Shows of the Past

Childhood shows that cannot be forgotten!

Shows of the Past

As a college student, I often find myself looking back to the past and lamenting that the shows I watched are now nonexistent or unheard of. So, although it isn’t Friday, let’s have a little flashback!

  • 1)The Wild Thornberrys: A family of documentary filmmakers, a girl that can converse with animals and a pet Chimpanzee… what more could you ask for?
  • 2)Kim Possible: If you haven’t heard of Kim Possible your childhood was bleak. She was tough and determined in every circumstance. She was pretty much the perfect role model.
  • 3)The Powerpuff Girls: Sugar, spice and everything nice. Blossom, Bubbles, and Buttercup defeat crime while looking cute as buttons. (Yes children, there was a Powerpuff Girls before your substandard remake.)
  • 4)Dragon Tails: “I wish, I wish, with all my heart, to fly with dragons in a land apart.” There is absolutely no way you watched this show without wanting to meet a friendly dragon.
  • 5)Dexter’s Laboratory: An eccentric sister terrorizes her genius brother and his experiments.
  • 6)Courage the Cowardly Dog: One oblivious grandma, one nasty grandpa, and a dog that notices everything and is terrified of it all.
  • 7)Codename Kids Next Door: Young kids that are part of a secret society run and organized by children. Plus, it’s all run inside of treehouses so it’s a child’s dream show.
  • 8)That’s So Raven: I always wanted to be able to see into the future after watching this show.
  • 9)Suite Life of Zach and Cody: Yes, there was an amazing show before Suite Life on Deck. It was all about the shenanigans of the twins inside the hotel in which they lived.
  • 10)The Proud Family: Penny Proud is a growing teen that has much in life to experience. This show is about her everyday adventures in growing up in a family that is very involved in her life.

I hope you enjoyed part one of this two part series! Did your favorite childhood show make the cut?

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

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.
