    Television
    As a 2 yrs. old, the Television wasn't a medium to gather information and such but more of a fascination of seeing moving things inside a box. But as a teenager and a young adult, the television has become a source of information, news and update on what is happening and/or trending in the country as well as around the world.

    Paper and Pen
    The first type of media I used was paper and pen or crayon. This was when I started to draw and scribble random things as entertainment when I was a kid. But as a young adult, it has been a way to store information, a way to communicate with other people and a way to be creative. (Image Source : https://goo.gl/e9GaXp )

    I was introduced to films when I was 4 yrs. old. The first film I watched was Ice Age and it was magical and awesome. (Not really that important but I just wanted to add it.) (Image Source: https://goo.gl/BEH7T2 )

    I discovered about magazines and newspapers when I was in grade school mostly because our teachers were asking for us to use it for our projects, assignments and sometimes as donations.

  • Internet

    Internet
    I discovered the Internet when I was 7. I wasn't allowed to use the internet back then but I used to see my older relatives use it for playing games, searching for information, and communicating. Now the Internet has also become an essential part of my life as well as most of the world. We now use it for everything. We use it to communicate, to gather information, to spread information, to buy things, to store things and etc. (Image Source : https://goo.gl/7rTP55 )
  • Social Media

    Social Media
    I was first introduced to Friendster, then Facebook so on and so forth. What piqued my interest in joining these medias were the games. Friendster had Boomz and Facebook had Pet Society. But later, I learned I can communicate with it, learn what with my friends and family and other news. Though Friendster is gone, Facebook still serves the same purpose but with upgraded and added features. (Image Source : https://goo.gl/u8SgoF )

    I started reading books and novels for leisure when I was 10 yrs. old. It was an activity I did for leisure and as well as to explore new worlds that I didn't know existed. (Image Source : https://.goo.gl/AUmie8 )
  • E-Books

    E-Books
    Loving to read books is great and all but after reading many books I started to realize it was really costing my parents and it was taking too much space. After discovering Wattpad, I started to search online and found about Ebooks. Ebooks are much cheaper, takes up less 'space' and still able to serve the same purpose as printed books.
    (PS. Printed Books are still awesome though.) (Image Source : https://goo.gl/KkS1kq )
