Everything is all myspace, facebook, msn, yahoo, I could be down stairs and my sister'll upstairs and she'll call my cell, I upload pictures and photoshop them silly, I don't remember what on earth I did without a cell phone, my sister drives =\, I work and am in college. gross; so let me take you back to a time, a time when growing up was optional.
Do you remember POGs, Nano's or Tamagotchis, "whoa" said Joey (blossom), "how rude!" said Stephanie (full house), One Sterday Morning, and TGIF, Boy Meets World, Step by Step, Steve Eurkle, Saved by the Bell (ohh Zack Morris), Sabrina the teenage Witch, Goosebumps, Are You Afraid of the Dark?, Inspector Gadget, Melrose Place, 90210, morning glory agendas you got your friends to write in, Slam Books, Power Rangers, super nintendo, Home Alone 1&2, Care Bears, "talk to the hand", "eenie-meenie-mini-mo", "pl-ease", "so then why don't you marry him/her/it?", ICQ, calling radio stations to request songs, LA gear shoes!, calling KISS to talk to madd dog and billie to request a backstreet or o-town song, red ass, red light green light, $5 = a million, double dutch, hop scotch, freezies that you obviously split with your friends, hot wheels, polly pocket, Little mermaid, Happy Meals were like rewards, Hey! Arnold, Ghost writer, Pinky and the Brain, Lamb chops, Mr. Rodgers, Mr. Dressup, new shoes on the first day of school, class feild trips were the biggest deal ever!, Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, Adobe what? Microsoft Paint, plastic lunch boxes or church purses, you had to blow on the nintendo game cartridge to make it work again!, casset tapes, scanners to put pictures on the computer was the best invention, Macarena and YMCA, when Pee-wee herman lost his bike, singing to the disney songs at the top of your lungs, My girl, Today's Special the manikin who came to life, Wish Bone, Much Mega hits v.1, YTV countdown, Tarzan Dan!, Ninja Turtles, Darkwing Duck, Ghost busters, Eureekas Castle, your crush was the biggest deal, your best friends never betrayed you...etc.
Now I see twelve year old girls, dressing in strings and small peices of fabric, little boys who sag there pants once mom has dropped them off at the mall. I needed an adult to go to the mall at that age! They have cell phones and they talk back and cuss at there elders. They don't understand that giving your seat up on the bus to the elderly is ethically correct. oh mee oh myy! If I could go back.
