Durham in 100 years

Mia and Anna were born almost 19 years ago, they're twins. Their mom died when they were 6. As they were going through her stuff, they found a little notebook with a lot of stories in it from 2014. It was now 2114. Mia was searching through the book and reading the stories and she found this specific one which said;
My name's Megan. I'm 15 years old and I know I'm gonna die within 100 years.
I really want to know what the future of Durham is like in 100 years though. I want to
have two lovely children and live in a two-story house so I can slide down the stairs like I did as 
a kid. I want to be happily wed to a wonderful husband and I want to own my own business.
If any one's reading this in 2014, how's Durham? What's it like?
A tear strolled down Anna's face knowing that if their mom only lived 13 more years, she would've seen what Durham was like after those 100 years. Anna looked at Mia who was trying to fight the tears, "I think we should write a 'letter' back to mom and put it on top of this page in her journal," so they did. When Mia and Anna were done, the letter said:
Dear mom, the future is...okay. Definitely a lot different than 100 years ago. Everything
is pretty much technology, and the national anthem is now Gas Pedal and the national
dance is now twerking, which is pretty stupid and gross. The I phone 97 just came out yesterday
and it's thin as paper and as long as a size 6 shoe!! But I'm still here with the I phone 60 
because the newer phones are stupid and just glitch to much. 
No one exercises anymore except a few people. Most of the people fly around on little
hover crafts but we decided to stick with walking. It's not all that great here in Durham 
for us... People only rely on technology and even stores stopped selling paper and note 
books so it was kinda hard to find the sheet of paper we're writing this letter on..Anyways, 
hope you're having fun with grandpa, grandpa, and dad, we love you!
Mia and Anna folded the note once and stuck it into the notebook. Guess Durham isn't all that great in 100 years. I mean look at it now! Anna put the notebook where they found it and it was now dinner time. "Well I guess Durham can't be that bad, Twitter got deleted so that drama is gone. TMZ got banned so the rumors have died off. I guess I'm pretty happy about TV too... dumb shows like Uncle Grandpa and Phineas and Ferb got cancelled and kids are actually starting to act better in school," Anna announced. Mia shook her head agreeing to what I said with her face stuffed with food.
