15 Things I Want To Bring Back

We all wish for specific things to be brought back. Whether we wish for simpler times, old sources of humor, trends that have faded out, or for an iconic musician to still be alive. This past week the hashtag #IWantToBringBack was trending, therefore I wish for these 15 things to be brought back.

1. Mandatory awkward pre-teen phase

Since when do twelve and thirteen year-old girls look eighteen? I am mandating everyone endures some type of embarrassing phase. Emo? Perfect. Thought your make-up looked good for too long? Awesome. Thought you were good at singing? Count yourself in. Wore silly bands and had feathers in your hair? Winning.

2. The Obamas

Ya'll were too good. Sadly many Americans followed the "you don't realize what you have until it's gone" train. Come back???

3. Our ozone layer

It's only essential to a promising future for our generation's children and so on. Global warming? Never....... The polar bears never liked the snow anyways.

4. Chronological Instagram feed

5. Old Disney

6. The Office


There is no other show with such uniquely hilarious characters. All senses of humor are presented.

7. Amy Winehouse

Amy... Your music in unlike any other artist's. Your pearly whites have to be one of the most beautiful sets of teeth. Your hair was so full, luscious, and iconic. Winged-eyeliner was brought back, I wish you could be too.

8. Lower cost for education

9. Dance Dance Revolution

I cannot dance, but DDR is my sh*t.

10. Avril Lavigne

If you've read this twitter thread, you get the joke.

11. Snapchat's "best friends" list

If you had a Snapchat when there was still a "best friends" list, and you say you were never bothered by seeing someone's list, you're lying.

12. Nap time


Bring it back. Forget bringing sexy back, I need my nap time.

13. Chivalry



14. Flappy bird


We all admit the game was intense, but the game was taken too far... Hence it had to be taken down. Honestly, if I had a dollar for every time I hit one of the green poles before my score was even three, I'd be rich.

15. Kermit memes


The roasts that arose from the shade thrown passively at someone with the side dish of, "But that's none of my business though...." were legendary.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
