Take me back to February 10, 2010

Let's take a stroll down memory lane.

It is Wednesday, February 10, 2010. Anyone born today will have the star sign Aquarius. It is "Hump Day", so many are beginning to think about the weekend ahead.

Valentine's Day is just around the corner. In America, the song "Tik Tok" by Kesha is at the top of the singles charts, while "Fireflies" by Owl City is the number-one song in the UK. Barack Obama is the President of the United States, and the movie Dear John is at the top of the box office.

Gordon Brown is the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. Video rental stores such as Blockbuster are continuing to close their doors at the moment. Sadly, it seems as though they will be unable to compete with online streaming services such as Netflix and Hulu. It's 2010, so the music charts are being dominated by artists such as Kesha, Katy Perry, Rihanna, Eminem and Bruno Mars.

Relief efforts following last month's catastrophic earthquake in Haiti are still ongoing. An Old Spice advertisement called "The Man Your Man Could Smell Like", starring Isaiah Mustafa, is extremely popular at the moment.

The New Orleans Saints have won the Super Bowl after beating the Indianapolis Colts 31-17 at the Sun Life Stadium in Miami Gardens, Florida. Internet users are repeating the slang phrase, "Come at me, bro." If you were to travel back to this day, notable figures such as Corey Haim, Chris Kanyon, Paul Gray, and Gary Coleman would all still be alive.

On TV, people are watching popular shows such as "24", "Cold Case", "The Big Bang Theory", and "Community".
