I was meaning to do this for a while, but I wanted to see how cringe-worthy some of my Facebook posts were, back when I was a bit younger. It's the end of 2014, and I am going to share some of the oddest Facebook statuses I have made from 2009-2011, and give my reaction to those statuses. Some of these statuses expose how stupid I was when I made them, but now I can look at them now and just laugh. So, let me take you on this journey on the Facebook statuses I have made over the years.
Nothing's changed from when I wrote this status way back in New Years Day 2009. In fact, this was my very first Facebook status I have ever made. I had Facebook as early as 2007, but that time, all I was doing was uploading pictures, I had to make a strong first impression wit my first Facebook status, and I think I did that. I drew inspiration from this specific song, and to this day, I'm still cold as ice.
Goodness me, this was the first of many cringe-worthy Facebook statuses I've made. I'm not sure if I was trying to woo a girl, or just trying to show a softer side of myself. Still, even now, I think it's a pretty cool quote. and I got it from an episode of The Real Football Factories International. Back then, I was heavily into supporting Toronto FC and I thought the "Ultras" culture was the coolest thing in the world.
Sex, I clearly meant sex. Nice to see back in first-year university where my priorities actually were.
Again, priorities. I do remember her, and she was a very cute, petite woman, with luscious blonde hair. All I wanted to do was hug her, hold her, and squeeze her. I have no idea what she's doing now, but the last time I heard of her, she was in a sorority with a female friend I knew. Myself and my female friend had some good times together, if you catch my drift.
Why did I quote Kanye West? I'm still baffled as to why I would even do that for a Facebook status.
Yes. Yes it is. A rare instance of "Words of Wisdom" from the 2009 version of myself.
This Facebook status is a lie. Throughout my university career, all I wanted were the cheap thrills! Well, I'm older now, and I really don't want the cheap thrills anymore. Nah, that's a lie too.
Um. Moving on...
When I'm not quoting Kanye West, I'm quoting Nas. If you couldn't tell, I was a pretty big hip-hop buff.
One thing has remained constant, and that is my utter disappointment of the England National Team. This specific Facebook status came from England's exit from the 2010 World Cup against Germany.
Truer words have never been spoken. I've been thinking about making a cameo appearance next year as well.
I'll explain this story in a future blog post.
Using social media while you're drunk is never a good idea. As you can see, I was guilty of that. I would like to think that your phone can detect if you've been drinking or not, so that your phone can disable all social media functions. Also, I forgot who "the crew" actually was.
Ah, the standard "Follow Me On Twitter" Facebook status. Of course, I had people ask me why, and I offered this brilliant explanation:
Between then and now, I've definitely had my slice of the Twitter pie, and I'm not stopping anytime soon.
Also, follow me on Twitter, if you haven't done so already.
Isn't that the worst? Of course it is...
Well, there you have it, those are my reactions to some of the weirdest Facebook statuses I have made. I may do the same for tweets as well, so look out for that too. Apologies for not posting on the blog for a while, I've been quite busy, but I'm hoping to write some more in 2015. Hope you enjoyed this post, and have a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
