This post, is nothing too fancy, but since I have not posted in a while, I want to share a very few awesome moments of social media, it can help you get close to people that may be from school or finally getting attention that you always wanted. Well...I remember how it use to be so simple, not worrying about having to post pictures and how many comments it gets on that picture, "likes" as well. The time where all of us teens as kids didn't even have a phone in our hands until this very day. Now, all of us now, are just trying to get attention now, on Instagram, Snap chat, or any other like Twitter. I have noticed, many people really must feel very special when they get up to a hundred "likes" on a picture and they act like they are celebrities and it stresses them out. Girls will probably be like "Oh my gosh, I have to make sure I look like that!" or the fact they're really trying their a hundred percent effort to get a picture right, do I that sometimes? Yes, not going to lie but, to those girls or guys that take it to far just to please their "fans." No need to...bother, when you are literally famous to five percent of our population and those people that follow you on social media from school, don't really count, they see you everyday, it isn't a competition to see who has best looks. Majority of them, just really get anxieties, feeling confidence at first then they start thinking about "What if I don't look good enough?" or "What if my picture doesn't get a lot of "likes?" Or comments?" So does it? Or does it not give people anxieties? It is just my way of putting it.

I feel social media is an amazing invention. However, most people take it too seriously. I understand how many young people feel it brings negativity because of the supposed popularity contests, but in reality, people bully for attention. Try not to let the hate get to you Transcend! Social media is a platform all people should positively tread on.
