Remember when....





We wore these up our arm.... In 8th grade, I traded this one for the clear one with a boy I was "going with."  I kept that Swatch for a long time.  Now, I'm friends with that boy on Facebook even though he moved to a different state after 8th grade.

  
Walking into a Banana Republic was like walking into a Safari...


This was the number one school supply item....
 We all wanted a pair of these....

 We kept this in our locker...

 If any of these images brought on a smile and little warmth to your heart, then I know you are as old as me.  Nothing like starting the day with a little 9th grade nostalgia.
