You were a child in the 80's (Part three)

You completely wore out your Grease, Saturday Night Fever, and Fame soundtrack record albums. (I made my little brother Sam roller skate in the garage to Grease over and over....I had a yellow flower skirt (kinda like "little house" style) that I wore over a black leotard and twirled and twirled! I was so cool! Sam hated it!)


You used to tape record songs off the radio by holding your portable tape player up to the speaker.

You couldn't wait to get the free animal poster that came when you ordered books from the Scholastic book club.
Double score if it was a teddy bear dressed in clothing. And the posters always had permanent creases because they came folded!

You learned everything you needed to know about "the facts of life" from Judy Blume books.

You thought Olivia Newton John's song "Physical" was about aerobics.






You wore friendship pins on your tennis shoes, or shoelaces with heart or rainbow designs.

You wanted to be a Solid Gold dancer.
(I didn't just "want" to be one.....I was determined to be one!)




You had a Big Wheel with a brake on the side (if you were Sam you had it 8 years! HA!), and a Sit-n-Spin.



How about drowning yourself in Love's Baby Soft? The first "real" perfume you ever owned!

You had subscriptions to Dynamite and Tiger Beat.

You spent your allowance on Smurfs and stickers for your sticker album!
(Who was your favorite Smurf?)
