While I loved most of the fashion, music, and television show from the 90's, I might be a little biased. I'm having fun going to stores and checking out what the kids think is trendy, but I'm having flashbacks to middle school and I'm starting to feel old! I was recently reminded that in three years I'll celebrate my 20th high school reunion, and this year my sister will celebrate hers. I don't know how that could have happened or where the time has gone?
I'll be 35 in a few months, and I really don't feel like my age. It doesn't help that trends from my youth are back in style, and I'm having flashbacks of days gone by. I've been wondering if I should go full-on 90's style, or leave it to the youths, lol. I'm a bit saddened that I don't have kids that I can embarrass at the school pick-up line by blasting Aqua or Jock Jams! But what hurts the most, songs that I grew up listening to are now being played on the oldies station! How is that even possible! The fact that Nick-at-Nite is now Friends and not I Love Lucy hurts my feelings. Or when I told someone that I work with who is barely 20, that I lived for ER and Rescue 911 when I was younger, she had no idea what I was talking about!
You see, I love being in my 30's, and I'm happy to move forward not backward, I'm still having a hard accepting that I'll be 40 in five years. I'm not sure how life seems to be passing me by, and I'm not sure why it's hitting me so hard right now? I'm learning to accept where I am in life, and I honestly feel like my best years are to come! Even though I'm having a hard time dealing with all of the acid wash, daisy shirts, Space-Jam and such, I'm really ready for the next adventure that life has to bring. So youths of today, please march on with new trends that I can be excited about and stop making me feel so old!
