1. Why did you choose those years?

2. Okay, I'll spill the beans...
1929 - the year of the market crash.
1974 - Nixon resigns.
1982 - the 'Doctor Who' story 'Four to Doomsday' first aired.
1066 - the Battle of Hastings.
1666 - the Great Fire of London took place.
1776 - the American war of Independence from Great Britain and its oppressive tax and other policies on its people.
2000 - Futurama was a hit show on FOX... for about a week
1967 - the purported "Summer of Love", though "Batman" reached peak popularity in this year as well.
1991 - I'm not quite sure right now. Maybe I just wanted one year from the 1990s to be represented...

Other - just in case anybody wanted to put in their own year. :D

4. 2000
March 18th through the 25th, Washington DC. Presidential Classroom: Future World Leaders Summit. Part of the Puerto Rican delegation. I was 16, and spent a week hanging out with 399 other teens from all over the globe.

I learned what happiness was during that week, and I think I might have left it there...

5. 1998
Specifically, the summer of '98. Life was damn good for me then. Let me list the ways:

1. Just graduated from high school
2. No responsibilities.
3. HOT girlfriend (that hadn't gone insane yet)
4. Getting laid constantly
5. Parties ALL the time
6. Still was in great shape

I could go on, but instead I think I'll start crying. :cry:

6. I want to go clothes-shopping in 1996-1997
Other than that, I'm pretty happy with life as it is! :)
