Hi, guys!
I went on a random toy hunt at my local Wal-Mart and Target. I'll admit that I haven't really paid much attention to toys in a long time. I mean besides Nintendo stuff. I know that people say to keep all of your clothing and toys because they'll be popular once again. I knew that Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and My Littlest Pet Shop were making a triumphant come back. My sister and I had these toys when we were younger, but unfortunately don't have any of them any more.
Here is what else I found on my toy hunt!

Power Morphicon 2014
Hi guys, long time no write.
My apologizes I've just been extremely busy, but enough of that. If you've read some previous entries of this blog you know that I was an avid watcher of the Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers. Every two years in Pasadena, California there is an all Power Rangers convention. I, personally, have never been to one, I'll be stalking YouTube shortly after the convention has closed.
I must say that guest list looks amazing! Most of Saban's early 90's creations are going to be there, Big Bad BeetleBorgs, VR Troopers, Masked Rider, and of course Power Rangers throughout the years. I'm more excited to hear from characters that aren't as active in social media or are active in cons. For instance; Carol Hoyt.
Austin St. John is back from the middle east and is going to be there this year, he was also in the very first Power Morphicon in 2007. He has been doing a lot of cons since he's been back and now has a Facebook, Twitter account, and is on Instagram. I'm thankful that he seems very humble and respectful to the fans.
Then I made a YouTube video on my channel that Yuuta Mochizuki was announced to appear a few weeks back. He was Geki the Tyranno Ranger, in Kyouryuu Sentai Zyuranger.
On my old YouTube account I had a what you might call a 'tribute' to him, I also put this video on my SeraMyu fan page on MySpace. (My old YouTube has been taken down, so I'm going to try to embed the MySpace version.)as been taken down, so I'm going to try to embed the MySpace version.) For some reason, I can't embed to videos in one post, so I'm going to put a link to my Yuuta Mochizuki tribute video.

Hiatus
Hi guys!
I know that I've been having a little hiatus with this blog. I'm hoping that it isn't the case for much longer. I got a couple ideas for future entries, that I'm excited for. I'm hoping when I go to my sister's house for Thanksgiving I'm able to find some of the things that I need. I've also been busy with college, school, and with another blog that I'm doing here on blogger. I'll link it here http://kaelancer.blogspot.com , feel free to visit it.
I'm also very happy that "Kids of the 90's" still gets plenty of people reading it weekly.
Here's a random photo of something that I got dirt cheap a week ago. It also came with a screen light/ magnifier, two games, and a GameCube link cable.

Animal Crossing!
I know that Animal Crossing, the original release for North America, didn't come out in the 90's, but it was pretty close. It came out in 2001, I was still in high school. This is probably going to be the only exception to having something in the 00's.
I got Animal Crossing:New Leaf when it came out this summer. It's great, fun, but also very VERY addicting. Then being a nostalgia nut that I am, I hooked up my gamecube and attempted to play.
Well, I haven't played my file in like 9 months. My town was covered in weeds, I couldn't remember what was donated to the museum, and I just wanted to start over. It was a hard decision because I had amazing neighbors; Mitzi, Bob, Lucky, and Cob were my favorites. After a few seconds of thoughts I deleted the file from my memory card and started over.
I must say the New Leaf has spoiled me. Everything takes much longer to do in the original version, such as selling things to Tom Nook, switching between tools, and getting fossils inspected. It's still very much enjoyable to play, and very addicting. I don't have any regrets for starting my town over.
For those who don't know what Animal Crossing is. I'm going to give a short description of what it's about.
You start the game in a traveling in a Train, and cat named Rover asks to sit down with you. You don't really have the option to tell him 'no.' He then proceeds to ask you questions. One is what's your name, I always name my avatar FUNKIE. Another is the name of the town that you're traveling to, my town name always changes. Another question he asks regards if you have a place to stay and money. It doesn't matter what you say, Rover will excuse himself to make a phone call. After he comes back he tells you that he's talked to a friend that's willing to help your character out, Tom Nook. When you arrive to your town, you finally get to see what your character looks like, it depends on how you answered your questions as to the hair and eye color/ shape will look like. Now is where my memory may get a little fuzzy. I believe Tom Nook is waiting for you when you get to the train station, he proceeds to tell you that he has some dirt cheap houses that you can live in. There are four houses to choose from, they are all the same except for roof color. I should also mention that they aren't really "houses" they are more like a tiny shack.
After you pick one Tom Nook tells you how to save, this is important or you'll get harassed by Mr. Resetti. Mr. Resetti can and WILL yell at you for minutes upon minutes if you don't save, it's a big PITA! When Tom Nook asks for money for the house you only have 1,000 bells, bells is the money that is used in the Animal Crossing universe, then he says that it isn't enough and offers you a part time job in his little shop. You basically do all the grunt work for him; making deliveries, doing advertising, work on the landscaping. He also has you meet all the neighbors, I think you start out with 4, and Tortimer who's the mayor. After you do all the jobs Nook using the money he was going to pay you to go towards your "loan." It still won't be paid off, but he tells you that you can go fishing, catch bugs, and dig up fossils. You just bring him what you caught and he'll pay you for them. Fossil's have to be sent away to the Farway museum to be inspected. (You can also take fishes, bugs, and fossils to the local museum to be donated.) You can take the bells that you earn to buy furniture, clothes, other tools, and pay off loans, to make your house larger.
That's the gist of Animal Crossing. I've owned and played every version except for the Wii one. (Only because I have never owned a Wii)

Cool Runnings
Hey guys,
I actually watched "Cool Runnings" last night. It was one of my favorites when I was a child. This movie is hilarious, serious, inspirational, and is all around fun. I actually forgot all about this movie, until I visited Amazon.com and it was a suggested product for me. I, of course, ordered it. I think that the one thing that stood out for me was that it didn't have the traditional Disney sport movie ending. Cool Runnings did NOT medal at the olympics and their final run was disastrous. I don't want to ruin the ending for anybody who hasn't seen it yet, but I was terrified watching the ending now as an adult. It was sad as a child, but not nearly as sad as it was last night. (Darn, adult hormones.) I took a picture of the DVD on my Instagram account.

I highly recommend this movie.

Mighty Ducks part 0
That's right part zero! Nobody has the original Mighty Ducks movie to rent or borrow. Even freaking iTunes only has the second and third Mighty Ducks movie to rent. I'm freaking disappointed! (sad face) So I'm sadly going to have to put the rest of my reviews on hold..... for now.
