NO.21
Friday, 13 May 2016
As I type this blog post it will be exactly one weeks in till I am twenty-one years-old. Even saying that to myself is absolutely mad. But it is true and coming up very soon. It's a milestone in everyone's life to show that you are now a proper adult with a job and things to pay for. I wonder why they call it a milestone? Like we need to celebrate getting it this far in to our lives it's an achievement in itself.
Turning twenty-one means a number of things: 1- you're into the second year of your twenties, 2-you can legally drink alcohol in America and 3-you have freedom. Back in say the 1950's most women in their twenties had settled down, married and become a full town housewife. But now to be in your twenties in 2016 means enjoying every bit of freedom you have in your life. You can travel the world and experience life changing moments that you don't get when your married with children. Not that there's anything wrong with that. For me I will be celebrating my twenty-first with a joint party with my friend who is also turning twenty-one and a very exciting trip to New York city.
In celebration of turning this amazing age I've decided to wrote a post celebrating what was happening in the world twenty-one years ago in terms of music, fashion and sport.
Music in the 90's was all about the brit pop battle between Oasis and Blur as they fought the charts for that very important number 1. It wasn't just cool, indi bands making headlines but a girl group that go buy the name of The Spice Girls. With their individual styles and personality they brought a whole to world to the music industry.
In my opinion fashion in the 90's was brilliant. It allowed all people of any background to dress exactly how they want. Even to this day the same trends are all the range including; crop tops, denim and slip dresses.
Football had moved on from the hooligan days of rival teams in the late 70's and 80's creating a more safer, friendlier environment. Everton won the FA cup against Man u and Blackburn rovers won the premier league.
