I try to be authentic online. I don’t post anything that doesn’t reflect the way I act in the outside world. I want all of my friends to think of me as a genuine person and I don’t want to portray a different kind of character online. I don’t like to keep my own secrets.

I am proud of my online presence because I feel I’ve used the internet to express myself and spread positivity instead of hatred. At this age, I tend to make sure not to post anything that contains sensitive information or that I know I could regret later on.

Although I’m not extremely active online, I do like to keep in touch with people I know. I use Snapchat, TikTok, and YouTube. I mainly use these apps to keep up with current topics and events and to socialize with my friends when I can’t see them in person. I also like to share snippets of my life that I want to remember. Some members of my family and my close friends have access to the things I post online.

I know that my future employers and teachers might want to check my online presence, which is fine by me. That’s why I don’t share sensitive content. Depending on the job, I might want my future employers to see all of the creativity I have expressed online. I might want them to look at all of the school projects I have published or the photos I’ve shared so they can get a sense of my skills. I might not want them to see my conversations with my friends. It’s not that I think they’re inappropriate, but sometimes my online presence is supposed to be something I share with my social circle.

I would describe my online presence as “smart” because I am very careful about what I post online. My family and friends might not agree because I know some people who share virtually every moment of their life online. I think it’s a waste of time. I use the internet for creative projects or socialization, not to show off.
