What I...

“What I…”

The concept of “selfies” became a trend in 2013. Almost every day I pass by people taking a selfie whether it’s for instagram, snapchat, facebook, or twitter. People take selfies to show the world what they’re doing such as eating, sleeping, or doing homework. These are all reasons for someone to take a selfie, no matter how silly it may seem. I am guilty of falling into the selfie trend, especially when it comes to snapchat. My friends and I do not communicate through text throughout the day, instead we use snapchat to send each other selfies of what we’re doing. People are so caught up in social media and keeping up with what others are doing that no matter how pointless the selfie seems, it is looked at by the person’s followers and often given a like. Some people post selfies because when they receive likes and comments, it makes them feel good about themselves-it is a confident booster when you get a lot of likes. In the “What I Eat” photo project, many individuals are photographed with a variety of food from all around the world. The reason for this could be to show others what they’re eating, or even for themselves to keep track of what they’re eating. It is interesting to see different people’s lifestyles and what food they choose to eat depending on their schedule, where they live, and what they like.
