I've went all these years without seeing Wizard Kelly's face.

8 TV Shows And Movies That Defined My Childhood

As a child, I grew up in a time where we pretended the floor was lava, thought "talk to the hand" was the best defense, and our worst enemy was a metal slide at 3pm on a hot day. Along with these memories and many more, I can't help but think about a few of my favorite tv shows and movies that seem to have gotten lost in time so let us reminisce.

1. The Land Before Time

These movies literally defined my childhood. I can't imagine life without Littlefoot, Cera, Petrie, Spike, and we can't forget Ducky and her hefty appetite for treestars.

2. The Proud Family

How can we forget Penny Proud? We loved her, Suga Mama, and the rest of the family. We always wondered why we never saw Wizard Kelly's face, and we developed a deep hatred for the Gross sisters.

3. Zoey 101

Ah, Zoey 101. The show that gave me hope that one day I would go to a school as awesome as PCA. I'll forever be upset that Jamie Lynn Spears got pregnant resulting in the show being canceled.

4. The Brave Little Toaster

Who knew that a vacuum, toaster, blanket, lamp, and radio traveling around would have so much impact on my childhood.

5. Ned's Declassified School Survival Guide

How would I have ever survived school without Ned Bigby's helpful tips?

6. That's So Raven

Raven Baxter is me. Oh snap.

7. The Amanda Show

This show made me laugh more growing up than anything else I can think of. Also we can't forget my favorite skit. GIRLS ROOM.

8. Maggie And The Ferocious Beast

I swear they pulled everything out of that cardboard box.

Today's kids TV shows and movies have changed so much over the years. When I turn the channel to Cartoon Network or Disney Channel, I tell myself that I was either just an oblivious kid to horrible acting or the shows have just changed so much. To this day, I still get excited when someone brings up these shows, and I probably always will.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
