When light up sneakers were cool.
When you rented VHS tapes, not DVDs.
When gas was $0.95 a gallon & Caller ID was a new thing.

Way back.
i think one of my favorite memories is a party i went to just before this past fall semester started (30th & warner) and the fresh prince of bel-air theme song came on and the whooole party sang along to the whooole thing. it was absolutely amazing and made me proud to have grown up in the 90s... =)
on another note, later posts will reveal the ridiculousness of the past two weekends... nakedness, blood, hot brazilian men, swing dancing, tequila... it's been crazy and i can only hope that it continues this way. =)
