25 Things We Miss From Childhood

Once I was seven years old.

May 02, 2016

Do you ever think about your childhood and the wonders you had? I miss the days where everything was simple but where we had awesome snacks and toys. Here are things that my generation love and miss.

1. Wonder Balls

What's on the inside?

2. Bop It

The faster you went the cooler you were!

4. Mighty Beanz

If you were anything like me you owned this blue case and had to own all of them!

5. Crazy Bones

Playing games with these was a blast! I love them and miss them.

6. Wacky Packs

7. Garbage Pail Kids

8. Tamagotchi

9. Hit Clips

I wanted every single song possible. I don't care how long they were I had to have them all.

10. Skip It

These toys were awesome. I remember putting it on my ankle and if I didn't jump in time, just getting bruises. But it was a lot of fun and I would love to own one again!

11. VCR Tapes

I had to own all of the Disney movies so I could re-watch them over and over again. I think my parents got sick of them and are happy they no longer exist.

12. Nintendo DS

I had to have every single game and the newest one. Honestly I almost made my parents get me a new one because I miss it so much.

13. Game Boy

13b. Gameboy Advance

13c. The Game Boy Advance SP

14. N64

Why can't we go back to using these?!

15. Backstreet Boys

Bye bye ):

16. NSYNC

They still have a website? Are you trying to make me cry? And choose between them and Backstreet boys what are you doing to me?!

17. OLD Disney Channel

Where is my "That's So Raven" and "Lizzie Mcguire?

18. Video Now

19. Bratz

You had to have all of them for all of your friends to play with.

20. Polly Pockets

I had all of the dolls and the airplane and I would NEVER let anyone touch that airplane it was precious.

21. Socker Boppers

The old school way of taking aggression out on friends/family/siblings.

22. L'OREAL Kids

These smelt the best and I love them. But no tears? We all know if we got it in our eye it hurt like a b*tch.

23. Tooth Tunes

My favorite one were the Jonas Brothers and Camp Rock. I jammed out to those things even when I wasn't brushing my teeth.

24. Word Art

The best part about school projects was picking which word art you wanted to use. I remember figuring out how to change the colors and my life changed.

25. Beanie Babies

I collected all of the possible ones that I could. You see that silver cat there? Her name is silver. We all know that we had like every single one and tried to keep the tags on. And when their birthday came around we sure as h*ll celebrated them.

What are you doing to us? Where are all of these wonderful things??? I can't stop thinking about everything that I miss. Stay tuned for a part two!

When you were little, your parents probably told you television makes your brain rot so you wouldn't watch it for twelve straight hours. However, I feel we can learn some pretty valuable stuff from television shows. "The Office," while a comedy, has some pretty teachable moments thrown in there. You may not know how to react in a situation where a co-worker does something crazy (like put your office supplies in jello) but thanks to "The Office," now you'll have an idea how to behave ifsomething like that should happen.

Here are just a few of the things that religious Office watchers can expect to learn.

High School And College Sucked All Of The Fun Out Of Reading

Books were always about understanding for me, about learning the way someone else sees, about connection.

High School And College Sucked All Of The Fun Out Of Reading

I keep making this joke whenever the idea of books is brought up: "God, I wish I knew how to read." It runs parallel to another stupid phrase, as I watch my friends struggle through their calculus classes late at night in our floor lounge: "I hope this is the year that I learn to count." They're both truly idiotic expressions, but, when I consider the former, I sometimes wonder if there's some truth to it.

"The Office" is a mockumentary based on everyday office life featuring love triangles, silly pranks and everything in between. It can get pretty crazy for just an average day at the office.

The good old days are always happening now, so live in the moment.

“Bears. Beets. Battlestar Galactica” are the three most important topics one can talk about.

The Dundies are cooler than the Oscars.

Everybody has a Toby, and they are just someone you have to learn to deal with.

Group pictures are hard to take (especially jumping pics).

It's never too early to eat ice cream.

Schrute’s are always prepared for anything.

Except pop culture references...

Holidays are important and a very good reason to host any kind of party.

There will always be cynical co-workers to deal with.

Putting things in Jell-O is a great use of your time.

Sometimes funny voices and personas make awkward situations easier (just ask Prison Mike).

That places you may not always love can bring you the people you love.

Determination is an important characteristic to possess.

Sarcasm is essential in everyday life.

Love can be really weird.

At Halloween time, it is trivial to come with your best costume ready.

Friendship is long lasting no matter where the future takes you.

Pranks are funny no matter the age.

Goodbyes are hard, but reunions are worth it.

Blogs are confusing.

"That's what she said" jokes will never get old.

Jim Halpert can say so much with just a look at the camera.

Bros should always come before hoes because...

Declaring bankruptcy isn't as hard as we all thought.

Office places can be weird and stressful at times.

Michael Scott loves Dunder Mifflin and the Scranton Office more than anything.

"The Office" truly does have a lot that it can teach us.

Ah, pre-med: home of the dead at heart.

1. You have forsaken all your friends for coffee.

2. 8 hours of sleep? Try 4 instead.

3. Everyone asks you for medical advice, even though you’re not a doctor yet.

4. Your second home is the library.

5. Almost all of your nightmares are about school and exams.

6. You don’t see the problem with taking 3 technicals in one semester.

7. Research, research, research, research, research.

8. You volunteer more than any of your friends.

9. You like going to labs more than going to lecture.

10. But, you know it’ll all be worth the struggle the day you don that white coat and call yourself a doctor.

Books were always about understanding for me, about learning the way someone else sees, about connection.

It's not just business as usual.

Constantly having to dress business formal.

Group projects.

Applying for internships.

Being told your major is easy.

You just want to be rich already.

Explaining to people why you're a business major.

Using LinkedIn like it's Facebook.

You grow up too fast.
