It has been four years since I posted an image that led to my claim to internet fame...But nobody aside from my family and friends, knows it is me. That, is my hula hoop picture that accidentally pranked everyone.

Way back when I tried to get into hula hooping, I wanted to make my own hoop. My friend Kassie was one of the few local people I knew who liked to hula hoop. So we hung out, went to Home Depot and then build my hoop and practiced.

At that time I was addicted to Tumblr and decided to post my new hula hoop to show the world, plus my hooping community on Tumblr. Well they saw the hoop. But everyone else who wasn't aware was fooled into thinking that my red hula hoop was trying to show something circled.

This is my original post.

I was getting hundreds of notifications and I was actually annoyed. I wanted to show my hoop, not make the internet explode.

Many of you might know the YouTuber Tyler Oakley....Well, he is the reason why so many more people know of this image...he's the one who really got this thing popular.

SO months flew by until one of my hooping friends sent me a link of somebody making a meme of my hula hoop on 9gag (I'm not sure if this is the original post...again it was four years ago)....that turned into a post on Reddit which it became the top rated post on the funny section, it made it to Pintrest, Imgur and many celebrity facebook pages sharing it including Tommy Chong, George Takei and new to the list...Zooey Deschanel on the four-year anniversary of this post, funny enough.

If I had a dollar for everyone who has shared this image, I am pretty sure I would be one of the wealthiest people.

I am not even joking when I say that the first time one of my ex boyfriends saw my room for the first time, they said "Woah, I'm in the internet!"

This was never intentional, ever. I just wanted to show off my hula hoop to my friends. Instead I pranked the internet and I will never live this down.
