Seeing Lion King in theaters and then getting the soundtrack on cassette tape on the way home.
Hologram/holograph colors on a lot of things (toys, bookmarks, just random stuff). Goosebumps books "Adult"-style programming for kids on Nickelodeon (AYATD, Hidden Temple, All That and other shows that typically never had a kid version before) Also I remember some crazy awesome toy shop in a mall in Southern California that looked like the set of a sci-fi show or something, but that's probably just a false memory. It had a platform you could stand on and spin yourself on. There was also a VR arcade (probably a different mall) where you would put on a VR headset and walk on a treadmill to navigate, that was ahead of its time. I don't remember the game being any good though. Things had vibrant color still. Watching music videos on MTv (I got hooked on that Madonna song, Speed of Light or something like that).

- Walking/riding/skating to the malls and arcades.
- Street Hockey between 7-9:00 pm - Hackey-sacking out side of school while some of us were waiting for our rides (I biked to and from so when they all left, so did I. At times I would leave my bike still tied up and just hitch a ride with my friends.) - Dodgeball, Crab Dodgeball (cutthroat battles that test your friendship) - Six-Flags/Hurricane Harbor, with the ridiculous Super Soaker water guns. - Renting games at BlockBuster on a Friday afternoon with the family after eating at a busy restaurant. - Fighting a lot against the other elementary school kids at the city parks after hours (from 3rd to the 5th grade before moving to another city campus). - Ding Dong ditching, and prank calling random numbers. - Diss battles/YoMomma jokes in class while the teacher was out/in the bus on field trips/during lunch where nobody took it seriously. - Waking up very early in the summers to Deliver the paper, or help my dad or uncles out with fixing their cars or tagging along to their jobsites and hand them tools and mats. - Detention, lots of detention for talking back, insubordination, and laughing. - My first kiss. - Christmas presents. Tons and tons of them. - Going hunting with my dad. - My stabbing in my right upper front thigh during the the fourth grade. - Sneaking into my uncle's shop to joyride his atvs and dirt bikes.

The main one really was how small and immediate the world felt.
You go outside. You either have the folks around to hang out with or not. You interacted with the same folks or not every day. You spent a lot of time just outside, alone. Or inside, alone as a result. I can distinctly remember dog days in the summer when families liked to vacation. All your friends would be a away at or around the same times. You would just go outside in the sweltering heat and ride your bike down the seemingly kid-deserted streets. It was surreal and felt like time was cold, the only thing frozen despite the relentless sun. You eventually make it back home. It's late but the sun goes down after dark. You can't retreat to the internet. You might have cable in your room or you share a TV with the family. So it is back to whatever crud licensed SNES game, maybe They're Back!, your silly grandma dropped 80 bucks on for your birthday because you like dinosaurs. Shower and bed not long after just to do it all again tomorrow. --- You know how fads are. Today it's brains, tomorrow, pierced tongues. Then the next day, pierced brains. -Jane Lane ...
