I’ve got Halloween on the brain, and of course with this holiday comes a sweet tooth. Let’s look at some scary good treats from the 90s that we may have forgotten all about!

Runts were the only way our young bodies could consume “fruits” without making our parents proud. These candies were available for a quarter a handful at almost any gas station, hair salon, or the like.

The Wonder Ball was truly a wonder. Chocolate, Nickelodeon, AND candy? After making it through the chocolate shell, candies and goods awaited us inside.

Push Pop was one of the classics. This re-sealable pop had a cap and clip, so we could attach it to our backpacks and keep going.

Squeeze Pop’s were a messy, guilty pleasure. Why get goo-filled candy when you can just buy the goo?

The Baby Bottle Pop lollipop and powder duo, mimicking a baby’s bottle, was almost as well known as it’s catchy TV jingle.

Chiclets combined bubble gum with extra fun. If you were anything like me, you had Chiclet teeth more than one time throughout your childhood.

My personal favorite, the LollyPop Paint Shop, was another lollipop and powder duo. This one was mimicking a paintbrush and gallon of paint.


The 90s were a great time for clothes, hair, television, AND candy! Sorry for the nostalgia, guys!

It's not all morning coffees and singing along to the radio.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter
morethanwheels

I've been in college for four years now. I spent half my time as a commuter and half as a resident so I've experienced both sides of the housing spectrum. One thing I've learned comparing the two is that my struggles as a commuter far outweigh anything I went through while living on campus. Commuters have to deal with the problems school brings along with a slew of other issues; I've filled up my gas tank in the worst kind of weather conditions and napped in random places in public more times than I'm proud to say of. This is a list of some of the most challenging aspects of being a commuter.
