I was born in the late 90s, but I definitely consider myself to be a 2000s kid. These are a few things I think of when I think back on the 2000s and my childhood, and I hope they're relatable to you too and put a nostalgic smile on your face!
1. You Were Obsessed With Hilary Duff
She starred in one of your favorite TV shows and so many of your favorite movies: "Lizzie McGuire", "A Cinderella Story", "Cheaper by the Dozen", "Cadet Kelly", "Material Girls", and many more. You also owned all of her CDs and still know every word to "Come Clean" and "So Yesterday". What a queen.
2. Limited Too (And Eventually Justice) Was Your Go-To Store
It was your one-stop shop for all of your bathing suits, graphic tees, and jewelry.
3. Floam Fantasized You
The science behind it didn't make sense to you, but those commercials worked, and you wanted some. Bad.
4. You Owned Every Mary Kate And Ashley Movie
From "It Takes Two" to "New York Minute," these sisters had you hooked.
5. Your Favorite Books Were Amelia Bedelia, Junie B. Jones, Or Magic Tree House
Your love for reading started with these classic pieces of literature.
6. You Asked For A New American Girl Doll Every Birthday/Christmas
You also had to have the accessories such as the bed, puppy, and plenty of outfits. I mean...your dolls only deserved the best.
7. You Were Jealous Of Everyone Who Had A Razr
You definitely tried to convince your parents that you needed one.
8. Troy And Gabriella Were Your First #RelationshipGoals
HSM had you way too excited for high school.
9. Zoey 101 Made You Want A Jet X
You wanted a pink one, just like Zoey!
10. Disney Channel Crossovers Were Basically Your Favorite Thing Ever
Sweet niblets! No running in my lobby, ya nasty!
11. You Spent Your Afternoons Playing Online With Your Webkinz
Webkinz was so much better than Club Penguin. Don't fight me on this.
12. You Begged Your Parents For Tickets To The Hannah Montana/Miley Cyrus Best Of Both Worlds Tour
Miley Cyrus was at her prime as Hannah. The Jonas Brothers (aka the dreamiest boys in all of the land) were the opening act. You couldn't have dreamed of anything better. You tried to get tickets, but the show sold out almost instantly, and you had to settle for watching it on TV. If you're anything like me, you're still a little salty about it.
13. On That Note, You And Your Friends Each Had A Favorite Jonas Brother
Joe was obviously the best.
14. You Eventually Traded In Your Gameboy For A Nintendo DS
You definitely used PictoChat to message your friends that were in the same room as you.
Thank you for the memories, 2000s!
