I Love The 80's

The 80's. A time full of crazy hair and colorful clothes anddd amazing music! The time I wasn't born. I was actually born in 2005 not 1980. I honestly wish I had been born in the 80's. I would do anything to have been born then, or lived in it. But instead I'm stuck with a bunch of electronic obsessed kids.

I'm Tiara, by the way, a miserable 16 year old girl in high school trying to make it out alive. Living in a small town in northern Indiana doesn't give you much hope for the future.

It's almost Christmas and I'm hoping for a electric guitar so I can play my favorite 80's jams.

I've grown up listening to the 80's my whole life thanks to my parents. Well, mainly my dad, he's the one who got me hooked on rock'n'roll. KISS is my favorite band. Motley Crue being next. I even got my name thanks to Kiss, well thanks to a memeber from Kiss. Eric Carr who is my favorite and my moms favorite member of the band had a song that he made while he was with Kiss. It was never played by Kiss or made into a big hit, but it would have if Eric had lived longer.

Eric had a song called Tiara and its the most moving song I've ever heard. It's so sweet and slow, it's the perfect ballad. Eric died November 24 1991 due to heart cancer, which I think is the worst death to such a kind man. He was only 41 when he died. I about cry every time I think about it. I also think he was a very attractive man. If I ever met him I might not be able to control myself from jumping on him.

Anyways, I should probably stop fantasizing during class.

I looked up at the clock, it was 2:47. I sighed as I laid my head down on my arms. Mrs. Beck was lecturing about what projects we'd be doing once we got back from Christmas break. I loved art I really did, I just really wanted out of this school. After about 20 minutes of her talking about random stuff she stopped and we only had about another 5 minutes before the bell rang. I gathered my stuff and stood up to fix my shirt. I stood by myself until the bell rang and as soon as it did I bolted out the door.

I squeezed down the crowded hallway and to my locker. I quickly did my combo and opened my locker. I grabbed my things and stuffed it all in my backpack. Then I started making my way to the bus. I opened the door and was hit in the face by a cold brisk winter wind. I squinted through the snowflakes coming at my face and hurried to the bus.

Once I got on the bus I went all the way to the back of the bus and scooted in close to the window. I popped in my headphones and tuned out every noise on the bus. I wasn't looking forward to my usual 40 minute bus ride.

I finally got home and moped up the driveway. I typed in the code to the garage door and went inside. My dog Ruger was wagging his big fluffy tail viciously. I let him out and he about toppled me over when I opened his cage and he charged right at me with excitement. I made him go pee before I let him inside. I went inside and set my stuff down before getting a snack.

Christmas was Sunday so I had to get through tomorrow and then it would be Christmas morning. It wasn't going to be the usual crazy Christmas this year. My 3 older brothers had graduated and gone separate ways so it was just me left. But little did I know, it was going to be the most life changing Christmas ever.
