| Did you do any traveling in the 1990s? | | I was really keen on traveling by age 18 years old. I wanted so very much to get enough money to travel around Europe. I wondered how I would afford it because I was a student. When my studies ended I got a job as a children's nanny in Finland. I liked working for the family. They had three houses, a town house, a farm house in the country and a lakeside cottage. After that I went around Europe by train on my own. Then I got a job in London at a shipping company. At age 19 I got left some money in my Great Aunts will. It was enough for me to buy a small cottage. I went traveling to Tunisia and St Lucia. I did a trip to other places in Europe by train in the winter of 1992. I was sadly made redundant from my job so I let out my cottage and off I went on my trip around the world in 1993. I got married and had my son after that. Six years later I got divorced. In 1996 I went to Malta, the Czech Republic and Poland. I traveled to Kenya in 1997. In 1997 I visited Israel and Jordan. I explored Germany and Austria in 1999.Did you do any traveling in the 1990s?
If so where did you go? | |
| | Men's fashions in the 1990s | | http://tinyurl.com/5mqoajAnother article that I wrote a while ago, for the promise of money up front. As you can probably see from it, I don't have much of a fashion sense to start with.For those of you old enough to remember, what did you wear back in the 1990s? I honestly couldn't even tell you what the trends were back then. 60s, 70s, 80s, definitely. The 90s are just this big blank to me, though. | |

| | Do you miss the 1990s? Why? | | Do you wish it was still the 1990s? Why? What was the '90s for you? Dance music? House? Indie/Alternative? Raves? Britpop? Was it a good decade, or not as exciting as the '80s, '70s, '60s? Do you miss the decade last, or are you happy in the '00s? | |

| Whatever Happened To Those Boy Bands? | | During the 90s boy bands were popping out like mushrooms. Every month there was a new group formed. Some were successful and some forgettable. Some of them were cheesy while some of them are really cheesy but made good music. Their songs dominated the radio and girls went crazy over them. I wonder why the boy band craze stopped. Not that I like them. The ones you can still hear now are the ones from the 90s and they all got old. | |

| Which is the most popular Jon Bon Jovi Number till date? | | I have been a die hard fan of rock music from a very young age. Although there are no coincidences related to this; but when I was a kid, i used to listen to All India Radio Western Music Section; which used to be played every night at 11.30 pm. And it was there that i first heard the likes of Metallica, Iron Maiden,Bruce Springstean and Jon Bon Jovi. And since then i have been listening to Rock almost non-stop till now. Although there have been many hits belted out by rock groups; but Bon Jovi's "Blaze Of Glory" still seems to me the most powerful number written, composed and performed by Jon himself.DO you guys agree on this...? | |
| | beck's new album | | i grew up listening to 90's alternative bands. and beck's song, loser, reached me just by familiarity because of the same stream with nirvana, goo goo dolls and etc.
i happened to listen to it again, accidentally and yeah, i know beck. and now his new album, modern guilt. i think i'm gonna like this one. | |

| What Would the 1990s be Called? | | Every decade has a name, such as the '60s is the Disco Age. Looking back at all the decades, every one has a specific name except for one, the '90s. In fact, no phrase really stands out for the 1990s. Although no one has keyed a name for the decade, there were several major events that occured during this period. Several events that will always be remembered in the minds of America. Consequently, these events have shaped the world we live in and the way we think about various things. When I say major events, I don't necessarily mean events that were for the better. I'm trying to point out more tragic events because although we all love to see happy endings, the ones that leave an everlasting affect are the meloncholy ones.
The '90s was a time of great change. The typically rock music had faded and the "good old days" were definitely gone by now. So, heading into the decade few knew what to expect and some of the events that they got were anything but pleasant. The 1990s was a heavy time for major crimes and trajic events. The event I'm about to mention are some that I'm almost sure you still remember today.
*1990 - The Desert Storm (Begginning of Saddam Hussein)
*1991 -... | |
| | I miss the old TV shows | | I remember being younger and watching TV. I used to watch Full House, Family Matters and Sienfeld. I loved shows like that. They were so creative and funny. These shows are barely on today, which makes me sad. Today we are stuck with more reality shows than shows based on North American families. Watching these shows was one of my favourite pastimes. I used to look looking up to these shows and wanting to be some of these girls, especially the girls from Full House. Today's shows dont do it for me. I wish these older shows would come back! Does anyone else have any other shows they miss watching and which ones? | |
