I grew up in the cool 80’s. MTV played “Video killed the Radio Star” and totally revolutionized the way I listened (err, watched) to music.  Cyndi Lauper and Madonna were big stars (back then, plump was cute, too), and heck, I dressed like them.  I wanted to look like them.  I wanted to be a totally, for sure Valley Girl! I wanted big pink hair, bleached with peroxide, which my mom and my ultra-conservative school would of course not allow, explosive clothing, and I wanted “excessories”!!! Compact discs are still to be discovered.  Cable TV had only 20 channels.  And blogging was completely unheard of.  

I used to have this little diary which my mom got me for Christmas.  I wrote to it every night, treating it like a real friend.  It had this little key, so that nobody would ever dare read my thoughts. I would never have thought that in the near future, diaries are not supposed to be kept.  They are supposed to be shared, and read by just anybody, yup, even a person you don’t know.  Blogging became a word in the dictionary and Blog literally killed my secret little diary.
I am the Lumpy Cloud Princess.  I dream, I rule, I wish, I love. I’m tough.  I’m soft.  I’m loud.  I’m hard.  I’m quiet.  I am white and I am grey.  Follow me!!!

    Hi Vanessa,

    I still listen to 80's music and it brings back those good old memories. Very interesting post. I'll be looking forward for your upcoming posts.

    Hi Marie!

    I kept diaries most of my life too. I still have the one from when I was thirteen, one when I was fifteen (written in shorthand) and my college diaries. I keep them on and off. Just remembered, I have to go and write an entry in my new diary – I call it the prayer journal. It's inspired by one of the characters in The Help, a maid who wrote her prayers at night instead of saying them. Happy blogging!
