According to my lecturer, Mr. Hardip, the more dependent or reliable a person is on media, the more important the media plays in his or her life. This is called the Dependency Theory. Hmm.. Let's talk about the social media site, Facebook, the one that everyone owns.
Do you think that the picture above is true? If so, congratulations! You're certified as a Facebook addict like me. I can say that Facebook is the major reason why my iPhone's battery life can only stand for a few hours. I'm really dependent or reliable on Facebook because I love to keep myself updated with my friends' status updates, latest pictures and so on.
Sometimes, without Facebook I wouldn't have known about some popular current events which have just happened. Example, the song "Gangnam Style" by the popular korean singer, PSY. Everywhere in my newsfeed, I saw people shared that music video. At first, I really have no idea why is that song so famous? But now, it stucks in my head :O People even did parodies for it. OMG
Facebook becomes a place for people to share all sorts of things, even NEWS. School life keeps me busy but no matter how, Facebook is a MUST for me. I remember once, I told my mum the news about the poor little China girl being ignored while cars went over her. My mum was like "how did you know that? I'm glad that you actually read the newspapers", she knows that I'm too lazy to touch the newspapers and shocked when I first told her about the news. I told her "no lah, I know it from a video people shared on Facebook", she was speechless. *laugh*
P/S: I'm actually multi-tasking while writing this blogpost, yes, Facebook is the other task. Dependent much? :x
