From an early age music played a key part in shaping who I am, specifically sprouting from my parents taste. The first song I engaged with the most being 'SongBird" by Oasis, a song that as a baby I would dance to the most. It was released in 2002 the same year that apple began streaming Itunes after creating it in 2001.

From a younge age I had an interest in film and photography always wanting to be taking pictures or posing for the camera. This led to owning my own 'VTECH' kids camera in 2004. I was able to record videos and take snapshots of my life at this time.

The first television programme that followed a non-fictional documentry style. Come outside was a television programme I watched from the ages of 3 and up. The main narrator would travel around the uk with her dog 'Pippin' and present facts about an impotant location or monument in a child friendly manner.

In 2006 the DS lite was launched, being my first ever form of computer technology that I owned by myself. It was my first experience with computer games and interecting with company LOGO's. I began recoginisng adverts for games as well as slogans and jingles such as 'EA sports' and 'Mario Bro's'.

The first television show that I became obsessed with. The Tv channel CBBC ,was home to the majority of television programs that I would watch for entertainment after school. Many of the programmes formed my personality when I was young, changing my humour, style and opinions on society as I followed the fictional stories passionately.

During the time period of 2005-2008 I was given a reburbished Ipod Nano. This was my first experience of  streaming music systems. Itunes was on my parents computer and music would have to be downloaded , taking a whole day to install. I remember listening to 'Girls Aloud' and 'Snow patrol' on repeat as they were the easiest to find on the the ipod.

At home and school Horrible Histories was a key source of educational media. Even though it was a fictional programme, it demonstrated a variety of media. For example, onscreen journalism, documentries, music videos and newsround style scenes.

My first experience of online gaming and globally communicating. Advertisements and merchandise were also shown to me through the period of being a fan of 'Moshi monsters' . I remember being able to find my friends on the game and message them, beginning my introduction to social media.

Disney channel programmes such as 'Hannah Montanna' and 'Wizards of Waverly Place' were on repetitively as a child, introducing me directly to American culture and the Arts industry. Both programmes would feature the idea of jounalists and the 'press' as well as examples of phones, computers and other technology that was displayed in the current media of the time.

My most memorable advertisment from when I was younger was the 'Lelly kelly' fashion shoes. I never owned a pair but the jingle and advertisement video was attatched to every kids tv show I would watch or kids radio station, therefore being engraved in my mind.

Any supermarket trip as a child would be boring and feel like a chore. However,  the huge magazine aisle would hold my fascination. The most frequently bought choice would be "We Love Pop' if I got lucky. The magazine would have numerous content of celebrity gossip, music charts  and would be filled with articles from the latest 'X-factor' stars. This magazine specfically influenced many of my fashion choices during 2010-2012 as well as encouraging me to listen to certain popular songs in the charts.

From 2012 a routine of watching vloggers and lifestyle videos began to be a weekly routine for my pre-teen self. Instead of just watching music videos on youtube I started relgioulsy following certain influencers. This led me to create a youtube account and subscribe to hundereds of differnt vloggers. I then became more exposed to adverstisments and sponsered videos showing me a wider range of media.

Instagram was one of the first social media apps that I used and created a profile with. After I got my my parent's old Iphone 3G I downloaded the app and would use it to post pictures. I would take random images from the internet or post my own photos. Looking in comparison, I now use the app as a portfolio documenting my memories and photgraphy. Instagram is now home to many influencers and lifestyle tips much like Youtube used to be.

The important yearly round up of pop culture and any big stories covered by the press and other news resources. At the end of every year I always watch the 'The Big Fat Quiz of the Year' as a tradition. If I manage to miss it, clips are also shown on Youtube yearly representing the huge coverage the programme has across the media.

How I learned the term 'Binge watching' and became part of the trend. Netflix has now become my main source of television series, documentries and films which I frequently use daily as a source of entertainment. Before Netflix we had the local DVD rental shop where we would choose a film every friday and take it home for the weekend.

If I'm not catching up on the latest news on my phone or 'BBC's Newsround', I'll watch 'Mock the Week' finding the mix of factual content and satire entertaining enough to remember the weekly media round up. If im not watching it on the TV I'll find clips on 'Facebook' or 'Youtube' being advertised to me weekly.

In the past year Podcasts have become popular in my weeekly routine, either being a relaxing sleeping mechanism or a daily walk enetrtainment source. Instead of listening to the radio I'll find myself either listing to a comedy podcast such as 'Babblememt' or a more casual conversationalist pocast.
