Progressive Technology

It started with this old Mickey Mouse game I played when I was little that was played on a 5" floppy disk

As new computers were introduced to the house, my games list progressed to the Sims, Scooby Doo,

Battlefield 1942, many Winnie the Pooh and Reader Rabbit educational games, a Tortoise and the Hare game, and Zuma Deluxe.

After moving past the slow methods of dial up connection and into a wireless router, I played many online games from websites like Disney, Nickelodeon, Shockwave, and Addicting Games.

I got a Game Boy Advance when I was around 8 years old for Christmas one year from my uncle. Frogger, PacMan, Horse Stable, Rescue Heroes Fire Rescue, Harry Potter, Pirates of the Caribbean, Tak and the Power of JuJu, and many other games that I can't remember anymore.

My first radio was one that was powered by size D batteries and had two cassette players on it. It was small, and I don't know what happened to it now.

I had this CD player that would light up as it played music up until the reader in it broke. Then I got a 6 disk CD changer player with huge speakers.

Classic little handheld games like checkers, Yahtzee! and connect four, along with a virtual golf game in the shape of a driver, and a fishing game. My dad also got my little brother and me a plug in of classic arcade games that hooked up to the TV while we had to use the joystick to move.

In 2007, Cordell and I got a Wii for Christmas with Shrek the Third for the extra game (it came with Wii Sports). Over the years we got games like Link's Crossbow Training, Deer hunting, Cabela's hunting, Lego Harry Potter (1-4 and 5-7) Lego Indiana Jones, Lego Lord of the Rings, Lego Batman, Kung Fu Panda, Rise of the Guardians, Super Mario Bros, Mario Kart Wii, and so many other games.

My first phone was an Alltell Banter, followed by a dumb phone ( I can't even remember what it was) and then an LG slider phone. Now I have an iPhone 5.

I have a Toshiba Satellite laptop with touch screen compatibility, and a Fujitsu. I have used a Kindle Fire.

So much has changed through my life, and it continues to change.
