On this day 21 years ago, Ninoy Aquino was shot and killed at The Manila International Airport. It was a Sunday. He used the name Marcial Bonifacio. We saw it on TV at the Yakal Residence Hall TV room.

 

Ninoy, in case you don't know, is the father of Kris Aquino.

I remember my red corduroy in the 1970s and my green with yellow stripe PUMA rubber shoes...pagsinuot ko na mga yon kakantahan na ako ng "Boyfriend kong Baduy".

 

teka 80s thread to diba?...

 

1985. the world became aware of the AIDS menace when Rock Hudson died.

 

1986 - two movies i won't forget TOP GUN tom cruise..."you've lost that lovin feeling", "Take my breath away" song definitely became Top Gun's signature. another movie - ALIENS, sigourney weaver , female Rambo.

 

siyempre 1986, historical year sa philippines - people power revolution. wala pa yang mga flyover na yan sa ortigas. mga talahiban pa nuon sa tinatayuan ng robinsons galleria. sa tropical hut pa kami kumakain nuon.

i usually noticed it yung mga naka low-waist corduroy(in the 80's)....then paired with a shirt (with 5 fingers or marijuana print on it).ang shoes mo dapat ay adidas "pro model". pag ganun daw ang outfit mo...."cavitenio" ka raw... correct me if im wrong....

sa mga babae naman yung may "palong" sa buhok.

 

sikat sina boy george ... culture club.

 

footloose movie soundtrack was a hit.

 

Body Rock - very 80s

 

Body Language song sinayaw ni Frida Fronda (tama ba spelling) na banned sa tv station,,,masyadong "exotic" daw hehehe

ung "palong" na buhok sa gals....they call it "tiss".

sino sa inyo ang merong mga tonka na laruan? and buhay pa ba ang mga 33 rpm records nyo? dami ko pang ganun, di ko na magamit.. depeche mode, tears for fears, the clash, the call, spandau ballet, the housemartins, at iba pa.. nagtanong ako kung magkano magconvert from 33 rpm records to cd's, 800 pesos per cd raw! nampucha mas mahal pa sa bagong non-pirated cd..\

My Top 10 signs that the guy/girl is a Caviteno from the 80s:

 

1. Hairstyle: Long hair jeproks-style (instead of syete-style)

2. Pants: Low waist Levi's denims with huge back pockets (not found in regular department stores)

3. Shirts: Hang Ten striped shirts with 3/4 sleeves OR White Fruit of the Loom t-shirts warped at the collar

4. Footwear: Adidas Rubber shoes (guys) OR Happy Feet brand wooden clogs/bakya (girls)

5. Eyewear: Rayban sunglasses with big green oval lenses in lieu of wayfarers

6. Handkerchief: Big scarf with white prints found only in "preferred shops"

7. Belt: Wide leather belts with big buckles made in Recto

8. Music: Rock tunes including Wonderful Tonight and Soldier of Fortune (guys) OR Air Supply (girls)

9. Shopping: Cartimar if not Harrison Plaza

10. After school: Needs to catch a ride at Lawton

I wonder if it was ever popular here in Manila, but we used to have afternoon discos at Cebu Plaza Hotel's Bai Disco. It was usually held on Saturdays and we would give parents weird reasons for heading to school on that day.

Meron din afternoon disco dito sa Manila! The most popular ones that I remember were: On top of Tia Maria's at Greenbelt (forgot the name) for the more upscale crowd AND on top of Syvels Recto (also forgot the name) for the UBelt crowd . . .

 

Help me out here guys! Sa sobrang tagal nakalimutan ko na mga pangalan. Halata tuloy di ako madalas diyan eh

"teased" iyon because you need to tease your hair with a comb...
