1985 - lost my first job due to a massive lay off, and moved to a new locale, where my "then" husband found a job (he lost his job the same day I did).
1985, continued - relocated, and found work in the banking industry, which is where I've been ever since!!
The 80's weren't cruel, but I'm glad they are over!!! :)
In 1981 i had my first child, my son, 14 mths later i separated from his father, and shifted from Auckland City to Hamilton, and have been here ever since, i grew up here from my teens so it was good to be back home, i then continued to raise my son alone until he was ten yrs old and met my present husband, we have a daughter together who is now 10 nearly 11.
The 80s were hard times for me, going it alone, but i dont regret it one bit, but i think the 70s were my fun and party times really
Love the 80s
--born Jan. 1980
--started kindergarden 1984
--watched my first music video when MTV started...still remember it-Micky by Toni Basil-I still love that song
--started dance class in1984 and continued dancing and eventually teaching dance for the next 16 years
--watched Fraggle Rock, Smurfs, Carebears, Jem etc..
--listened to way too much Debbie Gibson, Tiffany and yes...New Kids on the Block and went to the concerts - My Mother must have had the patience of a saint to take me and sit through those concerts.
Hmm let's see

1984- Had snack taken away for a week in pre-school because I refused to eat raisins...I can't eat dead grapes I'm sorry.
1985-Started elementary
1989-went to DisneyLand for the first time
and other then that not much happened at least not that I can remember. I do however remember a heck of alot of good cartoons, 80's songs I should be to young to remember (2 older sisters) oh and the Minipops.
Let's see, the 80's were definitely better than the 90's:

87-89 - made up for time lost while at university (i.e., did alot of partying).
89 - Changed jobs (but didn't move!!). Met my former partner (see 90's thread).
Only went to university once during the 80's (made up for it during the 90's)
Early 80's: drugs, rock n' roll, booze, motorcycles, women
Late 80's: drugs, rock n' roll, booze, motorcycles, women, jail
Not a successful way to live!
