A social-media addict

     

      I’m a college student who every day always use social media. Updating statues in twitter or facebook become my habit. It feels like my fingers are machine and already set up to update status in social networks every time.  

As a college student, I got many benefits from social media. Social media helps me connect to new million people around the world and see their photos. Moreover I can share many things with other people.

     No matter wherever and whenever, I always connect in social networks to update status. Even in lunch time, I don’t care with everything around me include my friends because I’m only give much attention for my iphone. All of my friends get angry with me because I don’t not only  listen to them but also give opinion to them.    

Day by day I realize that my friends are away from me but I still don’t care about it.

A few months later, my lecture gave a task group which each group have to find member itself. I didn’t have a group and no one of my friends to encourage me to the group.  I was upset.

From that situation I knew that I must change.

   The first thing I should do is if I met my friends at campus in the morning, I should have greeted them. I do it consistently.

    The second thing is reduce activity in social networks for five minutes when I’m alone. But when my friends are around me, I tried to not open it except in a danger situation.

    The third is my friends and I do some activities together after class so I can join them again.

  

From those things above that I did it, my social life is getting better and I can play with all of my friends again.  

The conclusion is I learn more about dynamic social which human can’t live alone. There are true friends that more precious than just social networks. In the future, I will connect in social network based on as needed.
