There are lots of things I love, lots of stuff I hate, lots of knowledge I've acquired along the way, and lots of things I still don't understand. I suppose in a way it's about me, but I didn't want this to be a repeat of my lengthy life updates. So, it's just a collection of lists. At least one per week. An insight inside my brain, if you will. Twelve items pertaining to whatever topic I feel like, ranked in appropriate order, for your reading pleasure and mostly so I can put all my thoughts onto "paper." Maybe you'll agree. Maybe you'll think I have the dumbest opinions on the face of this planet. Maybe you'll laugh. Maybe you'll wish you could get those few minutes of your life back that you just spent reading what I had to say. But maybe, just maybe, you'll learn a little something new.

90's Hitz

It's a flashback to the past today!  Remembering the most baller songs from our elementary school days!  I'm making this list mostly based on my own tastes and what I remember rocking out to with all my friends in the back seat of the car as a 10 year old thinking we were the shit with butch hair cuts, overalls, tech vests, and our awkward selves. With that being said, these are mostly late 90's because we were toddlers in the early 90's and therefore Raffi was the man back then, but some classics snuck in there.  It was super hard trying to decide which songs to put on here, because there are a LOT of classics, including All Star, ALL Jock Jams songs, Boyz II Men, Vanilla Ice, MC Hammer, and TLC.  But, alas--- this is my final decision. (In no particular order)

1. The Macarena - Los Del Rio - 1995
I think the title says it all.

2. Black or White - Michael Jackson - 1991
I didn't actually discover this gem til WAY later in life, but it's a killer song and legit lyrics.

My first CD that I ever owned was the Wannabe single!

5. Livin' La Vida Loca - Ricky Martin - 1999
Ever since this song came out--- my dad asks about once every 1.5 -2 years (SUPER RANDOMLY) "Whats that 'Bon-Bon guy' up to now? (If you'll remember Ricky had another single called 'shake your bon-bon')."  "Uh-- you mean Ricky Martin dad?"  "YEAH! HIM!"  And its always out of NOWHERE.  We'll be eating dinner or on vacation or doing something that has literally nothing to do with music, latin things, or bon-bons--- but without fail, he ALWAYS asks.

6. Baby Got Back - Sir-Mix-A-Lot - 1992
After seeing Charlie's Angles it became my mission to learn EVERY WORD.  Mission completed.

9. Tubthumping (I Get Knocked Down) - Chumbawumba -1997
