11. SHOULDER PADS : I don't know if this was out before the 90"s but most of my clothes had shoulder pads in them and i would forever love to take them off. It is one of the things i really don't miss. 12. TEVIN CAMPBELL: Whatever happened to that young man with the sweet voice any young female would die for with hits like "I'm ready" and "Can we talk." Nowadays the tunes some men like him sing..........don't wanna listen to the radio. 13. DOLLY THE SHEEP: I don't agree with cloning but i think it was the beginning of a scientific advance. 14. OJ SIMPSON: The OJ Simpson trial as one of the most viewed and highly controversial trials of the 90's. 15. F.R.I.E.N.D.S: A very interesting tv show that began in the 90's and ended a couple of years ago. Tv was fun back then. 16. EVI EDNA OGHOLI : So as a Nigerian child growing up back home, her tunes were whats up. Especially "Happy Birthday' and "Jealousy".

So far i listed 3 things about the 90's that i like and also miss very much so I will continue with my list. 4.LEGGINGS: Apart from wearing them in the 90's they came back again to haunt me after another whole decade, the ones i dont see much are the ones that go from one ankle to another under the feet. I think it is a fashion that will never die     5.THE COSBY SHOW:   One of the best family shows one could ever wach, a sitcom that one will never ever get tired of watching, i don't care how many reruns are shown, it just keeps getting better. The Huxtables are a perfect example of a couple trying to manage their household. I enjoyed watching the discipline and love they gave to their kids and which i think is lacking in some homes a couple of decades later.I loved Rudy best, she just had something about her. The couple were also crazy and witty as well as the other kids. 6.COMING TO AMERICA: I think the movie was made in the late 80's but it was a movie that one

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!! I miss those years, those early years before the invention of the internet, Blackberry, I phone, GPS, Wifi and Hispeed Internet. Not like these advances are not good but life was so much simpler back in the day. I feel like all this technology has cramped my lifestyle and shortened my bed. It is so much easier for people to reach you even when you are trying to avoid them.Every year a new car contains one better gadget its either GPS, or Ipod port or something. I love the fact that Google also makes idiots look like smart people because back in the day there was no Google to get some answers for your homework from because nowadays everyone seems to know everything even when they really don't. TV was so much fun to watch and since i was raised in Nigeria i got to watch a lot of British TV programmes like RentaGhost, Chuckle Hounds, Dr Who, its not like in this decade where all these fake people put themselves on a reality show and show off their fake li
