We rode bikes and played in distant neighbourhoods.
We drank from the hose and knocked on doors to see if friends were home.
We had cassettes and walkmans and we rented movies on Friday nights.
We waited all week for Saturday morning cartoons.
You had a Nintendo or a Sega Genesis.
Dial up, cell phones and msn messenger changed your teenage years.
Chances are you know every word to No Scrubs, My Heart Will Go On, Livin On A Prayer, and you still wonder what happened to 2 Pac.
You slow Danced to Aerosmith and Bon Jovi and you loved a bush party.
Singing your favourite songs in the car with your girls are some of your best memories.
Mixed tapes and burning CDs was your job. You bought music in a music store.
Your fridge was stocked with the mini ice cream cups with the swirls and tiny wooden spoon. Hot Dog day at school was the best.
You’ve dressed up like a spice girl and remember your mom’s big hair and shoulder pads.
You’ve revisited the flare and neon trends more than once, Princess Di was your style icon and…………..
Time stood still just a little longer.
I heard someone say if you were born in the 80s and 90s you were the bridge to another world. One that no longer exists, and I felt that.
