Greetings, everyone!

Welcome to my MEdia Collage, made by yours truly. If you're wondering who am I, continue scrolling and suit yourselves.

This is Christine Danielle Salazar. 17 years of age. Currently at my 11th Grade of Senior High School. Ever since I was in elementary, I found myself being involve in a media society. I grew up having a high level of media consumption. Watching movies and being updated on social media became my habit before, and until now.

One interesting fact about me is that I'm an impulsive buyer. I usually spent my time scrolling on online shopping apps, and tell myself "I need a reward. I deserve this" In the end, in one snap, my money flew away from my wallet.

Additionally, I love mystery/thriller genre of movies. I'm a fan of those. I also watch romance series whenever I feel single and wants to feel butterflies in my stomach.

I believe in this inspiring quote, "Dream big, and make it happen"

“Media is uncontrollable, but manageable.” Media is an incredible platform for everyone. It provides 3 things that an individual can enjoy: Entertainment, Information, Interaction. This media collage is representing the things I went throughout the whole media platform. It drove me into a way of peace and amusement where I can see myself being relaxed and focusing on squeezing my emotions into every movie I watched, social media applications that I went through, and interacting with so many people around my circle. Additionally, with a combination of harmony and meaning, music serves as my comfort zone through my ups and downs.

The opportunity of creating a media collage is a highly privilege activity for myself. As per today, I finally got a chance to reflect and realize the cycle of my media consumption in a typical day of life. Sometimes, there are moments that I went all throughout my social media applications simultaneously as I was bored and got nothing to do. Thus, I found this extremely unhealthy and unproductive lifestyle which I won’t tolerate further. It has a large impact towards my mental, emotional, physical health, and personality. I barely got the stand up as my eyes were fixated on gadgets. As a result, I’m having difficulties at sleeping comfortably at night. Due to these insufferable habits, I finally put time management into life. Creating a weekly schedule is efficient to those people who are being obsessed with social media, like me. Nowadays, the lessen of my media consumption rate became a result of time management in my everyday life.

As a digital citizen, understanding the pros and cons of media is a must. Media brought significant changes into our lives in terms of how information is being disseminated, freedom to voice out our opinions and perspectives, and the ability to interact with people behind the screens. Overall, media influences a big portion of our society, and we need to preserve this digital generation for an advanced and pioneering world.
