For some of us, graduation is close
approaching and many of us are asking ourselves: Who do we want to be? What is
next? What is the REAL world going to be like? While these are all normal
thoughts, some of us may want to consider what our Facebook accounts say about
ourselves… and if this “identity” we created is appropriate for the next
chapter in our lives.
While it might have made you seem “cool” in school, all
those pictures of you partying and intoxicated may not translate into giving
you a real job. It is time for a clean up people! Essentially
it is time to use tools provided by social media platforms to reinvent
yourself, yet again. However, this time around turn that “cool” drunk
university kid into a young professional – don’t forget to make it believable
by posting about all the right topics and engage with all the right people. Only
problem is, when you step into real life and you no longer have a screen to hide
behind, people realize the person you are online does not translate to real
life - Uh Oh…
WAIT! Have no fear,
just apply to work for an online start up company, this way you can continue to
avoid real human interaction. Realistically, who needs face-to-face
communication these days anyways – everything is online, right?
Good luck to everyone, 'twas a blast!
