Although the internet is a huge place and full of millions of people, I believe that social media makes the internet world even smaller. I have four social media accounts including Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and Snapchat. I tend to only use Instagram and Snapchat because they are visual and full of interesting and exciting photos. I love to hear about other people’s stories and I believe that every photo is supported by a story. When it pertains to my social media accounts, I tend to be very selective on the photos I post because each and every post represents me and the type of person I am. I typically only share photos that are significant to my life, such as a graduation or birthday photo. Although my social media presence is very significant, it represents me and my personality very well.
While many people are concerned about the amount of followers they have, but I am more concerned about the type of people watching my life through social media. I set my account on private, so I get to pick exactly who follows me. The majority of my followers are people I have met throughout my life weather they be close friends or just acquaintances and the other portion of my followers are family members from my giant family. When my followers scroll through their newsfeed and come across one of my photos, I think they are shocked to see that I finally posted something, but then they are excited to see that I am happy or enjoying myself. I try to keep my social media platforms very positive in order to help my followers have a positive connection to my profile.
