Ideas Focus Unit 8

• Is social media a big part of your life?

I spend one or two hours every day on social media, most of the time
talking to people or just chatting with people. I also look at some reels
on Instagram when I get bored, but I would say that social media is
not a big part of my life, I could live without it but I prefer not to, I don’t
understand the people that say that having social media is a bad
thing, I mean you get to meet new people, you can use it to talk to
other people without having their phone number, etc. Of Couse,
having social media is important because that is how you talk to
people besides the normal message app on the phone, but no, it is
not a big part of my life.

• Are you influenced by what you see online?

I am for the most part not influenced by what I see online. I personally
think that if you know where to search and you select what you want
to see online, you could learn a lot of useful things. There are a lot of
people that show off their expensive lifestyle, but most of them just
want other people to think that they are having a good life and having
fun, but all they do is post things just for people to think that they have
a specific lifestyle which they do not have.
 • Who are your favorite bloggers?

I don’t have favorite bloggers. I don’t watch TV very much, so I don’t

have favorite bloggers.

• What’s your feature in your school magazine? If your school

hasn’t got a magazine, would you want to be involved in
setting one up?

My school does not have a magazine. I am not sure, but from what I
know, my school does not have a magazine. Also, if they would try
setting one up, I would not want to be involved in helping. In our
school, there are a lot of great teachers, but also there are a lot of
teachers that don’t really care about us and just do their job to get
paid, and for those teachers I don’t have respect at all. What I am
trying to say is that a lot of the teachers don’t care about us and don’t
put any work into trying to teach us anything, so I would not like to try
helping or getting involved in helping the school with stuff like a
magazine.

• Would you like to be a journalist or a news presenter?

I wouldn’t like being a journalist or a news presenter at all because I

want to work something that I like doing and this is for sure not it, I
just would not see myself working those jobs.
