Remember 1988

that year was a blast. i finished high school a semester early and went to college outside of philly that january and had my 18th birthday there. that first semester i had one girlfriend from maine and two from long island in addition to one i left back home in north carolina and a few other flings. that fall semester in '88 i settled down to just one from upstate NY. and by settled down i mean i only messed around with one other girl from virginia.

 

i went to some fun concerts that year. def leppard (sooooo many girls in spandex), queensryche, whitesnake, acdc, cinderella, robert plant, and i'm sure i'm forgetting a few others.

 

i was looking at a list of movies that came out just to see and i was surprised at how many movies there were that i loved. tha adventures of baron munchausen and dangerous laiasons (both inroduced us to uma thurman whoch made them worth watching), young guns and die hard, beetlejuice, willow, tequila sunrise, biloxi blues, twins (don't judge me), the seventh sign, rattle and hum, big, the great outdoors, funny farm, the serpent and the rainbow, a fish called wanda, midnight run....nothing really spectacular in there but still some good memories.

 

there was this one wierd horror movie i remember seeing that year that i never heard anything about afterwards and i can't remember the name. i think it  was a movie about a serial killer showing up at a movie about some crazy guy who went on some killing spree. i'm probably confused with that last part, but i remember that pat of it took place at a movie theater. there was this one point in the movie that they showed one of those spinning hypnotic wheels on the whole screen. there was lots of funky stuff in it and i can't remember anyone that was in it.

 

tv was kind of meh, imo, that year. cheers, cosby show and a different world, and a few others, but i didn't watch much. we didn't have tvs in our dorm rooms. there was one in each dorm in the lobby and i never really had chances to control the tv and even then i rarely paid attention to what was going on.

 

looking back on that year, it was amazing how much i crammed into that year when it seems these years all i have to do is blink and it's over.
