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!

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.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
