Year 2010 !!

My Year in Status - 2010 is a hit among Facebook users these days. Has to be... who does not like to flip the pages of the book called 'Memories'? I do not usually give in to these applications on Facebook but this particular app had caught my attention since the very first time I saw it. After trying to ignore it for quite some time, I finally tried it myself. Here is the collage of my Facebook status messages for the year 2010... one of the most eventful year of my life!!

This collage drove me crazy and I went to the extent of going all the way back to my first Facebook Activity and this is what I found.

First Five Facebook Friends

1. Pulkit Anand
2. Anushri Arora
3. Sanket Sinha
4. Ritika Anurag
5. Noopur Johri

I went on to track all my status messages and believe me... it was fun!!  Give it a try if you have time on your hands. Interestingly, I joined Facebook in October' 2007 and my first status update is dated for February 12, 2009. I have had 80+ updates since then. Here they are-
