Time Machine

If someone invented a time machine, where would you go? If I was given the opportunity, I would go back to the 90s. I, along with a large majority of my peers, agree that the 90s was the best decade. Though there were problems, they didn't seem as big as the problems we face today. People seemed to appreciate living more instead of being caught up on problems. The mood of the decade can be seen in shows from that time period, such as Living Single, A Different World, and the Cosby Show. Television shows were the greatest in the 90s. Shows were more culturally diverse. Television programs today mainly have a majority black cast or a majority white cast with a few other minorities sprinkled in. The 90s were not afraid to push boundaries or bring up topics that most people might not want to talk about. People were not afraid to deal with race or other differences amongst the people that surrounded them, like interracial relationships were seen in more shows in the 90s than they are today. Another aspect that made the 90s great was the music. No matter what genre a song was under, everyone knew the words. Songs still had a point in the 90s. There were no Soulja Boys making a genre sound stupid. Fashion was also a plus. Like the decades before it, the 90s were all about expression through individualism. You didn't have to match in order to have a nice outfit. Another thing I liked about the 90s is that people seemed more determined to better themselves. They weren't caught up on being cool. They wanted to make something out of themselves later on in life. I have a similar mentality. Even though I was young in this decade, the 90s still speak to me. If I could get stuck anywhere in time, I would definitely pick to be my age now in the 90s. If I couldn't leave, I might not even have a problem with that.
