Take me back to July 31st, 1994!

Let's go back in time!

The date is July 31st, 1994, and it's a Sunday. Anyone born today will have the star sign Leo. Currently, people are enjoying their weekend.

It's summer, so the temperatures are warmer and the evenings are longer than usual. In America, the song I Swear by All-4-One is on top of the singles charts. Over in the UK, Love Is All Around by Wet Wet Wet is the number one hit song.

Bill Clinton is currently the President of the United States, and the movie The Mask is at the top of the Box Office. In the United Kingdom, John Major is the current Prime Minister. Meanwhile, in technology news, a relatively new storage format called the CD is beginning to outpace the regular cassette tape in music sales. The disc-based format gives listeners the ability to skip between songs instead of having to manually rewind and forward.

A new form of communication called "text messaging" is continuing to grow in popularity. However, it can only be done if both the sender and the receiver are on the same cell network. Meanwhile, a global system called "the Internet" is also starting to take off. Each day, more and more people are learning how to send emails and browse "websites" on the World Wide Web by connecting their IBM computers to noisy dial-up modems. In fashion, "grunge" clothing has declined in popularity and women are beginning to wear form-fitting outfits such as slip dresses and pencil skirts. Movies such as Clueless and The Craft have popularized the "sexy school girl" look.

It's 1994, so radio stations are being dominated by the likes of All-4-One, Boyz II Men, R. Kelly, Céline Dion, Bruce Springsteen, Bryan Adams, Meat Loaf, Bon Jovi, Wet Wet Wet, Rednex and Mariah Carey. In Europe, a war is continuing to rage on in Bosnia and Herzegovina. If you were to travel back to this day, notable figures such as Raul Julia, Richey Edwards, Eazy E and Selena would all be still alive.

On TV, people are watching popular shows such as "Matlock", "Seinfeld", "Beavis and Butt-Head" and "The X-Files". Meanwhile, gamers are playing titles such as "Mortal Kombat II", "Jungle Strike", "RoboCop Versus The Terminator" and "Star Wars: TIE Fighter". Children and teenagers are currently watching television shows such as "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles", "Mr. Bean", "Art Attack" and "Sister, Sister".

If you're a kid or a teenager, then you're probably playing with toys such as Screwball Scramble, the Sega Genesis / Mega Drive, Polly Pocket and Pogs / Milkcaps.
