124) Social Media Attention

Yu Garden, Shanghai, China
I used to care about receiving "likes" on my Facebook and Instagram. (Perhaps, I have written a previous blog post similar to this. Oh, well. Social media is almost everywhere. I gotta talk about it.)

​The more I care about "likes," the more I am confident about myself. (That was me before.) I had the super hunger to post something online.

​Now, I try to be my true-self.

Currently, I am in China. I have taken many pictures over here. I am documenting my travel life on my Instagram. I am showing off to you my travel life. I admit it.

​I do not mainly focus about gaining followers or receiving likes anymore. I focus on you showing my life (almost like this blog).
Yuh, I still check on the number of likes. My notification is on. I see it. It is tempting. (That is normal. I cannot completely wipe it off my mind.)

Yuh, I filter my photos to make it look crispy (unless my good friend is around, I use her wonderful iPhone X camera). (No need to filter photo using an iPhone X.) I like my photos to look good, before I post them on social media. (Picture shown above.) I admit it.

Yuh, I enjoy posting pictures of myself with the views in the background. (Picture shown above.) I rather post a picture with me in it than only the views. I admit it.

Whenever I receive a few or no likes, I do not get upset on myself anymore.

First and and foremost, I am trying to not only show you the highlight reels of my life. I have my “downs” in life. (For instance, I have posted my meaningful blogs about my sister on my Instagram profile.) It is an up-and-down journey.

Welcome to my “new” insight in social media.
