I enjoy the soothing and melancholic voice of Leigh Nash, the lead singer for Sixpence None The Richer, a 90s band that seems to give me nostalgia for the past that I was not apart of.

When I have spare time, me and my cousins often play a game of Uno outside on a picnic blanket or just something to sit on.

I also like to delve into more alternative genres such as rock in the late 90s early 2000s, I listen to Nirvana, The Cranberries and Deftones.

I like going out as I can't stand being cooped up in my room just doing assignments all day, which is why every weekend, I go out and enjoy life while I still can, being young and free with no worries or obligations other than my own.

I get fries often after class because there's a potato corner stall just across the road and I get hungry when waiting for a jeep as I am the type of person to eat out with friends before going home and doing my Hurtado, sorry but I just can't stand eating lunch alone at home then doing assignments, I want to go out first, explore, "maglaag" before going home.

Another photo of me and my friends at a pool party, my lifestyle might not be ideal for others as I often spend too much and always try to have fun, However for me I like to enjoy the little things in life that you can't attain so easily, the experiences and memories.

A still life of a day in the beach, giving a retro 60s/70s vibe with the pink umbrellas.

I'm an extroverted, talkative, and outgoing person, which is why I chose HUMSS, also because I'm just really bad at doing mathematics.

I like winning prizes and playing in the many fun and entertaining games at the arcade.

My media consumption on TikTok mostly consists of satirical and sarcastically funny memes that aim to be relatable, For example: this video showing Sara Duterte's lookalike doing a TikTok dance as a joke of what her life is and what she's doing now after resigning; “Life after magresign??”

Here's another example, a news broadcast gone wrong and what I find really funny about these types of content is that they are taken lightheartedly and the least toxic comment sections often are from these sarcastic and satirical forms of media.

I really enjoy watching these types of videos especially the ones from Kurzgesagt as they do a fantastic way of educating you on a certain topic while also keeping it entertaining as it is animated and illustrated beautifully like a mini movie or cartoon, though I don’t take the knowledge I learn on YouTube by heart, I do keep them in mind.

1. Why do I like these media?

2. How are these media influencing or affecting me? (my lifestyle, aspirations, attitudes, behavior). Is this healthy? If yes, how come? If not, what steps should you take to change it?

I like these sorts of media as they provide a temporary escape from reality, especially music which give me a longing and nostalgia for a past that I was never a part of and was not even born yet, and the paintings as well portray a retro, bubbly, saturated and imaginative reality, also my TikTok feed, as it provides a good laugh which is something I really need especially after a long and tiring day at school and at home doing chores, I can enjoy and be entertained watching TikToks, Lastly, the educational content I watch give me something to dream about as some of these predict that humanity will terraform venus/mars, etc.

These media influence and affect me through my behavior and perception of society, and for me yes this is healthy in moderation, I am the type of person to analyze before believing straight away, I also tend to compare results coming from different perspectives, Furthermore, I am content with my media consumption and sure not everything is true/perfect, but no one is really meant to know everything, call me ignorant if you will, at least in my opinion, However, I still find the information taught in Media and Information Literacy very useful as it allows me to discern more clearly and carefully the different ploys and tactics that media creators try in order to influence and get my attention as I am now aware of the process of making media, I now know that it is a constructed reality and there will always be biases as it is human made.

I think everyone seems to enjoy pop music as the term pop originates from “popular” forms of music due to the beat/lyrics being catchy, here's a preview for Lovefool by The Cardigans, another 90s to early 2000s band.
