Who am i? ( the non-emo version)

Hello folks,
It's been awhile and i'm a lazy git to be honest,  so let's crack on!. Over Christmas, i have discovered that for some reason i have lost all my notes from the first term of contextual studies, so i am going to endevour to write it all again, but on this blog page for all of you to read * insert whoops of joy here*.
Thankfully all of the topics which have been covered can be found on  the moodle page, so here's to starting from scratch.
 My Timeline
One of the first things  i was asked to do was to think about my past, what events have transpired throughout my lfe what has happened in the world whilst i was growing up?. I't s really interesting to think of the  way art, fashion, film changed over the years i have been alive. Are our opinions and our notions influenced by the things around us?, almost certainly. I wonder how many times people have had to listen to me rant about how" music was music when i was growing up, not like the crap  these kids are listening to." i never thought it would happen to me, but it did and it'll most likely happen to everyone.
We were asked to look at the year we were born and list some of the things that happened in the world, believe it or not some crazy things happened in 1981...
1.
March 30 – U.S. President Ronald Reagan is shot in the chest outside a Washington, D.C. hotel by John Hinckley, Jr. Two police officers and Press Secretary James Brady are also wounded.

2. May 13 – Pope John Paul II is shot and nearly killed by Mehmet Ali Ağca, a Turkish gunman, as he enters St. Peter's Square in Vatican City to address a general audience.

3.July 29 – A worldwide television audience of over 700 million people watched the Wedding of Charles, Prince of Wales, and Lady Diana Spencer at St Paul's Cathedral in London.


4.August 24 – Mark David Chapman is sentenced to 20 years to life in prison, after being convicted of murdering John Lennon in Manhattan 8 months earlier

5. September 19 – Simon & Garfunkel perform The Concert in Central Park, a free concert in New York in front of approximately half a million people.

plus these films were released  this year...
 Superman II
Raiders of The Lost Ark
Time Bandits
On Golden Pond
An American Werewolf in London.
Not too shabby really,also i would like to mention that one of my favourite bands Metallica formed this year, which is kind of poetic seeing as how i now play in a heavy metal band myself. Anyway i think that this is enough from me tonight, i shall be attempting to put together a timeline showing some of the memories i have from my life and show some of the key pieces of film and music that are still very important and influential to me today. Stay tuned and thanks for reading.
