. Skip- It

The best way to exercise without realizing it. If you could get more than 10 skips in, then you were a pro. I might actually workout if we bring these back!

3. Hit Clips

Save your iPhone storage and battery ,and break out those Hit Clips again! Also, please play NSYNC as your first song, promise you won't regret it!

4. Razzles

If you've seen "13 Going on 30," then you know that razzles are still the bomb. Thank you to Jenna Rink for reminding us of our favorite candy!

5. Disney Movies

Beyond thankful for Disney's live action remakes bringing our favorite classics to life! I really hope Pocahontas and Snow White are next on the list!

6. Scrunchies

I don't care what you say, these work the best and are highly unappreciated! Plus, they're cute!

7. Yoo-hoo

The best chocolate drink there will ever be, of course. They're still around, but the boxed yoohoos should be in everyone's home.. no further discussion!

8. Fresh Prince of Bell-Air

This will forever be how I remember Will Smith. I applaud him on his wide variety of films and growth in acting ability, but nothing will ever beat fresh Will! Again, PTL for re-runs!

9. Wonder Balls

WHERE ARE THESE THINGS?!? Bring them back NOW!

10. Lizzie McGuire

Still wanting my own cartooned conscience like Lizzie's, and the movie!! Singing "This Is What Dreams Are Made Of" currently.

11. Barbies

Before the days of reality tv, this is where the magic happened. Barbie and Ken were always in a fight, and Theresa and Barbie were constantly hitting the city in the platinum Barbie convertible.. Ah! Those were the days!

12. Jesse McCartney

Dude, Jess, where are you? I know she's no me, but I need to hear a 2016 remake to remind me!

Living Away From Home, As Described By 'Friends'

For better or for worse

"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!

No matter how long your class is, there's always time for the mind to wander. Much like taking a shower or trying to fall asleep, sitting in a classroom can be a time when you get some of your best ideas. But, more than likely, you're probably just trying to mentally cope with listening to a boring lecturer drone on and on. Perhaps some of the following Aristotle-esque thoughts have popped into your head during class.

Adult Swim

Bob's Burgers is arguably one of the best and most well-written shows on tv today. That, and it's just plain hilarious. From Louise's crazy antics to Tina's deadpan self-confidence, whether they are planning ways to take over school or craft better burgers, the Belchers know how to have fun. They may not be anywhere close to organized or put together, but they do offer up some wise words once and awhile.
