One thing that we cannot forget about the 90's are the wonderful TV shows. Growing up in the 90's wouldn't have been the same without the shows and I kind of feel bad for the kids today because the variety and creativity is not there today. Technology has taken over the world and though I think it's cool, it's ruining kids childhoods (as I write this from my iPad).
I remember I would make up games and spend all day and night outside. My mom would literally have to drag me inside because we were having too much fun!
One thing that annoys me is that kids shows today are being more inappropriate and are focused on relationships.
I miss tv shows like The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, Full House, Rugrats, The Big Comfy Couch, Boy Meets World, Sabrina The Teenage Witch, The Powder Puff Girls, The Power Rangers, Pokemon, Hey Arnold, Dexters Laboratory and The Magic School Bus. I know I forgot a lot of other great shows but just think, how many great shows are there on tv today?
I miss being able to pretend I was from Rocket Power when I rode my bike or skateboard or rewinding VHS tapes to start the movie from the beginning. I miss Nick @ Nite and all of the shows that would have me laughing for hours. I miss the childish hand games that we would play with our friends and the fact that we would actually ring our friends door bell to ask if they could come outside and play. But the things I miss the most are the imaginations we had and the fact that nothing else mattered because we were a couple of friends just having fun. School didn't suck because you actually liked your teacher and the people in your class.
I miss the book bags with wheels and the trapper keepers with all of my books and homework. I miss the light up sneakers and Velcro shoes that our parents bought us and we wore them with pride! I miss the days when the whole neighborhood would be outside and the parents would talk while the kids ran around. I miss playing outside until the street lights came on and not fearing anything because nothing bad could happen. I miss the fact that I actually knew my neighbors and no one judged each other. I miss when money didn't matter because we didn't need the new $200 phone or fast car or whatever was new and cool and only lasted 2 weeks.
I miss going on adventures with my friends and making up stories and having relay races with our bikes and scooters. I miss having neighborhood sports tournaments and the pride of beating other neighborhoods. I miss when everyone would run into one house because it started raining and we would watch a movie or make up games. I miss when people actually talked to each other face to face and talked about TV shows and their secret clubs.
Most importantly, I miss the fact that we always trusted each other and never gossiped or talked bad about other people. I miss when kids actually had manners and respected and feared their elders. It never crossed our minds that the wonderful era would ever come to an end. We always wanted to grow up because we pictured our lives to always be like that except we could drive and buy things. It saddens me that my kids will grow up in a world where technology runs everything and I'm scared to see what else it does to us. When I look back, I regret taking everything for granted but nothing makes me happier than the fact that I am a 90's kid and I had the chance to experience all of those wonderful things.
