Take me back to July 10, 2011

Let's take a stroll down memory lane.

It is Sunday, July 10, 2011. Anyone born today will have the star sign Cancer. People are currently enjoying their weekend. However, because it's a Sunday, some are dreading the days ahead.

The 4th of July celebrations in America have come and passed. The summer of 2011 is in full swing. The weather is warm, and the evenings are brighter than usual. Most schools and colleges are now finished until August or September. In America, the song "Rolling In The Deep" by Adele is at the top of the singles charts, while "Don't Wanna Go Home" by Jason Derulo is the number-one song in the UK.

Barack Obama is the President of the United States, and the movie Transformers 3 is at the top of the box office. David Cameron 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.

People are using pre-made comics called "Rage Comics" to share funny and relatable experiences. It's 2011, so the music charts are being dominated by artists such as Adele, Maroon 5, LMFAO, Katy Perry, Rihanna and Bruno Mars. Anti-government protests are taking place in cities across Syria.

A civil war is raging on in Libya. Large battles are taking place between Colonel Gaddafi's government forces and Libyan rebels, who are being supported by NATO. There is a strange new fad called "planking", which involves a person lying face down in an unusual location. A blackhat hacking group called "LulzSec" is receiving a lot of attention following a number of high-profile attacks on companies such as Sony.

An Advice Animal meme called "Good Guy Greg" is beginning to take off in popularity. Google have just launched their new social network "Google+" and people are wondering if it can challenge Facebook for the top spot. There is public outrage following the recent announcement that Casey Anthony has been found not guilty of murdering her 2-year-old daughter Caylee.

Former First Lady Betty Ford has passed away at the age of 93. In the United Kingdom, the controversial "News of the World" newspaper has just published its last issue. If you were to travel back to this day, notable figures such as Amy Winehouse, Zyzz, Steve Jobs, and Joe Frazier would all still be alive.

On TV, people are watching popular shows such as "CSI: Miami", "CSI: NY", "Skins", and "The Walking Dead". Meanwhile, gamers are playing titles such as "Super Meat Boy", "Total War: Shogun 2", "Duke Nukem Forever", and "Terraria". Kids and teenagers are watching TV shows such as "Postcards from Buster", "Curious George", "WordGirl", and "Glee".

Popular toys at the moment include Chixos Design, Bakugan 7-in-1 Maxus Dragonoid, Duck Hunter, and Liv Dolls.
