Recently I fell down the rabbit hole of 1990s and early 2000s music. It started with a 90s music challenge that I watched on YouTube and culminated in downloading the SongPop app and attempting to win some challenges of my own. I realized, though, that the music I listened to growing up in the late 1990s and early 2000s is not exactly the music that everyone else listened to. Sure, I know some Destiny’s Child songs and can definitely recognize the Backstreet Boys or Britney Spears when I hear a few notes, but that was not what I grew up with. Being from a Christian household meant that there were some different, but equally (if not more) awesome artists making the rounds on cassette tapes in the car, or in my parent’s big black CD player. Since throwback anything is having a moment right now, I thought I would compile a list – a list that turned out to be much longer and full of much more awesomeness (“Awesome God,” anyone?) than I anticipated. Behold, a throwback Christian music list that any 90s kid can appreciate, complete with YouTube tracks of each song for your listening pleasure.

1. “Jesus Freak” by DC Talk

2. “Shine” by Newsboys

3. “Shackles” by Mary Mary

4. “Camouflage” by Plus One

5. “With all of My Heart” by ZOE Girl

6. “Jump, Jump, Jump” by True Vibe


7. “Different Now” by Out of Eden”

8. “Holy” by Nicole Nordeman

9. “Dive” by Steven Curtis Chapman

10. “(There’s Gotta Be) More to Life” by Stacie Orri

co

11. “Live For You” by Rachel Lampa

12. “Every Time I Fall” by Jack Velasquez

13. “Testify to Love” by Avalon (or, if you are from my family, “Knocking on Heaven’s Door”)

14. “You Found Me” by FFH

15. “I Can Only Imagine” by MercyMe

16. “Flood”by Jars of Clay

17. “Great Light of the World” by Bebo Norman

18. “Show Me Your Glory” by Third Day

19. “I Still Believe” by Jeremy Camp

20. “Big House” by Audio Adrenaline

While this list is far from comprehensive, listening to some of these songs will bring on a serious sense of nostalgia in any 90s kids who grew up in Church. Dance party, anyone?

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.

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.
