39. You had subscriptions to Dynamite and Tiger Beat (and have every poster room every magazine on your wall). You spent all your allowance on smurfs and stickers for your sticker album!

Funny thing is, I ran across my sticker collection about a year ago and gave it to my kids. A few Michael Jackson, rainbows and unicorns and an overload of the scratch and sniff ones! My kids went NUTS!!!

I actually once wrote a letter to the "Wish List" in TigerBeat saying that I was Rick Springfields biggest fan, and all I wanted in life was a chance to meet him. For the next six months my heart would skip beats every time I opened the new edition just knowing that this was the month they would print my letter, and Rick Springfield was on his way to meet me :>

I also would spend every Sunday night in my bedroom, warning everyone not to disturb me because I was taping Casey Kasems Top 40, just like this list says, with my hand held tape recorder held next to the radio speaker.

I was a geek. (I also "tried" to have the wings in my hair, and the comb in the back pocket).
