15 Biggest First World Struggles Of A 90s Baby

15. Your computer taking over an hour for Barbie.com to load

This is what the internet was truly created for!

14. McDonald’s giving you a toy that you already have

I always tried to collect all the toys

13. Someone forgot to rewind the VHS or cassette tape

It is actually pretty sad that today’s children won’t be able to know what it feels like to own one of these magical orange tapes

12. Blockbuster did not have the movie you came there for

Before we had Netflix, we had Blockbuster!

11. Cartoon Network canceled your favorite show

And then tried to make an awful reboot ten years later…

Like seriously though, do not try to ruin Powerpuff Girls or Teen Titans for us

10. When Steve left Blue’s Clues

That was such a sad day for all of us 90s babies

9. And when they replaced Marnie in the final Halloweentown movie

And Disney Channel did not think we would notice…

8. When Jamie-Lynn Spears got pregnant which ended Zoey 101

I was the only one in my friend group who was still allowed to watch that show after she got pregnant

7. Getting injured by your Razor Scooter

I still have scars from this thing

6. Taco Bell messed up your order

This is and will always be a struggle for me, even today as an adult

5. Chick-fil-A being closed on Sundays

Why is it that I always craved that place the most on Sundays…

4. Your Webkinz code didn’t work

Webkinz, in general, was just full of struggles, but we all loved it anyway!

3. And while on the topic of Webkinz, whenever you went all the way to Hallmark just to find out that they are all sold out of Webkinz

My best friend from elementary school and I were in a competition to see who had the most Webkinz. I lost.

2. Burning yourself with your Easy Bake oven

I think we all wanted this for Christmas as a kid

1.Stepping on a Lego

WORST PAIN EVER!

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. 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.

It's easier than you think.

"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. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. 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?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week. For some students, it's their first time in the library all semester, maybe ever. Others have slaved away many nights under the fluorescent lights, and are slightly annoyed to find their study space being invaded by amateurs. While these newbies wander aimlessly around the first floor, hopelessly trying to find a table, the OGs of the library are already on the third floor long tables deep into their studies. Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
