This was originally an e-mail that my friend sent me, but i think it needs to be shared with all the children of the 90's!! lol good times eh?
CAN YOU REMEMBER:
Before the My Space frenzy.
Before the text messaging.
Before mp3's & i-Pods.
Before Paris Hilton
Before PlayStation2 or X-BOX.
Before the 5 hours of homework you put off every night.
When light up sneakers were cool.
When you rented VHS tapes, not DVDs.
When we recorded stuff on VCRs, and taped songs off the radio on a Sunday
When you would do rolley-polleys all over the field at playtime
When wearing summer dresses and shorts to school in the summer made you wake up with a smile
When the playtimes during summer seemed to last for ages
Way back.
When all the spice girl photos were banned from school
When POGS were the s**t
Hide-n- Seek after school till it got dark
Hopscotch.
Tree Houses.
Hula Hoops.
Reading R.L. Stine's Goose Bumps.
The annoying Nano Pets & Furbies.
Running through the sprinklers.
Crying when Mufasa died in the Lion King.
Seeing toy story for the first time
Happy Meals where you chose a Barbie or a Hot Wheels car.
Getting the privilege to sit in the front seat of the car.
Drinking umbun-go
Wait.
Watching Saturday Morning Cartoons in your PJ's still wrapped up in your duvet:
Hey Arnold
Doug
Rugrats
CatDog
The original Power Rangers
Or what about:
The Secret Life of Alex Mac.
Ren & Stimpy.
Rocko's Modern Life.
AAAHH!! REAL MONSTERS.
Clarissa Explains it All.
Are You Afraid of the Dark?
Kenan & Kel.
Doug.
Magic school bus.
Pinky and the brain.
Earth worm Jim
Tcc
Arthur
The busy world of Richard scary.
The adventures of Winnie the Pooh.
Wearing your new shoes on the first day of school.
Class trips.
When Christmas was the most exciting time of year.
When 5 pounds seemed like a million
When you begged to go to McDonalds for dinner everyday.
When Toys R Us ruled
Go back to the time when:
Decisions were made by going 'eeny-meeny-miney-moe'
Mistakes were corrected by simply exclaiming 'do over!' and 'make up make up never ever break up'
'Race issue' meant arguing about who ran the fastest.
Money issues were handled by whoever was banker in 'Monopoly'.
It wasn't odd to have two or three 'best' friends.
Being old referred to anyone over 20.
Scrapes & bruises were kissed & made better.
It was a big deal to finally be tall enough to ride the 'big people' rides at the fair.
When playing Nintendo or Mega Drive was the hardest thing ever.
When Ninja Turtles ruled the world
When sweets from ALLDAYS was the highlight of your day.
Home time was the best part of the day
When the only thing you cried over was your mum being late to pick you up.
When stress was addition and subtraction.
When friendships were as complicated as whose house to sleep over
When shaving cream was just meant for play.
When a first kiss only lead to lurgies.
When Valentines Day meant cards for all.
When birthdays were a class event.
When a friend moving away was the saddest day of your life.
Can you remember, chasing the "dicky-dees" around the street trying to get ice cream?
Crying because u scraped your knees
Laughing because you burped.
Trying to burp and fart at the same time
The hardest part of school was trying to keep your eyes open
"Phoque" was funny to say because it sounded like you know.
Hell was a bad word.
You idolized the grade 6'ers
Your favourite subject was math
You spent half your lunch bugging your friends to trade with you
...Who would have thought you’d miss the 90's so much?
