You know you killed the game when you owned each of these things as a teen...

Five Ways To Know You Killed The Middle School Game

5 ways to know you killed the middle school game:

1. You insisted on having rainbow braces:

Because one or two colors weren’t enough, you had your orthodontist put the whole rainbow in your mouth. There was no better feeling than having both friends and strangers come up to you complimenting your new look. If that feeling wasn’t similar to cloud 9, then what is?

2. You lived in your Juicy Couture sweatsuits:

Growing up, you felt the need to own not only one, but multiple juicy sweatsuits. Because owning a black one wasn’t enough, you had your parents buy you an array of baby blue, hot pink, lime green and neon yellow sweatsuits (as well as juicy pocketbooks and charm bracelets to obviously complete the look.)

3. You also loved to rep Ed Hardy:

Honestly, you’re probably unsure of what you were thinking when you wore some clothes designed by Christian Audigier, but you do know that you felt cool at the time. You owned and wore so many of his products that you were basically a walking advertisement.

4. Oh, and don’t forgot the colored Uggs:

Because owning a pair with the buttons on the side wasn’t enough. You couldn’t have been more obnoxious wearing a pink, purple and blue pair in sixth grade.

Last but not least-

5. Your butter sweatshirts were some of your most prized possessions:

Looking back on this now, you feel so bad for convincing your mom to spend $100 on a sweatshirt that had studs on the sleeves and weird sayings on the back. We all knew we would never wear them after we graduated anyways.

When I was learning how to talk, I was taught both Portuguese and English at the same time. In elementary school, I started taking mandatory Spanish classes, which I did well in because of my knowledge of Portuguese. Then in high school, on top of taking Spanish, I also started taking French. Now, in college, already fluent in English and Portuguese, I'm in the process of becoming fluent in Spanish, and I have a standard high school level understanding of French.

I am without a doubt one of those people who refuses to start decorating for Christmas or listen to Christmas music until after Thanksgiving. Unfortunately, Thanksgiving has become an underrated holiday over the years. You barely see any Thanksgiving decorations in stores; it's like they skip right from Halloween to Christmas.
