Today's children's TV will never compare to the kind of shows my generation had

As a nanny, I watch about an hour to two of television with the kids and it always makes me wonder if any of today's or the future's television shows will ever compare to what we had available in the past. I don't really remember much about the quality of TV I watched when I was a toddler or at a young elementary age, but around 8-10 years old was the TV that I always think about and miss. Here are my three favorite childhood TV shows.

1. Hannah Montana

Today's kids will never know how cool of a concept this show was. Even though it was incredibly unrealistic, it was still so entertaining. I always got frustrated that no one was able to put together how much Miley and Lily looked like their "celebrity versions" but hey, the show wouldn't be able to go on for much longer if everyone found out and I'm glad about that.

2. Drake & Josh

This show was absolutely iconic. In fact, I watched a few episodes on Hulu the other day just to bring back some good ol' childhood memories. Thank goodness for streaming sites that still let people watch the shows they loved as kids.

3. The Suite Life of Zack and Cody

Out of all three on this list, this was my ALL TIME favorite television show as a kid. I honestly could watch a few episodes today, as a 21-year-old with a much more mature sense of humor. All I know is, Zack was so dreamy to me, and Ashley Tisdale was everything. This was the one show where I would look forward to a new episode each week. I would go to school and talk to my friends talking about my excitement built from the previews shown whenever a new episode would be released.

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.

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.
