Things All 90s Kids Still Do

If you were born in the 90s there's some trends and popular items you just can't turn your head on. The 90s were great for multiple reasons and causes. Here's a list of things you thought you'd outgrow, but never really did:

Getting excited when you see Mad Libs.

I will probably never outgrow Mad Libs. My kids will do Mad Libs. My kid's kids will do Mad Libs. My kid's kid's kids will do Mad Libs... you get the picture. Mad Libs are the foundation of my childhood.

Instantly wake up when the theme song of "Fresh Prince of Bel Air" randomly comes on at 2 a.m.

This will forever be my favorite show, favorite theme song, and favorite actors. Hands down. Let's be real, people will never understand the true meaning unless they stayed up late to watch this show. Must be a 90s thing.

Reminisce over your old "Now" CDs.

There's too many times I have gone through my old boxes of junk to find a good handful of "Now" CDs that I can't help but jam out too.

Make fortune tellers when you’re just really that bored.

Anyone else remember these? Back in the note-passing days... Nothing beats a good ole fashion fortune teller.

Play MASH just to see how hilariously pathetic your life will turn out.

This was definitely one way to low-key see how your life would (or would not) end up with your crush. Ya know... just "randomly throwing a name in there"...

Dig your fingers into Flarp when you just so happen to walk down that isle at Walmart because who doesn’t love fart noises?

I don't think anyone will ever outgrow FLARP... No one can pass up the temptation to dig their fingers deep into the squishy goodness.

Occasionally look up how much your Beanie Babies are worth now.

Don't you just wish you kept every single one of them? They're worth so much money now! I always tried to collect every sing one.

Whip out the Bop It to school younger generations just to prove you still got it like it was 1996.

This was by far my favorite thing to do as a kid...and still do when ever there is one in my sight. These were too addicting.

Fanny packs – don’t deny it, just accept it.

We all die at the chance to throw on our perfect fanny for the perfect occasion.

Thinking chokers are still a thing again

Not that I didn't love chokers back then... but now they're resurfacing and the inner me is rejoicing.

Leaving notes because text messages just don’t cut it sometimes

I still leave little notes for my boyfriend or roommates because the element of surprise is always fun. Plus it's always a tactful way to leave a message.

In honor of Mother’s Day, I have been thinking of all the things my mom does for my family and me. Although I couldn’t write nearly all of them, here are a few things that moms do for us.

They find that shirt that’s right in front of you, but just you can’t seem to find.

Take the time to thank that one friend in your life you will never let go of.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
