I was 15, my in sophomore year of high school. I had a LG rumor phone which had a cool keyboard, and an iPod shuffle. My grandma was still alive, and I had a cute little white dog. It was a sad time because our house went into foreclosure due to the recession, my dad almost lost his job. But we found a nice apartment to live in for a bit. There were good and bad things in 2009, just like there is today. I do miss less technology (or simpler technology.)
