15 Things That Will Take You Back To Middle School In The Late 2000s
Marion Reeves

Sixth grade through eighth grade. The crazy, beautiful, fun, awkward, years of a person's life known as middle school. For some, hearing those two words makes you cringe. And for others, you would give anything to return to your middle school glory days. No matter which side of the fence you are on with those two scenarios, these things will remind you of all the good times you had as an awkward middle schooler.

1. Uggs.

The shoe of choice of every middle school girl, the second it got cold enough to wear them. Or maybe you even wore them when it wasn't cold enough.

2. Prank Calling.

Because what else would you do at a sleepover?

3. Picnik.

Before Instagram, VSCO, all of the editing apps today...we had Picnik. Edit your picture to your heart's desire...complete with the quotes of your choosing. My personal favorite from this one..."Finding a friendship like ours is like nailing jello to a tree...IMPOSSIBLE."

4. Graphic Tees.

It had to be from Aeropostale, Abercrombie, or Hollister.


5. Being upset if you weren't in someone's top friends on MySpace.

And that's how the drama started...

6. The Clique Books.

Every middle school girl had a little Massie Block in her.

7. Intramural Sports.

Intramural sports got intense. You didn't care if the game was before school. You were going to win, even at the expense of getting sweaty. *Note: my Clique reading experience and intramural sports combined, resulting in my intramural soccer team being called "The Pretty Committee." Oh boy.


8. You loved going to the movies or the mall with your friends.

Even if you went to see Twilight 6 times in theaters.

9. If you didn't forward the text to 12 people...

Good old chain texts. Gotta love em.

10. Text Message Signatures.

We all did it...I know a few of mine were along the lines of "LiVe~LaUgH~lOvE!", "RAWR! It means I love you in dinosaur (:" or something about me and whoever I was best friends with at the time.

11. You used Webcams way too much.

Gotta get the perfect profile picture!

12. These texting conversations...

Person 1: Hey

Person 2: Heyyyy

Person 1: Wats up?

Person 2: Nm u?

Person 1: Nm just chillin

13. ...which were most likely sent on this phone.

14. This iPod.

Filled with songs including: "Love Story" by Taylor Swift, "Whatcha Say" by Jason Derulo, "Big Girls Don't Cry" by Fergie, "Tik Tok" by Kesha, "One Time" by Justin Bieber, "Low" by Flo Rida, pretty much everything by Colbie Caillat, "Boom Boom Pow" by the Black Eyed Peas, the Hoedown Throwdown from Hannah Montana, and a whole plethora of other gems.

15. You had some great friends.

Some of these friends might still be your friends today, others you may not have talked to in years. But regardless, you'll never forget the fun times that were had.

Now that Halloween is over, it's time to focus on the Holiday Season. Don't get me wrong, I think Thanksgiving is great and can't wait for it, but nothing gives me greater joy than watching Freeform's 25 Days of Christmas, lighting peppermint scented candles, decking the halls, and baking gingerbread cookies. So while we approach the greatest time of the year, let's watch the 15 best Christmas movies of all time.

6 Signs You Are An English Major

There are various stereotypes about college students, most of which revolve around the concept of your major. Unfortunately, we often let stereotypes precede our own judgments, and we take what information is immediately available to us rather than forming our own opinions after considerable reflection. If I got a dollar for every time my friends have made a joke about my major I could pay my tuition. One stereotype on campus is the sensitive, overly critical and rigid English major. Here are six telltale signs you are one of them.

When you were little, your parents probably told you television makes your brain rot so you wouldn't watch it for twelve straight hours. However, I feel we can learn some pretty valuable stuff from television shows. "The Office," while a comedy, has some pretty teachable moments thrown in there. You may not know how to react in a situation where a co-worker does something crazy (like put your office supplies in jello) but thanks to "The Office," now you'll have an idea how to behave ifsomething like that should happen.

Here are just a few of the things that religious Office watchers can expect to learn.
