A blast from the past

We've continued learning about the 90s today in history and seeing as I myself am a 90s child I had a great feeling of nostalgia. Well, I guess everyone in the class is a 90s child so...

I never realised just how many cartoons I had watched when i was younger aren't on any more. the whole time my class was laughing and sighing at how much fun we had when television wasn't so strict and the video game systems were old and revolutionary. The Nintendo64 was definitely my favorite, along with the PlayStation 1. Oh, Ocarina of Time, how i loved you even though my brother would never let me play you. I spent almost all of the 90s in my yellow house in Colorado, going to about five different schools in a matter of seven years. It was when i got my first trampoline and played with seventeen year old neighbors who lived in a big stone house next door on base. I remember when we locked the babysitter outside the house and wouldn't open the door until he almost broke it down. I remember Day care the most though. I think it was four day cares i went to before I reached third grade. I remember one of them had a skeleton hanging from the entrance, and all i could think was: Why doesn't he have a nose?

We talked about all the stuff we did when we were little in lunch, like did you watch this? and did you play that? It was great fun. i think I'm the only one who watched Gumbe though... :( Tomorrow we're starting the 2000s...oh great...Bush.
