Dehydration can kill your bird quickly, so always make sure there's water in her cage. Instead of buying a standard bird seed, look for a seed mix that is designed specifically for parakeets. These often contain dried fruit and other nutrition your bird needs, such as calcium -- low blood calcium can cause sudden death. Give her some small pieces of fresh, raw fruits and vegetables to help round out her diet. Don't leave fruit in her cage all the time, though.
Every bird is different in make up and of course their diet and external environment plays a huge part in how long they live. But I would say your parakeet lived out it's average life span. The lifespan of Parakeets is 8-10 years. You must have given given him a wonderful life to have made it that far. I have heard that accidents take more lives than the average lifespan of a parrot and many never make it to 6 years old due to accidental death.
