Take me back to July 19, 2013

Let's take a walk down memory lane.

The date is July 19, 2013, and it's a Friday. Babies who are born today will have the star sign Cancer. Many people have "that Friday feeling" and are looking forward to the weekend.

The summer of 2013 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 "Blurred Lines" by Robin Thicke is at the top of the singles charts, while "Wake Me Up" by Avicii is the number-one song in the UK. Barack Obama is the President of the United States, and the movie The Conjuring is at the top of the box office.

David Cameron is the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. On television, people are watching popular shows such as "16 and Pregnant", "Big Fat Gypsy Weddings", "The Walking Dead", and "Black Mirror". 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 2013, so the music charts are being dominated by artists such as Macklemore, Robin Thicke, Imagine Dragons and Bruno Mars. A social networking website called Vine is extremely popular at the moment. Former NSA contractor Edward Snowden has just revealed to the public that American intelligence agencies have been running a widespread global surveillance programme called PRISM.

In Florida, George Zimmerman has been found not guilty of the murder of Trayvon Martin. People are saddened by the news that Glee actor Cory Monteith has died following a drug overdose. If you were to travel back to this day, notable figures such as Gia Allemand, Lisa Robin Kelly, Lee Thompson Young, and Paul Walker would all still be alive.

People are playing video games such as "Grand Theft Auto IV", "DmC: Devil May Cry", "Aliens: Colonial Marines", and "Tomb Raider". Children and teenagers are watching television shows such as "Peppa Pig", "LazyTown", "Johnny Test", and "Big Time Rush". Children are playing with toys such as Air Hogs Hawk Eye, My Own Leaptop, Lazer Stunt Chaser, and Rainbow Loom.
