This is the one day in the year when I want to throw a brand-new pencil case in an over-sized backpack and walk to school in envy-inciting corduroy overalls. (Seriously, I had the best overalls. No, not in kindergarten. In the ninth grade.)
In honor of those who headed back to school today….
The Magic School Bus
I walked to school. Kindergarten through Grade 12. So bus rides meant only one thing to me: field trip!
Being Erica
I should watch this show more often.
This scene involves Erica time-traveling back to her college poetry class. Brilliance ensues.
Oh, Erica. The next video is hardly a surprise….
…Baby One More Time
I can still remember watching this video for the first time. I was like, “Who is this and can I watch it again?” So infectious. Suddenly, we wanted to be Britney. All of us. Admit it.
Clueless
I saw this movie in theatres. TWICE. I was only 11 at the time and secretly hoped that by the time I got to high school, I’d have yellow plaid skirts and knee socks in my wardrobe. (Um, see above “corduroy overalls” comment. Sartorial fail.)
“You’re a virgin who can’t drive” is still one of the best insults in cinematic history.

I saw someone in overalls today. I did not think of you. mostly because you hadn’t posted about overalls before. Also, I have season one and two of being erica on my ipod. If you know of a way to borrow it, let me know.
