6 Grade School Fads We Really Miss

If you were in grade school school during the early 2000s then there's a really good chance you had one or all of these.

1. Mighty Beans

There was nothing more fun than trading these little bad boys with your friends on the school yard. opening up your zippered collection and replacing them in their little holders.

2. Hollister Zip Up Sweaters

Let's be real we all went through the "Hollister is the coolest store in the world". In elementary school if you didn't have a Hollister sweater, then you were doing something wrong.

3. Tamagotchi's

Literally one of the greatest toys ever, am I right?! Everyone had one or more of these. I remember hiding them in my pencil case during class just to feed them. They were so addicting me and my friends couldn't put them down. And every time a new generation came out we were always the first to go to Toys R Us and get it!

4. GameCube

One of the best video game systems, you could watch tv with it, play GameBoy games, etc. I remember so much time sitting around a tv playing Super Monkey Ball and Sims.

5. Water yoyo's

These were a kind of short lived fad because they eventually came out to be poisonous or so I remember. BUT when they had their time every kid in the school year had one wrapped around their finger.

6. Webkinz

My friends and I had probably over 50 Webkinz each, if they weren't your life did you have a childhood!? Spending hours playing online with your stuffed animals definitely started a lot of our internet obsessions.

People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.

I'm an anthropology major, and I love every minute of it. I couldn't tell you why, but I guess there's just something about studying different lifestyles that absolutely fascinates me. But anthropology majors definitely have our weird sides, especially when you go to a school that is filled with mostly Business and Bio majors. But us weirdos definitely have a lot in common, specifically these 16 things.

pale girl

Everyone has insecurities, that's just a fact. You didn't ask to be born this way. You didn't ask to inherit the one trait no one else in your family has. And you definitely didn't ask to be this ghostly white. But as soon as you've learned to live with it for a while (less wrinkles later on in life, right? right???) someone has to ruin it for you. They have to flaunt they're perfectly tanned body from Spring Break and hold their sun-kissed skin against yours. But I've had enough... here are the things that perpetually pale individuals are tired of hearing.
