Happy Friday, Mes Amies!
How is this the last Friday of July?? I know, I sound like a
broken record, but I wish summer could last forever.
Its been a bit since we have done a “Friday Five”. When I
saw these questions, I couldn’t resist taking part.
As always, I’d love to see your answers too!
1. What toys were popular when you were a kid?
Oh boy, this is a fun one! Let’s see… My Little Pony,
Popples (My favorite) , Skip-It, Jem & The Holligrams
2. What musicians were popular when you were a teenager?
Ahhh, the late 90’s (THE BEST!!) Dave Matthews Band, The Gin
Blossoms, Better Than Ezra, The Mighty Bosstones
3. What unique personality traits do you think you have in
common with others born around the same time as you?
This is an easy one… A commonality I noticed with people my
age is that we feel as if we don’t belong to any generation. We were too young
to be “Gen X”. Yet, we feel older and different than millennials. I saw it
described perfectly once, mind you I am paraphrasing, but folks my age had an
analog high school experience (think taping songs off the radio), and a digital
college experience.
We straddled the line between the generation in front of us
and the one behind us.
4. Do you think stereotypes about your generation are accurate?
To a degree… that’s not necessarily a bad thing though.
5. What do you admire about other generations?
If you want to talk about admiration, the “Greatest
Generation” deserves it all.
Children who grew up during the great depression, just to
come of age and be charged with the task of fighting literally to keep the world
free and defeat the Nazis and their allies.
Then, they came home and built this country strong and more
solid than it had ever been.
All right, that’s a wrap on this week!
Have a beautiful weekend!
