5 Things I've managed to like or "be into" before they got popular.
1. Skype
--- I know for a fact that I've had a Skype account since 2004. I also remember freaking out in 2004 because some random French guy kept calling me. I figured no one would use the thing.... so I took it off my computer until I left for Mexico in 2009.
2. Converse Chuck Taylors
--- I used these cool shoes when I played basketball in 7th grade. (so old school, right???) You know how they're like 2 sizes bigger than normal? Well, that's how they fit me back then. :S Gah, I'm sure I was an ugly middle schooler. They got real cool in like 2003? I was in 7th grade back in 1999. I think we sold my Chuck's before they got popular.
3. Tom's Shoes
--- I believe in 2008, I bought like 5 pairs of toms because I thought they were so cool. And no one else had them. At least where I was from, nobody knew what they were. So, there I was with 5 pairs of toms, and, because they were just regular shoes (meaning not popular), I gave away like half of them to my younger cousin. This was my first pair. I ended up buying more pairs once they got popular.
4. Guitar Playing
--- Now, back in the day guitar playing was a really great feature... if you were a dude. But these days, there seem to be quite a few lovely ladies who can sing and play the guitar. Good thing I managed to teach myself how to play the guitar a long time ago so I wouldn't have to waste my time now. I've been guitar playing, and some song-writing, since 2000.
5. Facebook
--- Graduated in 2004, Fall of my freshman year in college, I remember my BFF calling me about this cool website called "thefacebook" I remember wanting it so bad to try and keep up with my friends. FB came to my University in 2005, and I've been a faithful follower since. Maybe that's why I can't get rid of it??
