When I google my name the first three things that come up are my Youtube account, which has all my science projects from highschool on it, my Instagram account, and my twitter account. My Instagram account is private so anyone that opens this page will not be able to see my pictures unless I have accepted their follow request. My twitter account, which would be deleted if I could remember my password, is also private and has not been posted on in about three years. I am not very present on the social medias that I have. I am usually the type of person that will open Facebook or Instagram and scroll through for about a minute and then leave without posting anything.

I used to regularly go through and delete all of my old posts on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter. Looking back, this was a good and a bad thing. It was a good thing because all of those embarrassing posts from fifth grade are now gone and cannot be brought back to haunt me. But, this is also a bad thing because I deleted many of the pictures that I had from when I was younger on my Facebook and now these pictures cannot be retrieved again. At the time, I had deleted this posts because I thought they were weird and embarrassing, but sometimes I wish that I had kept them. Many times some of my best friends will social media stalk themselves and find old pictures and posts from many years ago that are embarrassing, but these posts will make them laugh and remember and make fun of their younger self. While I did save myself from the embarrassment of having these old posts resurface, I also lost the chance to relive some of my old memories.
