Everyone you promised you would marry but then forgot about.

The Top 5 Forgotten Heartthrobs

Back in the day, I mean way back, when Disney was still good in our eyes and the worst thing a boy could do to us was mess up the high note, times were simpler. And, boy oh boy, were they better. 'Boy' being the operative word there. At some point or another, I definitely had my heart set on marrying my celebrity crush, and I know you did too. But how many of these marriages did we forget about? How many of my own weddings, which I had so thoughtfully planned, did I miss?

Here’s a recap of these heartthrobs, so you can go ahead and hit ‘em with an apology on Twitter.

1. Jonathan Taylor Thomas

First, there was the seemingly unforgettable Jonathan Taylor Thomas. JTT had it all: good looks and wit to match. Plus, he voiced young Simba. Precious. I thought I could stare into those baby blues forever, but after an eight year run on Home Improvement, JTT moved off our radar.

2. Aaron Carter

The void in our hearts could be filled by none other than the songbird of the 90s generation. Aaron Carter stole our hearts even before he appeared on "Lizzie McGuire," but that sent things over the edge. I would have changed my first name to Candy to get him to make my last name Carter.

3. Corbin Bleu

Aaron definitely sparked our interest in boys that could sing, play basketball, and could possibly introduce us to Zac Efron. Of course, we all had big plans for our lives with Troy Bolton, but we would be lying if we said we didn’t see Chad, Troy’s sidekick, as the whole package too. The hair, the voice, and those dance basketball skills were undeniably everything that I thought I would value in a husband.


4. Drake Bell

Seriously, we loved boys that could sing, and Drake Bell’s character on "Drake & Josh" was in a band. A BAND. We didn’t know we were ready for this kind of angst, but it was everything we were looking for in our guy. As if his cool guy attitude wasn’t enough, he had a way with the ladies. No one could rock skinny jeans quite like Drake, but he also had a heart of gold and could make us laugh until we cried. Our future was bright.


5. The Jonas Brothers

As The Jonas Brothers became a sensation, the popular argument among all girls was who is the best Jonas, and why? But, seriously, how can you choose just one? With Nick’s recent success, it’s pretty easy to forget that, hey, Joe and Kevin were there too. Not only were they there, but they had great hair. I’ll never forget the original JBs. Like, I know you’re brothers, but can’t we work something out?

I consider myself a monogamist, but looking back, it’s clear I stepped out on a few of my most beloved crushes as new ones stepped into the picture. I’m sorry, guys. We’re all sorry we forgot about you. We loved you all at different times, but none more than the other.

Except for you, JTT. Call me.

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.
