Only 90s Kids Remember

15 things that made your childhood.

Jun 27, 2016

For the past couple of years, there has been a running joke that all babies born between 1990 and 1999 are the only people who remember popular things from that time. This trend has taken to all social media platforms, including the infamous Twitter account that tweets out pictures of all the objects that supposedly "only 90s kids remember." Here are a few of popular 90s items that our childhoods were not complete without.

1. Wonder Balls

What could ever be better than eat chocolate and finding prizes inside?

2. Hit Clips

Even though they only played less than a minute of your favorite songs, Hit Clips were the original iPod and you wouldn't leave the house without yours.

3. Blockbuster

Before Netflix could stream movies right to your TV, you had to go to the store to rent them. And also rewind them before returning them. Because yes, you are that old that you were alive before you could watch a movie multiple times without having to manually rewind it.

4. The Original Flappy Bird

Just looking at this picture brings back memories of sitting in the waiting room of the dentist's office. This game always brought out your competitive side.

5. Push-up Pencils

If you lost one of these, you were out of luck.

6. Rainbow Click Pens

We all tried to click down multiple colors at once, subsequently breaking the pen and having to beg our parents to buy us a new one.

7. Tamagotchis

Taking care of one of these was your main focus in life...until they were banned from school and you were forced to neglect your babies.

8. Razor Cell Phones

Having one of these made you the coolest kid on the block.

9. Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen Movie

Every. Single. One.

10. Fanny Packs

You were the most stylish kid on your school field trip to the zoo when you wore one of these...or so you thought. Sadly, fanny packs are making a comeback.

11. That's So Suite Life of Hannah Montana

Your every childhood dream fulfilled in one incredible television episode.

12. Slap Bracelets

Admit it, you felt like a total badass slapping one of these babies on.

13. Gauchos

These were your most comfortable pants. Unfortunately, they were also your ugliest.

14. Furbies

Your favorite furry friend.

15. Heelys

You know you wish you had a pair to roll around your college campus with.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week. It's the one time of year in which the library becomes over populated and mental breakdowns are most frequent. There is no way to avoid it or a cure for the pain that it brings. All we can do is hunker down with our books, order some Dominos, and pray that it will all be over soon. Luckily, we are not alone in this suffering. To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
