Hi, my name is...

On August 8, 1992 I entered the world in a New York City hospital and was given the name Sheala Garcia by my mother and great grandmother. My childhood in New York was short lived as we moved to the Poconos when I was entering the 7th grade. I am currently a Kutztown University junior majoring in Communications with a minor in Public Relations. With a B.A in Communication Studies I hope to enter the advertising field and pursue something I can extend my knowledge in communications to. While life has it's ups and downs always remain with your head up high because people are dying to see you fall.

I have been a part of the social media world ever since Myspace and it has it's pros and cons. I always wondered if things would be any different had I not joined the social media trend, like if I would be any closer to my friends because I wouldn't have the means to be in tune with their current happenings or if I would be any more productive in a day because I wasn't checking Facebook, That's one of the big cons is being so in tune with these social media accounts that one tends to forget about the real world and also how time consuming they can be. I enjoyed this post because I've never really knew someone to not have been drawn into the social media world, just about everyone I have come across now uses some sort of media outlet.It's refreshing to know that the media hasn't taken over every single mind in the world.

  1. Hi, Sheala. My name is Morgan and I'm in another class section in Mass Communication. I wanted to first point out that I love your background; it really does make your blog look more personal. I also wanted to mention that I really liked how you first started off your blog, sort of as if you were telling a story, a story of your life. I thought that was really interesting and unique. In the second section of your blog, you brought up some really great ideas about social media. I too, have been on social media since Myspace and I dedicated a lot of time on those websites, a little too much time I must admit. I really enjoyed reading your blog and your thoughts about the subject matter. The only thing that I would suggest changing would be some minor grammatical errors, such as comma placements. Other than that, I really enjoyed it!
