5 Things That Will Give You Late 90's/Early 2000s Nostalgia

It’s definitely a bittersweet feeling most often than not, nostalgia that is. Of course there are certain things that trigger memories that aren’t so much cute as they are awkward but that’s another thing. Certain smells or pictures can bring the blast from the past so quick in us it’s a wonder we ever forgot about them in the first place. Here are some of my nostalgic things that remind me of living in LA in the late 90’s and early 2000s.

1. Candy, candy, candy

Baby bottle pop, zebra gum, pop rocks, and more! And the color palettes always scream the era they were made in.

2. Fog machines and strobe lights

An LA party was not complete without these two items along with an upcoming DJ who was probably the cousin or uncle of the family.

3. M U S I C

Blink 182, NSYNC, Avril Lavigne, P!nk, Britney Spears, and oh…sooo many more.

(4.) Just a look at the clothes in the music videos really brings us back too.

5. Makeup and Fragrances

Lip glosses with a cheap smell of cherry but all the package appeal of what trendy girls of that era were. The cool thing was that you could get them at places ranging from the mall to the swap-meets.

The dynamics of any friend group are usually determined by the personalities which make it up. Chances are, while personalities may overlap, each person in your friend group holds his or her own place. It is the differences which bring the groups together and keep them functioning. No matter how functionally dysfunctional your friend group may be, if you're anything like me, you feel absolutely blessed to have found such a wonderful group of humans to call "your people." Here is what your friend group might look like if they were Disney princesses (and that wasn't just a thing you all pretended in your heads):

1. The wait for Buffalo Wild Wings is always going to be long on Thursday nights.

As hard as we try, it's nearly impossible to resist the 69-cent wings on a college student budget. Plus, they are always delicious!
