Social media platforms are filled with a plethora of “selfies.” People can see their friends’ daily lives through Facebook and Snapchat. “The term “status update” has taken on a more literal translation as 47% of consumers feel they are best defined by their social media presence” (Markelz). There is a pressure of needing to be perfect, due to the fact a person’s life is available to look at any time or day with the use of social…

“Johnny, you have to come upstairs to see my room!” Daniel shouted, with a smile spread across his face. Daniel was nine years old and had started playing community sports once he turned five. He played four seasons a year – soccer, basketball, lacrosse, and baseball – and received a participation trophy at the end of each season. That meant there were almost twenty trophies in his room! Not to mention the extra few he had snuck out of his brothers’! Johnny bounded up the stairs, as fast as…

about it yourself, you didn’t hear about Netflix because of a paid ad, did you? It was most likely from a friend or family member. With Netflix always being subject to media discussions, it is no secret that their target population is the millennial generation, or people aged…
