H.Nantz+1990

Dear Diary, Oh 1990, what a year it has been. So many crazy things happened. Finally, Nelson Mandela was freed after being in jail for 27 ½ years. I cannot imagine being in jail for that long! This was definitely a year for pop culture too. Pretty Woman aka best movie ever hit theaters and melted hearts everywhere. I may be guilty of falling in love with that movie. Also, Bette Midler, my singing idol, won herself a Grammy for her song //Wind beneath My Wings//! You go Bette! I'm probably going to dance to that at my wedding. Except I heard it at a funeral soooooo that could be a bad sign. I cannot believe another Grammy winning group Milli Vanilli were caught lip synching on the album they won the Grammy with. Milli, guys, DON’T LIP SYNC. It’s a sin. The rating “X-rated” is now “NC-17”. What does it even matter? It’s not like they actually put movies with those ratings in theaters, that's gross. The Academy Award for Best Picture won by //Driving Miss Daisy// definitely didn’t have that kind of rating. On a more serious note, I saw on TV that they launched the Hubble Telescope! Maybe I’ll go to space one day…. Some serious politics are going down. The Western Alliance ended the Cold War, East and West Germany reunite, and the Gulf War starts. Some big changes were going on in the world of politics. I wonder what will happen next year.....

Later! Haley
