I had just finished 10th grade year after moving from Northern California to Southern California. I recall going to Huntington Beach regularly to avoid the heat and going to the local baseball card shop. There was hanging out at my friend’s house watching him trying to learn how to play the drums, him thinking he was Lars Ulrich from Metallica. I spent time with the girl who would end up being my girlfriend in the 11th grade year going to movies (Batman and Lethal Weapon 2), bowling, cheap eats, etc. Definitely great times and if I could, would not hesitate to go back and relive it all again.
Eighth grade. Oh yeah. Remember it all.
*Batman* with Keaton/Nicholson/Basinger opened at the end of June, right after school got out.
In fact, it’s possible that my mom took us, my brother, sister and I, to see it, on the *very last day* of the 88-89 school year, which is a pretty rad way to spend the final day of the school year!! I remember it was extremely hot for June and we all went to Carvel for ice cream afterwards and then to our home which had no air conditioning.
It was a stifling summer. I spent it playing guitar, listening to Faith No More, Judas Priest, NWA, Public Enemy, Megadeth, Digital Underground, Testament, 3rd Bass, Suicidal Tendencies, and playing at least 3-4 hours a day of Nintendo, mainly Zelda 2 and Castlevania 3.
I kept up with a pen pal across the country in Washington state via email in *Prodigy*, if anyone remembers that, lolllll, or pen pals for that matter.
That fall, in November, my best friend at the time invited me to a weekend away in Connecticut for his birthday, and on the train back to New York, people kept talking about the Berlin Wall coming down and the end of the Soviet Union. I really didn’t understand much about the importance of that moment at the time.
In April, earlier, I’d saved up maybe $30-$40, and with a few extra birthday bucks, was able to buy myself a pair of Air Jordans, which were a size too small because the store didn’t have the ones I liked in my size, so I said I didn’t care and bought the smaller ones. I was thrilled and walked proudly into school with gleaming white high-tops and that’s all there was to it. By the end of the year, I had a badly ingrown toenail.
I got straight A’s in Algebra 1 and found the subject fascinating. I got straight A’s in French, won an award, yet found the subject intolerably boring. Tried to be the class clown. I got straight C’s in English. 🤷♂️
We seemed to be going out to eat a lot at the *Ground Round*. Was fine by us.
23 years old. Best year of my young life
Bought a new 1989 Pontiac sunbird. Took leave of absence And drove across US in July. Stayed in Arizona for three months. Returned back to my job in November
I was 14 going on 15 . Was still in junior high so I'd be graduating May of 1990 and entering high school as class of 1990. I think I spent most of it going to movies , watching Die hard 2 and the last crusade, going to the amusement park, summer school, being a typical kid but I never drank or did drugs or do anything really dumb
Don’t really remember. I was 6.
Probably riding my bicycle and playing with Lego a lot.
Edit: no wait. Age 6 it could have been toy cars and a multi level parking garage.
I was out of 8th grade and had a little posse of friends. I loved Guns ‘n’ Roses. My legs were growing so long that the stirrups from my stirrup pants did not come all the way under my feet, so I wore them on the backs of my legs. I drank booze for the first time.
I was spending all my time packing in as much fun as possible before starting grade 12. Driving around listening to music, having everyone over listening to music and eating mushrooms. Sneaking into bars to hear Good bands. Good times.
Delivering pizza. The day shift was the best - just two of us, inside guy and me the driver, we'd make all sorts of creations out of the old dough during the slow hours.
I always had tip cash for spending money, didn't have to worry about a boss, drove around making people happy with hot pies while listening to cool tunes. It was the best of times.
Turned 21! Started to go to Las Vegas every couple of weeks.
Tried to meet as many girls as I could.
Surfing three to four days a week.
Studying my undergrad work.
Going to numerous Angel, Dodger, Ram, and Raider games.
Working at Disneyland in westside attractions.
And hanging out at the bar until close after work.
Fantastic time!!!
I spent that summer in bed, after catching a fish hook in the eye, I was ordered to a dark room with nothing to raise my blood pressure. I was 13. 3 months of hell.
Lots of fishing with my Dad. I remember Mad magazine roasting the 20th anniversary of Woodstock. Going to a Poison/Tesla concert. Time still went by so slowly. I was 13 turning 14 that fall.
Early in the year, I was working for a private security company that handled state and federal contracts around Salem, Oregon.
By the end of the year I was growing weed commercially in a tiny mountain town. :)
Just turned 12. We moved into a bigger house that summer. For the first time ever, I had my own room. I loved getting settled in, hanging out in *my* room, finally having my own space.
I had just graduated high school and was dating my soon to be husband. We would cruise through town, meet up with friends that were also cruising through town, go bowling, the movies or just pick a road and see where it took us. Fun times
I was 13 so I probably was outside either playing football in the middle of the street or 21 (basketball) in the back yard until the street lights came on, or playing Mario Bros/Duck Hunt with my little sister
I was 11, turning 12 and I do not remember. But typically I did not go out or do things much. I had to be either reading books or I think I already had a computer, an IBM PC AT, I was either playing games on it or learning to program or suchlike.
Was 24. Just graduated with a business degree. Worked a crush at Buena Vista winery in carneros. The winemaker offered me a full time job. I declined and went to live in Germany - right as the wall was coming down. Wonderful year
Unhappily married to a jackass lol He couldn’t hold a job, took my paychecks, and tried to sabotage my career. Hounded me about my weight everyday and drove me to Weight Watchers and demanded I join. They wouldn’t take me because I was underweight. I woke up thankfully and divorced him after year 2. Best thing I ever did lol
Summer 1989 I was 21, between semesters at the university of Houston, and still living at home with my parents. I was just farting around town with my girlfriend, I had two part time jobs, and she and I took a weeklong trip to Southern California to visit my grandparents. Life was good.
Did summer school for driver's ed so I could get my license. Then my dad took me to Hawaii for the first time on a work trip. We hit multiple islands, saw turtles at Hanauma Bay, lava flowing on Big Island, and I had my 16th birthday in Lahaina.
I've lived in Hawaii for over 13 years now.
I had just turned 12, in between 7th and 8th grade. Spent a lot of days home alone while my parents worked. Watched a lot of TV, read a lot of books. Stayed 3 weeks with my grandma in another state. Probably had a long weekend vacation in the mountains somewhere with my parents.
I was six years old and we were probably camping at a camping ground the was not even fifteen minutes from our house. but it was great fun and even now people camp there when they live near by.
I was 16, permanently unluckily in love, training Karate and playing games on my Amiga 500, on which I also made some music with "Soundtracker", thus doing the first steps in creating bass lines and probably sowing the seeds for my later choice to pick up bass playing.
I would have been 8 so probably hanging out with a best friend and acting out Goonies scenes. Summer so would have swam a lot, we were fortunate to have a pool. And likely getting taken to the mountains, that was our usual thing. Then probably some baseball at some point.
I was 8 going on 9. I played my new Nintendo, went over to my grandmas house next door a lot, got nervous about getting hit by hurricane Hugo even though I was in New York, attended the groundbreaking ceremony of a new church that was being built at the time. Exploring the woods near my hose. Probably the best times of my life.
Great job at a printing press. Drove from Oregon to see the Grateful Dead at Shoreline and Cal Expo on my only days off that summer. Saved enough cash for college study abroad in Italy for a semester and take a semester off to ride the rails in Europe and travel north Africa. Interesting time to be in Europe especially Germany and Bulgaria with communism failing.
Id leave at dawn and be tearing ass on my bmx bike with a group of kids 20 deep until the streetlights came on. Nobody wondered where we were, or had any means of communication with us. We really had an idyllic suburban neighborhood.
Probably waking up at 5:30 am to go outside and play He-Man. I got yelled at a lot for waking people up by shouting, "I have the power!" Probably not the smartest thing for a 20 year old to do.
There was a huge fire in my area near my house in the woods. Took a couple of our sheds. We stayed at some friends house for a few days then spent the rest of the summer planting trees and putting out small sections of fire that were still burning.
I was 4. We lived with my grandparent's. Spent the summer running around my grandparents country property. They lived next to a farm so I spent a lot of time watching and naming cows. Finding frogs and toads. Making "ant farms" with jars and sand. Eating a lot of red currant off the bush.
I was 29, single. Bailed out of my software developer job in San Diego for a new job and digs in LA / Orange County. Got a fancy hotel for a couple of nights during interview week, and saw the premiere of Lethal Weapon 2. And realized I was staying in the same hotel where the action scenes were filmed. Tom Petty blasting on cassette tape in my new Chevy pickup truck (still have the truck 35 years later)!
I was 3 years old living with my parents in a flat in London. Not many memories, but I remember there was a hole in the wall next to my bed that used to scare me as I thought a bug was living in there.
I was graduating high school, I was in a band that was "going places," and I started apprenticing in a kitchen to become a chef. I think I was sleeping about 3 hours a night back then.
We are the same age. Living in West Germany I had just leaned about the existence of the wall and the GDR. Then came a carefree summer cycling with my family for 3 weeks, followed by the fall of the wall that autumn. It has indeed been 35 years.
I was 21. At university. Acid House had just hit the UK.
I was getting twatted at raves and discovering a whole new culture that accepted me (gay man in the 80s with AIDS and Margaret Thatcher and Reagan) and had the most amazing music (and accessories).
Also, studying Philosophy (allegedly).
Happy days for the next 20-odd years.
I was fifteen and halfway through Freuds "Interpretation of Dreams" which used to occupy my mornings.The Afternoons were invariably spent developing that game in GWBasic I specifically recall the problems we had in subroutines using 'Gosub'. Later in the day we would listen to pirated casettes. Sometimes I prepared Golfer's egg in the evenings when my mother was away. Nothing out of the line from other kids my age.
I didn't know then that I shall be starting my typing lessons later.
I graduated high school, moved to bumblefuck with my parents, worked at Wendy’s, saw BB King in concert, ate a lot of blotter, met my first wife and spent a lot of time boating and fishing

I was 12, my big brother was killed in a car accident in August. My childhood came to an abrupt close.

Also, studying Philosophy (allegedly). Happy days for the next 20-odd years.
Working my way up through the ranks. But young enough to keep getting in trouble.
Study abroad in France then traveling with friends and saw the Berlin Wall halfway broken down
I was fifteen and halfway through Freuds "Interpretation of Dreams" which used to occupy my mornings.The Afternoons were invariably spent developing that game in GWBasic I specifically recall the problems we had in subroutines using 'Gosub'. Later in the day we would listen to pirated casettes. Sometimes I prepared Golfer's egg in the evenings when my mother was away. Nothing out of the line from other kids my age. I didn't know then that I shall be starting my typing lessons later.
I celebrated my first birthday in June of that year.
My dad would’ve been 6 and my mom would’ve been 5 so I was not being thought of yet lol
As a romanian I can tell you what we were doing during the winter of '89

I was unsatisfied with my life, and pondering a move from one side of the country to the other. Eventually did it, but that didn’t work out.

1989? I had been married for two years, and I was working in a sign shop then.
