At the end of my day of observing my exposure to media I was not surprised at all with what I found. Like every other day my life and the majority of what I do and what I see is based on the media. Unlike many however, I don’t think its a bad thing, I think that basing your clothes in the morning according to what you think will look good for that time and listening to certain music as you take the bus to the mall where you see hundreds of ads and brands everywhere is an exciting and interesting thing. Yes it’s overwhelming to some but to others they embrace it and love what the world has become, a more exciting, interesting place to live in than when everything was monotone and boring. There is action, events and fascinating things all around us and everyone is unique and different even if they try and fit in and even if they think otherwise. Even on a daily basis it can be overwhelming but its not always bad, you just need to know what to let in and what to ignore. We have to realize that media may be all over the place with slogans, commercials, billboards etc. and when you let a bit in its okay and can be very remarkable and inspiring. Personally I have to make sure it doesn’t consume me because I can very easily get caught up in it and forget about other great things in life. I do simple things like make sure that I watch my favorite shows and keep updated on the weather and important events in the news, and its not difficult to do either because its absolutely everywhere and I’m okay with that but I also have to sit back not get lost in it all.
