childhood toys

Lately I've been obsessed with my old childhood toys. Erm...who am I kidding? I've /always/ been obsessed with my childhood toys. Some of them I still have, and some of them I don't. I lost all my My Little Pony's and Strawberry Shortcake dolls to Ebay when it first came out. What was I thinking???

(WHY do we all have to have a mullet phase? Why, oh why.)

(..and what the heck is THIS? Old lady phase?)

Whatever. Regardless of what /I/ looked like back then...those toys will always be precious sight to me! I still have ALL my Jem dolls. Ah! What a treasure. I've also managed to collect quite a few of my other random 80's toys back. Perhaps as post of these tomorrow?

When I was a kid...

When I was a kid, at one point I wanted to be a fashion designer. It still sounds like a lot of fun to me! Who knows...maybe somday.  Check out some of my drawings from the 5th grade. HA! So amazingly 80's.

I'm so glad my mom saved these! I remember drawing them like it was yesterday.
