Yet somehow, Facebook is the only one that survived.

Young women enjoy CamWow, nostalgic app from the 2000s

If you were anything like me, you had an iPod touch somewhere between the years of 2009-2012. The apps we had on our iPod back then were vastly different from the ones we have now. Here are some nostalgic apps that you likely had in the 2000's,

1. CamWow

Snapchat was definitely not the first app to institute photo apps that allowed for silly filters.

2. Temple Run

2000s app Temple Run

The most nerve-wracking thing about Temple Run was when you'd trip and the gorillas would catch up to you for a few seconds.

3. Kik

Little did we know this would birth the "You got kik?" meme.

4. Keek

2000s app Keek

Keek was for short videos that many youtubers would use.

5. Omegle

Nostalgic app Omegle

Although this isn't necessarily an app (and if it is that's sad) where you could videochat with online strangers, and for some reason was always on the to-do list at sleepovers.

6. Talking Tom

2000s app Talking Tom

Nothing was scarier than bonding with Tom for a few months just for a rumor to surface that Tom was recording you the whole time.

7. Ghost Detector

Back in the day, people would do Bloody Mary in the bathroom to get spooked. In our sleepover days, we had our device to detect ghosts to spook us.

8. Vine

2000s app Vine

Is it mean to hope that kids today get Tik Tok taken away from them so they can feel what we felt when Vine no longer existed?

9. Dog Whistles

It was also funny (or pure boredom) playing a frequency so high you can hear it but not your parents.

10. Draw Something

2000s app Draw Something

For those who us who aren't good artists, this game was an automatic loss for us.

I wonder if in 10 years we will look back and think "Ha! Who used Twitter besides Donald Trump?"

It is that time of year again. Christmastime. It is one of my favorite seasons for a myriad of reasons. Here are just a few reasons why I love Christmas. This list is in no order of importance.

1. The Christmas decorations

I am that person who will decorate directly after Thanksgiving is over. This year, my roommates and I put the tree up in our apartment before we even left for Thanksgiving break. It is a great stress reliever for me to just sit in my living room and work on the huge amount of work I have before the semester is over.

Mistakes are something we all make, no matter how old we get. Most of the time, the mistakes we made are little and sometimes due to something out of our control. Yet, there are mistakes that are bigger than others. Personally, I have mistakes that I wish I could go back and undo. Here they are:

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?
