5 Snacks All 90's Kids Had

If you were born between 1990-1999, you have definitely had your fair share of awkward fashion stages, weird music taste, and "of course" iconic necessary snacks. Certain snacks in your old-school, tin cartoon lunchbox would automatically make you '"cool" and have everyone begging for a piece or two. It's most likely that these snacks don't even exist anymore, but us 90's kids had the lucky opportunity of living in a time when they were accessible.

1. Trix Yogurt

"Silly Rabbit, Trix are for kids" We all loved that cute white bunny who always tried to steal the kids' yogurt in each commercial.. ah memories.

2. Fruit Roll-Up

If you were really lucky and your mom or dad would treat you to this snack in your lunchbox at least twice a week, which ultimately meant you were the coolest kid at lunch that day.

3. Bubble Tape

Even though almost no school allowed kids to chew gum you always had to have it with you for when school was out. If you had this very specific gum there was no way you were going to get away without sharing. Almost everyone would bombard you asking for a strip because it was the best gum there was!

4. Dunkaroos

The holiest of snacks. The Holy Grail if you will, the most delicious, coolest, hippest, most fun snack there ever was. To get this snack in your lunchbox was a privilege and honor.

5. Kool-Aid Bursts

Convincing your parents to buy this special treat was nearly impossible and 9 out of 10 times they were going to say no. There was just no way of justifying that it was actually made out of real fruit. But if you were a lucky one, every once in a while your parents would surprise you with the most popular drink there was!

We all want to go back to the time when eating unhealthy snacks didn't matter and didn't make you panic about having to go to the gym, and you didn't worry so much about your health because that was your parents job! Reminiscing on the old days on how innocent you were and how much easier life seemed. Thankfully, now we can get whatever snacks we want without having to ask our parents permission-- yay for adulthood!

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
