The 90's are Making a Comeback

The 90's are Making a Comeback
JNCO

The millennials' childhood is returning to them. Everywhere I look I see coloring books made for adults and merchandise from television shows that have long been over. Even Wonderballs made a return to the shelves after they were deemed illegal for quite some years. It seems like elementary and middle school trends are returning to those of us who were born in the good old 1990s. From food to clothing to remakes of the shows that we all used to love, or in some cases loved to hate.

The fashion of the 90s has definitely made a big comeback. I was walking through the store the other day and I saw overalls. Overalls. They used to be a big thing then but disappeared and people seemed to avoid them like the plague. Now, all of a sudden, they're back, and with a vengeance. All the crazy overall colors and patterns that used to be sprinkled throughout society are back. Pair them with the crop tops, crazy bright colors, torn denim, chokers, and so many more things from that decade that I see around the college and in stores feels like I fell through a time portal to my childhood.

It's not just the clothes that have made a reappearance, but also the shows that we used to either get up early for or rush home from school to get to see. A lot of these shows have gotten or are getting remakes of them. Some are getting movies. A few examples of these are Hey Arnold!, Rocco's Modern Life, and Samurai Jack (Let's just hope these are better than what they did to Teen Titans and Powerpuff Girls). There are also a few shows that never left, such as Spongebob. Others had branch offs made, like how Boy Meets World is now Girl Meets World.

Not only can you now watch television like you used to, but you can snack like you used to as well. Wonderballs are not the only food that has magically reappeared on the shelves. That same day I saw the overalls, I also saw Count Chocula and the gang's cereal. The inner child in me may have died a little of happiness at the sight of Boo Berry. All we need now are fruit rollups to pop back up. With everything considered, we can now dress, watch, and eat like it was our childhood days again, as we long for the simplicity of just being mad at Angelica instead of having to type term papers.

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.

1. It's easy to be fooled by shiny things.

Tamatoa created a liar filled with shiny things simply for the purpose of tricking fish to enter and become his food. He too experiences a lesson in how easy it is to be tricked by shiny things when Moana distracts him by covering herself in glowing algae so Maui can grab his hook.
