My Facebook Status: Past, present and future



Just got a simple email from Facebook saying that its been seven years that I joined the social networking site. 7 is also the number of years I have been married. Anyhow, I decided to look into my facebook history and came upon something very interesting. A timeline of my facebook statuses. It made for such an interesting read that I decided to share them and also predict some of my statuses for times to come.
I have picked the top 3 statuses of each year to share and also written one top status update for the next 7 years.

Sept 2007: ....at home( Would you believe it? I actually made that status update)
Oct 2007: ....is very happy today. Mohit and Rupal have bought their first joint possession. Their Honda Civic Car. (Clap, Clap) People actually congratulated. Thanks, guys
Dec 2007: ....is totally hooked on to poker...(Story of my life, even one of the earlier statuses from my FB TL depics what has transpored in the past 7 years)...ufff

Mar 2008: ...is back from relaxing Langkawi to stressful Delhi(always ready to beat my travel trumpet)
May 2008: ....wants the good weather to stay(good weather in May, you must have lost it woman)
Aug 2008:....is wishing at least one of her friends calls instead of SMS on F-day.(something I still wish)

Apr 2009: ...is in IPL Mode( Once upon a time I was fond of cricket)
July 2009: ...is happy for her two bestest friends. Both with kiddies today. (And the kiddie brigade had arrived big time in our lives)
Sept 2009:...thinks Mohit is the best( And believes it firmly till date)

Apr 2010:...is there a way to husband lock the sports channels? (believe it or not, I know how to now)
May 2010:...A little birdie told me June is the month for baby showers( I dropped hints and finally even asked for one, but for nothing)
Oct 2010: Navya Bansal, the one that completes us(Not the official birth announcement of our first one, but def her name announcement)

May 2011:...My daughters Mothers day gift: 8 hours sleep( And the sleep woes continue till date)
July 2011:...times they are a changing. Rupal to 2 year old niece: What do you want for your bday? Savera: an iPad /massi.(the gadget boom is here to stay)
August 2011: Height of Annaism, Mohit wants to name daighter navya Anna Bansal(Seriously heights, he loved Anna then and hates Kejriwal now)


Feb 2012: is in blissland...Mommydum( how these Ludhiana trips have dried up)
July 2012: will be unavailable on phone or BBM for next 10 days, pls FB me( in other words, I am going to phoren land...)
Dec 2013: Moving houses twice, decorating 4500 sq feet of space, kids first(and hopefully last) fracture, little bro growing up to marry, scares over husbands injury, dealing with a second pregnancy! sprinkled with lots of happy and bad news!!!! 2012 was supposed to leave us extinct. But we are still there; breathing, existing , living ! 2013 , you better be full of happier times, healthier living and peaceful existence....(truly summed up a hectic year)

April 2013: I tell him: the baby is kicking very less today. He answers barely moving his gaze from the tv: aaj Sunday hain, baby ki chutti hain...(second baby around  the corner and the parents are so much more relaxed)
May 2013: that rare time of the day when both girls are sleeping. (now 2 angels to watch over me)
June 2013: Mohit, aaj khush to bahut ho...wife leaves today, namo starts tomo( and this marked the entry of narendra modi into our lives)

Jan 2014: I will go on dharna if my TL isnt freed of AAP and /bjp updates( this political misery is here to stay)

And now some FB update predictions

July 2015: is playing the WSOP Main event...Vegas, you bitch
