Who Do I Consume With & Locations In Which I Consume
I consume media with all different people who are close to me. I listen to many hours worth of music everyday, I mainly consume this by myself as the genres of music I like don't necessarily match the genres of my friends and family. The locations in which I consume music is pretty much everywhere I go thanks to the fantastic invention of earphones, so whether I'm walking in the street, driving in a car or doing my homework you can pretty much guarantee I'm listening to music. Video games I mainly consume with my friends over the internet as we play online together game titles such as FIFA are really fun to play with friends as you have to compare your own skill with theirs and the winning of course claims the bragging rights. I also consume video games with members of my family such as my younger brother and cousins seem to like to challenge me on FIFA, but I only consume video games with family on rare occasions. I consume video games only in the luxury of my room or friends house as games consoles are not really portable and are best in just one sole location. TV is a form of media in which I do consume pretty much everyday but not very often in my living room as I prefer to watch TV in the comfort of my own room. I mainly football in my living room as I can sit down with my father and brother watch the game and usually have football related conversations whilst the game is going on. In my room I mainly watch TV series such as Breaking Bad, Prison Break and Game of Thrones, when I'm really into a series I watch them for hours everyday, however at the moment I have finished all the TV series I have mentioned and another series hasn't really caught my eye yet. Films I mainly consume by myself, family and with friends. If I'm watching a film it's probably by myself in my bedroom or downstairs in the living room with my family, I do sometimes watch films with friends but this is only really when we go to the cinema because when I'm with friends I would rather participate in other activities such as football than watch films. Social media I only consume by myself on my phone as everything i consume social media wise is tailored to me so i rarely share this form of media with anyone else.

A very sparse profile which would be far better if it included more complete sentences and developed responses. You give a basic (level 2) sense of yourself as a media consumer but there is hardly a clear idea of Liam Taylor the person. Look at this example for a better way to do it: http://scrmpics.blogspot.co.uk/2015/09/who-am-i.html
ReplyDeleteI've looked at the web address you suggested, and have made some further improvements especially in the "The media i consume is as followed section" and in the "Who Do I Consume With & Locations In Which I Consume" section.
