Day 31 - School Field Trip

And with that... It's done. I did it. Maylennial is complete.

In the 5th grade, we went to Camp Fitch as a school trip. My fondest memory of that trip was sliding down a huge snowy hill on a large inner tube with one of my friends. (Cont.)

#maylennial Day 9 - Peak 90s Vivid Color

I know I only ever do black and white, but still, those funky fresh bright neon windbreakers will *never* go out of style

#maylennial Day 8 in 15 minutes - First Concert Memory

A millennial is never late, he posts precisely when he means to. My first real concert was only a few years ago, RHCP and The Strokes with my grad school mentor. But I’ll never forget the view/vibe of the city at night.

Today's #Maylennial Day 7 prompt was the glow-in-the-dark stars. I remember laying in bed and just watching the ceiling. In my little imagination, I was floating through space. It was great!

#maylennial Day 7 in 15 minutes - Glow-in-the-Dark Stars

I never had these growing up, but what I remember about them was how they shined more than you’d think

#maylennial Day 5 - 90's Kids Books

Rainbowfish was written and illustrated by Marcus Pfister in 1992 and has been teaching children the importance of sharing with others ever since. #90skids

#drawing #sketchbook

I was gonna ink this and erase out my guides, but then I thought it looked really neat and decided to share the pencil sketch as is.

#Maylennial Day 6 in 15 minutes- Emo/Punk

Was there anything more iconic of listening to music on the bus to school than a Sony Walkman?

Quick and dirty #Maylennial Day 6. Theme is Emo or Punk. Growing up I watched a lot of Nightmare Before Christmas...that counts, right?

#Maylennial Day 7 - Glow Stars

I never had these in my youth, but I have toddlers now, so Mrs. Lairon insisted we get some.

While not as glaring (heh) as this, I sometimes find them more distracting than comforting. Oh well, s'for the children.

#Maylennial Day 6 - Emo

A bit of a cheat. I didn't have the typical "dress in black, wear mascara" outward emo appearance, but I *did* have the standard issue early 00's teen angst MySpace blog. Updated faithfully(ish) once a week.

#Maylennial Day 5 in 15 minutes - 90s Kids Books

Book, why did you draw a bathtub? Because when I was in elementary school, it’s not *what* you read, it was *where*, and no place made us want to read more than the clawfoot tub in the middle of my school’s library, filled with pillows/blankets

I struggled with what to draw for this #Maylennial Day 5, and the prompt was 90s Kids Books. I loved Shel Silverstein books growing up and The Giving Tree was classic!

Day 4 - VHS

I remember when I was a kid, I didn't actually own The Lion King, instead mom had taped it for me on this ancient device

I don't think Hercules was ACTUALLY on this tape, by the way, but I feel like there was something else on it besides Lion King

#Maylennial in 15 minutes Day 4 - VHS

Remember when these VHS box sets of the original Trilogy were EVERYWHERE? Millennials remember

So #Maylennial Day 4. The prompt was VHS. Remember when we would rent movies and we had to make sure that the movies were rewound before you returned them? I also was on the receiving end when someone DIDN'T do it and I was ticked. Good times.

#Maylennial Day 5 - 90s Books

Easily my favourite Goosebumps story - why choose to maintain an actively shitty status quo when you're being offered the imperial throne of an alien planet? FINALLY, a protagonist who makes the rational choice in the end.

Took my SIL’s advice and added more shading 😌

Definitely worth the effort.

Day 3: Mixtape
I'm nearly caught up!

#Maylennial Day 4 - VHS

Y'see kids, in our day, movies came on giant plastic bricks with magnetic tape coiled up inside 'em. And it was a time honoured tradition to check when a popular movie was on TV, and you'd seal it's soul into one of these bad boys.

Posting from a day behind because I'm busy! But I will catch up.

I could have drawn a lot of different things for this prompt,but since this is a nostalgia adjacent drawing challenge, I decided on this Wii-era memory. :)

I remember downloading Limewire and pumping my MP3 player full of poorly-labeled MP3s, then taking that player everywhere with me

It's time for #Maylennial Day 3! I made a few CD Mixtapes for friends...and this was just some of the songs I listened to back then! Also made those cases from printer paper if I wanted to bring it to someone!
