25 Things We Miss From Childhood

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!

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.
