466. Back to school with old periodicals
Oh hey, yeah I've been gone for nearly the whole month of August.
I cut my left index finger wiiiide open at my job (I was repackaging Road to Avalonea dvds, the Xacto knife slipped) so I wasn't in the mood to type when I came home from work, you know?
The locker backpacks! I had the original, the Wiz, the $20 one in second grade. The backpack didn't last long, it started falling apart at the seams. It was various neon colors.
This was in a Teen magazine in 1992, I believe. a TEEN magazine. She looks like someone's mom who just dropped her kids off at the bus stop.
I'm so sad that these are microfiche copies so we can't see them in full color. I found some Mead Super Shades examples from eBay:
(eBay user themotherroad)
(eBay user rmcm59) -- turquoise! filler paper! I'm sure that wasn't allowed in most schools.
Those Grip Stix pencils! I had those in the first grade and thought that they would help me improve my handwriting. They did not.
Because I too, brought my sassaby cosmetics case to school on the first day.
Back when times were tough like in 2012 when I couldn't find work, I abused the Sun In.
Zillions was a magazine that my house received briefly when I was 11 years old. It was a kid's version of Consumer Reports. When I saw this cover feature about a gorilla testing binders, I really thought someone dressed in a gorilla suit threw around some binders in the Zillions office. I wish. (I think in the era of TikTok they would have today) No, they put the binders through something similar to a rock tumbler:
By the time I was in high school in the late 90s, we didn't have homeroom. Homeroom was just, the first class of the day.
I didn't go to a "real" college until my junior year, and I didn't gain weight from the dining hall, I gained weight because I constantly went to this nice grocery store we had about a mile away, Martin's. I came from a tiny town where you had to drive nearly an hour to get to a big grocery store, so Martin's was a big deal for me. I didn't know that colleges served sushi in 1988. Apparently sushi just became a weekday thing at my college in the last couple of years.
I just saw on TikTok last night someone running across these original Lisa Frank folders from the late 80s/early 90s at a thrift store. Lemmie try to find it. Here it is.
Oh these wireless neatbooks were the worst to keep as a notebook to take notes in, but great to just carry around loose leaf paper for assignments without the bulk of a binder.
You know, I know, we all know this backpack would only last about a month.
yes, Spuds McKenzie the dog from the Bud Light Beer commercials was a hot item for back to school.

where did you get your grid notebook from your math notes photos?! it's super cute!
Hey! I’m not sure which one exactly you’re referring bc I haven’t posted math notes recently... but I used a wireless grid neatbook from Hilroy (I don’t really recommend that one though because the pages always fall out so I end up putting it in a binder but i love the paper quality ugh)
