As back to school approaches it is impossible to not feel nostalgic. Our kids will never know the excitement of picking out the perfect Trapper Keeper and the time we spent perfectly covering our textbooks with paper grocery bags. They will never know the hope we felt when buying a pencil from the school pencil machine while crossing our fingers that it would either have a grape smell or be wrapped in glitter. 1980s school supplies were totally rad man.
Debbie Gibson on your walkmen. Bangs teased up and you and your BFF wearing your matching Hyper color shirts. A great time to be alive! I promise you are going to laugh your way all through this
