Maybe I was just really dorky... Probably. Regardless, I am a firm believer that my generation (those who grew up in the early 2000s) had the greatest television and toys. Take a moment, read this article, and reminisce about these gems.

1. "Lizzie McGuire"

The golden child of pre-teen drama, "Lizzie McGuire" taught me everything: From boys to bras to falling in love in Rome. It was 100% the best show on after school, by far.

2. "CatDog"

"CatDog" was so weird. But it did always deliver a laugh and always kept you wondering how that animal worked, biologically.

"Kim Possible"

KIM WAS THE OG GIRL BOSS. She was a spy, cheerleader, and teenage girl... Can you scream "early 2000s" any louder?

4. Tamagotchi 

THIS WAS THE DEFINITION OF COOL KID'S TOY. I remember that all the cool girls in elementary school always had their Tamagotchis. If you wanted to sit with the cool girls, you best have one, too. Tamagotchis were little key chains that housed blob that you needed to feed, play with, and create its house... Or it would die. Yikes. But they were super cool.

5. Walkman 

I thought I was so cool when I would play my new CD. I would eagerly buy CDs and put them in my hot pink portable CD player. I mean, the iPod nano wasn't even out yet. I feel so old and I'm not even 20, yet.

6. Silly Bandz

EVERYONE HAD SILLY BANZ. EVERYONE TRADED SILLY BANZ. It's simple science–the higher the bands went up your arms, the cooler you were.

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

If you’re anything like me, you love a good cup of coffee. My coffee always comes from Starbucks; I refuse to drink it from anywhere else. Over the years, it’s become one of my biggest addictions. So, if you are aware that you’re a Starbucks addict as well, or maybe you need to check to see if you’re an addict, here are seven ways to tell.

College involves a whirlwind of emotions, whether it’s from the stress of an assignment (or twenty), or from fighting with your roommate. It can be overwhelming at times and it’s important to take a step a back and calmly think things over. Maybe gain some perspective. The following aren’t foolproof tips and may not apply to you, but I was able to find success with them (hope you do too!)
