Social Media: The New Future

https://www.facebook.com/BirkenstockUS Social Media is such a huge part of today’s society. We see almost everyone on it, and typically use it to stay in contact with people or for our own personal shopping. We know that technology is a large part of our lives, whether it be for personal uses or for work. We are constantly on it and always seeing how it is changing.  It has been identified that a lot of the younger generation is using it, especially to replace having to go out shopping.

This was a challenge for me to begin with because I was working two jobs, while going to school full time, and trying to make time for friends and family. As I started getting more into it, I realized that the best times for me to go were either early in the morning or later at night. Now that I am working full time and still attending school, I notice that I do best making time in the morning. I like to get up early, before work and go for a walk and do some at home workouts. I have not found a good time to get myself to the gym yet, but I am slowly working on figuring out the best schedule for me. People tend to get tired at work, especially me, but I know that working out wakes me up, makes me ...
