Observing the Ordinary

First of all, social media is so intertwined with our lives, it is impossible to argue that it isn't a good outlet for storytelling. Social media affects our day to day lives. With Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Instagram and so on, you can literally know someones daily routine down to the minute. Ordinary activities become something people feel the need to share with the world. Social media glorifies ordinary actions. Most of us wouldn't think twice about some of the stuff others feel so inclined to share with all of their friends or followers.

I think of Facebook statuses. I have friends who literally post their entire lives through them. Like seriously. They post about what they ate for breakfast, how many hours they worked that day, about how tired they are, how many steps it took them to walk to their car... really? I guess some people really do like observing the ordinary. And social media is a great way to do that.


ODE TO WHITE CHOCOLATE REESES

If I only ate these for the rest of my life I would be a happy woman.
There is something about this circle of heaven that makes me melt
Let me tell you, the people at Reeses know what they are doin
Because when i bite into one it's like something I've never really felt.
The creamy white chocolate with a succulent inside filled with peanut butter
Hits me instantly with euphoric bliss
The taste explodes in my mouth and leaves me with a shutter
And once it is gone i instantly miss
Now you may think that i'm overstating or stretching the truth
But really this is the best thing you will ever eat
Dont even think about comparing it to a snickers or baby ruth
If you dare to say another is better, you I will beat.
