FOCUS: AUTHORING & PUBLISHING A PHOTO ON INSTAGRAM
This morning I uploaded and published a photograph on my second Instagram account to share with my followers. I have two Instagram accounts which serve different purposes. The first is my private account where I post personal pictures designed to be shared with my friends and family. The other is an account I set up at the end of last year which focusses on sourcing vintage images, a personal interest of mine, to share with the public. I enjoy the freedom of having a second account to not have to worry or feel embarrassed about what I post as my name is not revealed. I can also post several times a day without being judged by people close to me which is a satisfying feeling. It’s been a while since I’ve used this account so when I saw a glamorous monochrome still shot of Brigitte Bardot in her prime, I felt it was my duty to share it with the followers!
FOCUS: AUTHORING A PROFILE ON NEED A NANNY
My friend recommended for me to create a profile on the website ‘Need A Nanny’ to seek work in the field by young families in my suburb. I wrote a summary about myself and published it on the website with a photo and my availabilities in hope to find some work. By creating and publishing this short self advertisement online, I am responsible for dealing with any interested parents via phone or email. This is a great way for young people like myself to reach out to young families seeking a part-time Nanny.
podcast FOCUS: LISTENING TO A PODCAST
This year I have become obsessed with listening to Podcasts on a daily basis whilst I walk to work. My favourite Podcast lately has been Mia Freedman’s Mamamia Outloud. I usually download a episode the night before to make sure I can walk to work, listening to it without the reliance of internet connection. I enjoy listening to this Podcast as it covers issues about women that I relate to and is a great alternative to listening to music whilst walking. This morning’s episode discussed topics including marriage equality, Trump and London’s terrorist attack. By listening to this Podcast I was an active participant consuming the information being provided.
