Random Ramblings: Social Media

If you know me, you'd know that I'm not able to live without my social media. Obviously the iPhone is a big part of my life, but then, I also can't live without the other stuffs, like Twitter, Facebook, Foursquare and many many more other social media sites, but most of all, my Twitter. I tweet like crazy and there's nothing anyone can do to stop me (so to speak!), as I believe in the freedom of speech. As long as I don't spread malicious rumors about anyone, I don't see how "voicing" what I feel is wrong.

I was completely a-okay with my little joys of tweeting and facebook-ing and checking-in on-the-go. And honestly, I wasn't hurting anyone in terms of "revealing descriptive malicious/fake information". But when someone tweets/blogs/facebooks about people like me who are into social media and asking questions like "why you people like to be on facebook, etc?", first of all, ask yourself. After all, you did ask the question on FACEBOOK/BLOG/TWITTER right? Doesn't that then, make you a person suitable to answer that question?

I honestly am uncertain if those posts/tweets were meant for me, per say, but I am still super offended! Basically, what this person is "saying", is that, it is wrong for us to socialize via these media platforms. Do correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe that I spend relatively enough time OUTSIDE my social media circle but I also maintain my social media life. If you think that you're not spending enough time with the people you want to outside your social media cycle, don't lump all of us in one group and then blame your bad choices on people like me who didn't even bother to question your behavior toward people!

More importantly, my joy of critisizing hypocrites. WHY in the world would you ask these questions (ie. how social media is affecting our lives) USING SOCIAL MEDIA platforms? Like dude! Is that ridiculous or what? You're saying how bad social media is, and yet, YOU ARE USING social media! Like WHY? Why would you ridicule yourself in such a way? I honestly dislike hypocrites, but sometimes, you guys are just too funny! Even if you wanna be hypocrites, don't be so silly and let me catch you la! :P

Thing is, I am very into what I do, what I've been doing, and will continue to do. I'm not going to stop just because you have "opinions" and I'm not going to apologize for what I have been doing and in my use of social media tools. Call me whatever you want, but I believe that as long as I don't judge you, you don't have a right to judge me too.
