Anaheim Posted September 3, 2004 Share Posted September 3, 2004 (edited) something about the 70s posted in our high school website 1978: Long hair2002: Longing for hair 1978: KEG2002: EKG 1978: Acid rock2002: Acid reflux 1978: Moving to California because it's cool2002: Moving to California because it's warm 1978: Trying to look like Marlon Brando or Liz Taylor2002: Trying NOT to look like Marlon Brando or Liz Taylor 1978: Hoping for a BMW2002: Hoping for a BM 1978: The Grateful Dead2002: Dr.Kevorkian 1978: Going to a new, hip joint2002: Receiving a new hip joint 1978: Rolling Stones2002: Kidney Stones 1978: Being called into the principal's office2002: Calling the principal's office 1978: Disco2002: Costco 1978: Parents begging you to get your hair cut2002: Children begging you to get their heads shaved 1978: Passing the drivers' test2002: Passing the vision test (O, how many don't need doblevista today??) A lot of people who are started college two years were probably born in 1983. They are too young to remember the space shuttle blowing up. Their lifetime has always included AIDS. Bottle caps have always been screw off and plastic! The CD was introduced the year they were born. They have always had an answering machine. They have always had cable. They cannot fathom not having a remote control. Jay Leno has always been on the Tonight Show. Popcorn has always been cooked in the microwave. They never took a swim and thought about Jaws. They can't imagine what hard contact lenses are. They don't know who Mork was or where he was from. They never heard: "Where's the Beef?", "I'd walk a mile for a Camel", or "de plane Boss, de plane". They do not care who shot J.R.and have no idea who J.R. even is. Michael Jackson has always been white. McDonald's never came in Styrofoam containers. They don't have a clue how to use a typewriter. They were 3 years old when Marcos was kicked out. (Cory became president). There was always the skyway and overpasses on EDSA. Do you feel old yet?here's my own version of "do you feel old yet?" - pinoy style 1979 - Eat Bulaga , RPN 92004 - Eat Bulaga , GMA 7 1978 - TVJ - Tito, Vic and Joey during lunchtime - matatawa kana2004 - TVP - Textured Vegetable Protein during lunchtime - makakatae kana 1978 - Alaska2004 - ENSURE 1978 - Ariel Ureta2004 - Ariel Rivera 1978 - Rico Puno2002 - Rico Yan 1978 - Bataan Matamis o Lucky Strike2004 - binanatan ng "unlucky stroke" 1978 - the Falcon you knew in the past - Tony Falcon (agent x-44)2004 - the Falcon you admire today - Anna Marie Falcon (Francine Prieto) 1978 - via PIC or GINOO - titigas na2004 - Viagra - titigas na - dagdagan nyo nalang mga 70s peep Edited September 3, 2004 by Anaheim Quote Link to comment

storm Posted September 4, 2004 Author Share Posted September 4, 2004 Ang sikat na telegram service noon ay PT&T. Noong 70s ang usong ini-snatch ay wristwatch kasi wala pang cellphone noon. Noon ay wala pang Fx pero uso noon yung mga yellow minibuses. Noon ay uso pa ang mga loveletters. Kaya dapat ay maganda ang penmanship mo. Dapat marunong ka ring pumili ng statio. Kapag sinabing Honda noon ay tiyak na motorbike. Ang galant at corona nung 70s ay mas maliit pa sa lancer at corolla ngayon. Noon pag sinabing "escort" ay kundi kotse ay boy partner sa debut party, ball or prom. Ang Patrol at Land Cruiser noon ay kasinglaki lang ng X-Trail o Rav 4. Quote Link to comment

jt2003 Posted September 6, 2004 Share Posted September 6, 2004 Ang galant at corona nung 70s ay mas maliit pa sa lancer at corolla ngayon. Ang tibay talaga ng galant noong araw. Ang lakas ng kaha. It was called the Colt Galant, and it was made by Chrysler, not Mitsubishi. It used a Saturn engine. Quote Link to comment

It was called the Colt Galant, and it was made by Chrysler, not Mitsubishi. It used a Saturn engine. Matindi talagang humatak yang Saturn engine. Magkasabay lumabas yang Galant at lancer L type. 1600CC yung Galant, 1400cc yung Lancer. Yung in-law ko ay may dodge colt na 1600cc Saturn. Sayang napabayaan hanggang binenta. Ganda ng tindig nung colt lalo na yung 2-door. Quote Link to comment
