Why I’m on Medium
As a 15 Year Old
In the society we live in, it’s almost impossible to not use social media. But who said that it’s always a bad thing? I have decided to use social media in the most productive way possible, which is how I found Medium.
Here’s a little bit about me. I’m a freshman in highschool, I love all things robots (especially programming), am obsessed with making playlists on Spotify and I really enjoy reading and writing.
When I first found Medium, I thought it was a place for people to publish articles or blogs about important things that are going on around the world; kinda like a newsletter but it’s written by a bunch of different people with a bunch of different opinions. After scrolling for a bit, I found it to be really interesting. There were so many different topics with a variety of people addressing them in different ways. There were people asking advice, self help articles, and people just giving out life lessons that they have learned.
I was truly amazed. If there was anything that you wanted to read about, it’s on here. After reading a lot of articles, I wanted to be a part of it all. I wanted to write and I also wanted to be heard. So, here I am. Writing my first post. I really hope to gain some knowledge about topics I am interested in and I would like to use this as an outlet to share the information that I know as well.
I am going to try out Medium for a couple months and see how it goes. I will probably do a reflection on trying this so keep a look out for that!
