Honestly, I’ve never gave much though to this question but whilst writing this blog, I came to some realizations. I, like everyone else, is active on social media, mine being Instagram. I have a second account, known as a spam account, where I ditch all the pretty stuff and nice images for something more authentic …

Me dia
I may be very different from the others when comes to the reason of why I love media. This is because media is where I can conceal and hide from the reality – I have different accounts along with various virtual identities, profile pictures, personal information, and shared moments. I can act however I want …
Why I Love My Media
If this question had been asked a couple months ago, I probably wouldn’t have had any concrete answer to it. My media was invisible to me (as we discussed during this course), and I didn’t quite understand how much I depended on it. Before coming to Amsterdam, I had the battery on my phone changed. …
why i heart my media?
Since we are all aware of media’s ubiquity, we are left with no choice but to accept that fact and live with them, ergo either love or hate them. I, although not so wise yet, came to the realisation – why shall I burden my heart with hate when love is such a better feeling. …
My Media Journey
“Media is ubiquitous” Idk Mark Deuze probably Media, it is simultaneously everywhere and nowhere. On top of that, we are ‘becoming one’ with our media.

I can’t lie and say it wasn’t my choice, but after all who’s choice was it? My notion of time has disappeared, …
My Media: I have won but at what cost?
I am grateful that I can communicate with my friends and family through my device even when we live countries and continents away. With a click (or more of a press) of a button I can ask my mom for her pasta recipe; or talk to my best friend about the latest gossip. I love …
My Love for Love Island
As much as I hate to admit it, I love Love Island. There’s not a show out there that’s made me feel such a range of emotions – The Bachelor, Love Island USA, Too Hot To Handle – none of them compare to the British train wreck I hold so close to my heart. With …
My Media
What are my emotions towards media? To be honest I wouldn’t even be able to describe them. I grew up in a world with media. How would I know what it is like without? I only love media when I am in a healthy relationship with it. Being able to set my mind free from …
“Why I Heart My Media”
The only thing that comes to me while I’m repeating this over and over in my mind is how indecisive I am about loving it. I’ve been dancing since I was a child, and being observed, videotaped, and published has never been unfamiliar to me. My parents made me feel proud by complimenting the number …
