17 Things You Forgot You Loved During The '90s
Collage by Katelyn Esparza

As my second year of college comes to an end, it is hard to believe how quickly the time has gone by! It seems like just yesterday I was making Kool-Aid with my mom and listening to The Backstreet Boys! Time flies, and here are some nostalgia-inducing images to remind you just how far you've come!

1. When Trix cereal was shaped like tiny fruit.


2. Trying not to lose any of the pieces from you Polly Pocket collection (and failing miserably).


3. Having to remember to rewind your Blockbuster rental to avoid getting fined.



4. Having that one friend who always had the newest, coolest toys.



5. Trying to enjoy Bubble Jug even though it always just fell apart in your mouth.



6. Gel pens that always seemed to be out of ink, even when they were brand new.



7. Developing trust issues because the label said "No Tears" and yet, your eyes were always burning.



8. These. Everywhere.


9. Playing "McDonald's" because you secretly thought it could be cool to work at a fast-food restaurant.




10. Getting in trouble when you tried to iron these without your parents' help.


11. Tang.



12. The risk that came from playing with a Skip It, because if that thing hit your ankle you were done.



13. Being totally jealous of that girl down the street who had a Barbie Jeep!



14. Never having quite as much fun with your Easy-Bake Oven as the kids from the commercial. And why did their stuff always come out so much better than yours?



15. The "advanced technology" behind the Poo-Chi toy.



16. Begging your parents for a Video Now.


17. Extremely colorful food that was never as delicious as you imagined it would be.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
