Back To The 70's

[Magaling]

Platform shoes ng chancellor or glenmore. 

 

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

 

Hinahanap mo ba

Ang tunay na toga?

Glenmore ang tatak ng sapatos

Sa bawat hakbang ay walang paltos

Yan ang Glenmore shoes . . .

 

Refrain:

Glenmore! Glenmore!

Matibay, may class at may uri

Glenmore! Glenmore!

Yan ang Glenmore shoes . . .

 

Ayos! :thumbsupsmiley:

[bonjing]

And the biggest FAUX PAS... (next only to Liberty's Flowing Floral  ) was wearing a wrap around long sleeve dress with PUCCI-esque prints ( as usual with the whole spectrum of colors)  lugging an envelope bag.  In a HS party at age 14 !!!!.. Little Matrona ang dating. 

 

Quirky...Syano Queen. .my soul sisters..I know you are lurking around in the thread...llaughing your heads off, and enjoying the memories...you have to give your share to this thread...after all you were in the same parties...looking equally horrific as I did.  If you don't Masi will not invite you to the next EB

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

 

 

siguro ngayon, you'll say that.... "little matrona".... pero during that time, the guys will be ogling and saying "ganda nung chick o'....."

[Wyld]

I think it was my fifth birthday or so when my sister made me wear a pair of orange double knit pants (the ones with diagonal texture) and one of those flowery, fluffy blouses thats gathered at the neck and wrists... cant describe it exactly but im sure you can imagine...

 

And I was a chubby little girl so ... I looked like a little throw pillow wearing that outfit... :boo:

[masi]

In any ordinary day, I cannot imagine the fashion augustmoon, wyld and liberty have been enumerating in their posts. It's a good thing, we are just a few weeks to Holloween and somehow I can visualize how this fashion would fall right into the occasion.

 

Magaling, great posting the jingle of Glenmore shoes!!!! I was proud of wearing my Glenmore platforms to school. Made me walk tall, literally!!!!

 

Oo, nga naman, if you belong to the 70s and are simply lurking in this thread, better come out and share you're version of this era!!! Then strut your stuff at the next eb.

[Wyld]

Speaking of Halloween... I so wanna go as a 70s girl ... I want to wear one of those psychedelic print mini dresses and knee high boots ... but the weather might be too cold for that sort of outfit.

 

We shall see. :boo:

[augustmoon]

siguro ngayon, you'll say that.... "little matrona".... pero during that time, the guys will be ogling and saying "ganda nung chick o'....."

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

 

Bonjing....more like...SCORCHING !!!! as in Flames!!! Flames!!! May sunog... dahil sa DAMI ng KULAY

 

You should join us in our next EB...and so goes for the others who are in the thread now... Sorry Wyld, unless I win the Lotto..you'll have to there in spirit lang... sabagay, ikaw lang ang mascot doon. :*

[Wyld]

I knowwww... but the minute I get home... Sama ako ha?

 

Payag ako maging mascot! :boo: :*

"Bato" also used to refer to a muscular person.

"Syoke" applied more to an effeminate person than to a gay one, while "gay" used to mean happy.

As for the "ngatnat" finger, we actually used to say "Ngatngatin mo!" which you never hear these days. Gamit ngayon ng mga tao, "Up yours."

 

I remember how, one time, my friends and I were having cigarettes and beer at a place that we called Penthouse. Suddenly, one of my friends shouted "Parak!" We all ran for cover. It was while we were hiding that I asked, "Anong parak?" Natawa na lang sila. Kung hindi ko alam, bakit ako tumakbo?

 

There was also the term "square" which referred to fight without weapons. Walang restbackan din. In school, pagnagkakainitan na, sasabihin, "Ano, mamaya?" Back in high school, those fights were spectacles. They often happened after class...and often with an audience.

Since we're a bit on Halloween....

 

Remember how, in the 70s, we never celebrated Halloween? It was really so foreign to us.
