What is it like to be born in the 1980's?

Every generation changes over time ever since I was born. The only stuff I know about the 1980's is the stuff I read from the books about that time. The only music I usually listen to back than was music that kids enjoy such as Sesame Street,Barney and other kid oriented music. At that time of period I usually play with Stuff Animals, toy weapons and action figures. Historically; the 1980's is the technological era when computers were invented, Nintendo was big and MTV was playing music videos of that generation. Famous movies of the 1980's was another development of that era. Famous movies include: The Empire Strikes Back, Return of the Jedi, Nightmare on Elm Street, ET, Jaws 3 and Jaws the Revenge. Even some of the Rocky movies were out as well.

The Fashion from the 1980's was miraculously different as well. Torn Jeans was a hit as well as spandex and multicolor shirts and tank tops. The music of the 1980's was different as well from classic rock, the rise of hip-hop and heavy metal. Real life events occurred during that time when I was born. I got adopted, "even though I don't remember" I went through Open Heart Surgery for the first time when I was five, and started my education in kindergarten and early elementary school.

Basically the 1980's feels like home from moving from Ohio to Indiana. I spent the rest of my child hood from the late 80's and way into the 90's of which I will discuss in the next blog
