Hi everyone! My name is Rachel Greenspan and I was this week’s media curator. Although I have Instagram and Twitter accounts of my own, I use them only to keep myself up to date and see what other people are posting, I’ve never actually posted something myself. Given that, taking control of the class’s social media accounts this week was a new experience for me, but I definitely enjoyed it. While I normally don’t think about posting on social media when I’m out with my friends, it was fun to take pictures throughout my week and decide what I wanted to share with the class. I also liked sending out reminders on the classes twitter account because it forced me to be more on top of everything we were assigned this week.

Between spending the entire last weekend at ACL and having two tests this week, I spent most of my time at the library or in my room doing work. However, I tried to post about the more relaxing and fun parts of my week. Monday night I finished my work early and was able to go hangout at my friends’ apartment, where I posted a picture of the view overlooking the city. I also got to check out the new Cow Tipping Creamery that just opened which I was excited to share with the class. I also spent most of my week getting ready for the upcoming OU weekend. Getting a cooler and snacks, and getting ready and packing for the weekend definitely got a little stressful, but I’m ready to go and the Texas/OU game and weekend in Dallas will totally be worth it. It’s been a crazy week, smack in the middle of ACL and Texas/OU weekend, but it was a lot of fun, and a good break from studying, to post and share my experiences throughout the week with everyone.
