How to Put the 10 Pieces of a Selfie Story for an Anti-Selfie Rebuttal for Teen Girls
There is no simple answer to what makes a good life because each life makes a unique confirmation for each of us within our circumstances. However, as an older person I have the privilege of looking back at my time line and breathing a sigh of satisfaction and relief. My young brain was never assaulted by a social media circus.

FB was bad but is Meta-Worse?
Humans are complex and human interactions are even more complex. Our ability to communicate effectively has been a game-changer in our evolution and is what sets us apart from other species. This trait, however, has changed rapidly in the past few decades. The internet and its offspring in the form of social media platforms have facilitated a different kind of connection, at least in the initial days of adoption. I remember the early 2010s when I would come back from school and hop on to Facebook only to chat with my school friends again - even those who stayed next door. To be fair, it also helped me connect with distant relatives and random friends whom I met at the summer camp and wouldn’t have been able to connect with otherwise. Cut to 2022, where I need to take regular ‘detox’ breaks from these platforms to stay sane - times have clearly changed, communication has clearly evolved.

Influence in Action
Today’s influencers epitomize a sea of change. They are, in a sense, our present role models – both good and bad. With the last two years being even more reliant on technology as we distanced ourselves from face-to-face relationships, this trend is even truer.

Learning the next Language
Not a lot of people love learning a language. When most people are teenagers, a lot of them don't want to even confront something that isn't their home language, at least not in America and not in my experience. In my previous attempts at learning languages, I had learned French and Spanish via the free mobile app called DuoLingo. Although it was useful for learning basic reading skills and pronunciation with the two previously mentioned languages, I found speaking Chinese hard because I didn't have a way to record myself on the app, so I couldn't know how I was doing with reading unless I recorded myself on my phone's original voice app. I didn't have enough space to do this, so I just suffered through it until I discovered WeChat through a friend named Arvin.
