In elementary school, making up dances to Hilary Duff songs was considered "cool".
Yes, I'll admit the songs that my friends and I made up dances to. It is the following list:
- Come Clean - Hilary Duff
- Space Jam - Space Jam Soundtrack
- Why Not - Hilary Duff
- One, Two Step - Ciara
- Independent Women - Destiny's Child
Ugh. I even performed one of these dances publicly for the 4th grade talent show. Needless to say, I have burned all of the evidence.
Wearing a hooded sweatshirt tied around your waist was NOT cool. Ever.
But Rachel, I brought it to school to wear in case I got cold. No, just no. I personally really only wore it tied around my waist because sometimes my pants slid down and anyone behind me could see my grandma undies. It happened only once, and I had been terrified since. I didn't know what the meaning of a "belt" was. I was a LOSER. But remember, only I can make fun of myself.
When a boy says hello to you, it does not mean that they have a crush on you.
Yes, I did not learn how to talk to the opposite sex until my sophomore year in high school. Before that, I couldn't even hold a conversation with them without my ears turning the color of a tomato. I was that girl. I'm so glad that I grew out of that phase.
I skipped recess every day to go help out the office. Um what? You NEVER skip recess. Or a nap.
I'm not really sure if I have to explain this one. These days I really value my nap and play time these days and I'm kicking my old self in the butt for not taking advantage of that time.
And finally, the most embarrassing, pretending to be a mermaid in a pool is not/has not/will ever be cool/appropriate.
Yes, Hannah, my neighbor and I used to pretend we were sparkly colorful mermaids in our 3 ft. pool. And we also had names such as: Sparkle, Crystal, Melanie, and Snowflake. I don't even know how Snowflake pertains to mermaid folk. They live in the water. Snowflakes are not possible.
