The nostalgia tag

Thanks to Audrey Nicsik, this week I will be doing the nostalgia tag. I’ve included some of my old favourites from when I was younger that I was completely obsessed with back in the day, that bring back that exciting feeling of nostalgia.

 

1)  The GameBoy Advanced SP

Remember this little guy? After the original GameBoy Advance, but before the D.S came along with all its extra features, I would spend hours on end in front of this GameBoy, trying to beat the latest Pokemon or Mario game. 

2) Blockbuster Video

Arguing with your parents about what movies to rent that weekend for what seemed like hours, begging them to rent you a console and some video games, drooling over the heaps of candy surrounding the checkout and returning the DVDs a day late, just to come back next weekend and do it all over again. Ah, what a magical place Blockbuster Video was.

 

3) The Water Ring Game

We all had one, even if we didn’t like jotting up, then gently falling to the bottom. Personally, I could never get all the hoops into the basket, but I sure tried. Pushing the buttons for countless minutes, mesmerized by all the little hoops… so fun.

 

 

 

4) The Emperor’s New School

“Kronk! Pull the lever!”

This beloved Disney cartoon was my absolute favourite show on the Family Channel right up until it went off air. With its hilarious characters and witty jokes, no wonder there are so many of this show all over the internet. I will forever remember it as the  cartoon with the funniest dialogue.

Bryna here. I believe tea, a cat and a good book can solve almost every problem. I also might have an unhealthy addiction to Doctor Who.
