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

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?"

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!
