The 90s were an absolutely unmistakeable decade. Disco, parties, techno, shrill, funky outfits, screaming teens and shrill neon colours everywhere.

Politics 🗳📰
1991:

Second Gulf War: Iraq invades Kuwait; Allied forces led by the USA liberate the Gulf State

The declaration of independence of the Baltic States initiates the disintegration of the Soviet Union. The dissolution of the "Eastern Block"

UNOSOM operations in Somali

1992:

The Maastricht Treaty as the basis of the EU is signed

Bill Clinton becomes the 42nd US president elected

Switzerland rejects accession to the European Economic Area

The year goes down in history for the British royal family as "Annus horribilis"

✨Trends ✨:

The 90s style is preppy and shrill, it is R'n'B, Pop, Grunge and Techno combined. Short, tight tops and dresses, mini skirts, dungarees, slip dresses (optionally also over T-shirts), check and leo patterns were particularly popular.

Music 🎵🎶:

Aside from rap, reggae, contemporary R&B, and urban music in general remained extremely popular throughout the decade; urban music in the late-1980s and 1990s often blended with styles such as soul, funk, and jazz, resulting in fusion genres such as new jack swing, neo-soul, hip hop soul, and g-funk which were popular.

Novella are epic texts. The outstanding feature of a novella is its length: Although it is longer than a short story, it is significantly shorter than a Roman. The term "novel" comes from the Italian word "novella", which means "little news".

Features:

Has a clear and straightforward structure.

Has a framework story in which the actual narrative is embedded.

Tells a central conflict.

Has a clear height and turning point.

Has a clear conclusion.

Short story ≠ Novell :

A short story is short and usually describes a single episode, much is only hinted at. A novella is a kind of novel, only shorter. Persons and plot are presented, an arc of tension is built up - everything as in a "big" book, only greatly shortened.

Definition:
Youth language refers to ways of speaking or linguistic patterns and characteristics that different groups of young people use or have used at different times, at different ages and under different communication conditions.

Above all, it should be noted that there is no uniform youth language. Rather, these are forms of expression that develop in intra-group communication and thus also take on different forms under different geographical, social and historical conditions.

I personally think youth language is very important to my generation because we use it on a daily base for example at school when we talk to each other. But in my opinion we shouldn’t use it to much because later in life you shouldn’t use youth language in serious situations like job interviews and when we use youth language to much it could become a habit.

Hey Charlie,

I heard you really like the smiths? Well I listened to a couple of songs of them and I have to say that they do really great music. Even though I don’t really like this music genre I enjoyed it pretty much. Normally I hear such music like hip hop or RnB. You should check it out I think you maybe will really like some of these songs. I hope that I could help you find new songs that you enjoy hearing. Well have a nice day.

Lots of Love
Julia :)

Brad and Janet are newly engaged and on their way to their mutual friend Dr. Everett Scott. On the way, however, they suffer a car breakdown. Nearby they  find an old castle where theycan find shelter. The hunchbacked servant Riff Raff and the housemaid Magenta let them in and lead them to their even scarier master. Dr. Frank N. Furter is currently experimenting with artificially manufacturing a person. Brad and Janet are experiencing an all-changing horror show.

Don't Dream It; Be It. The biggest message of Rocky Horror Picture Show — and the biggest reason why it is still relevant today — is because it dares audiences. It tells them “Don't dream it, be it.” That's the theme of Rocky Horror and it's one that has lasted throughout the years.

In the book the Perks of being a wallflower we get to know that that Charlie's school Theater plays the Rocky horror picture show. The cast are Patrick as Frank N’ Further, Sam as Janet and Craig as Brad.
Patrick plays Frank N’ Further because their character is very similar for example we get to know Patrick as the crazy and goofy person. Just like Frank N’ Further in the film. He also seems VERY Crazy.
Sam has the role of Janet. That also fits very well because in the film it seems like Janet don't really knows what she wants and that she is really insecure. And sam is not very differente than that. In the book she is described as a girl that has as low self-esteem.
And lastly there is Rocky played by Craig. Rocky is a tall, muscular, tanned guy that seems very mature. Thats why craig gets the role for him. He fits perfectly in his role.
