Social Media

Social media has entered an all-time high since I have entered college.  I am constantly meeting new friends and trying to follow them on Twitter or become friends with them on Facebook.  Social media has been nice to me and has not caused troubles, but others are not always so lucky.  Some people are torn apart by social media and that really bothers me.  It bothers me that Twitter and Facebook have become a way for people to make fun of others and hide behind a keyboard when saying hurtful things.  I am a fan of direct conversation between two people where all things are in the open.  Then if they need to fight it out they can and if they need to hug it out then they can do that too.  Fighting isn't always a bad thing, but that is a whole new subject and I am not getting started with that yet.  In the end, college has the ability to take social media to a whole new level, I just hope its for the better and not for the worse.
