What was the first CD (or record or cassette) you ever purchased?

Beverly Hills 90210: The Soundtrack baby!  Yes, I know many people can relate! Hahahaha! This was the most watched teeny bopper drama out there for a while before all the reality shows invaded our television! This was the IT show in the early ’90s and like many people, I was hooked on the show! 🙂  So hooked that the show’s soundtrack was my very first cassette tape purchased and I bought it with my own money! It’s actually my birthday money that I had saved since I just turned 12 at that time! LOL! I watched the show religiously so when I found out that there is a soundtrack coming out, I prayed so hard that someone will give me some birthday money so that I can buy it. Hahahaha! Thank God my prayer was answered!

I couldn’t wait to get it and boy I played it nonstop on my Walkman (LOL)! Lucky my Dad bought me a Walkman and it was even in my favorite color, yellow! It was a GPX Sports Walkman and it’s water-resistant! OMG! That’s totally vintage now! Hahahaha! I loved every song in their soundtrack and if you ask me to sing it now, I can definitely still sing it! I listened to it constantly that I would always ran out of batteries! Such a bummer! For a 12-year-old, buying batteries all the time is not an option so eventually I just started listening to it at night before going to bed that way my battery will last longer. LOL!

Oh, the joys of life! The little things that made me happy then and it still does now 🙂 . The priceless moments that I wouldn’t trade for anything in the world…memories that I will forever keep that always puts a smile on my face 🙂

How about you? What was your first CD or record or cassette that you’ve purchased and why? 🙂
