118 and Counting

I started my twitter because my friend made me. She was and still is one of those twitter users who's figured it out and tweets often. She wanted me to get a twitter just so she "could tweet at me". She also created twitters for two of our other friends. Neither of them use it. I decided to try.

I got my twitter around the same time that I joined a sorority. I started out only following people in my sorority so that I could get to know them through their tweets and interact with them. I also followed my other friends here at Lehigh. My friends from back home don't have a twitter, they find that tumblr and Facebook are enough social media for them. 

Then, through recommendations for people to follow on twitter, I followed various Lehigh parody accounts and a couple of "Total sorority move"accounts. I also followed some celebrities. Ellen Degeneres was the first I followed. I also follow her on Stamped. I also followed Wanda Sykes and Taylor Swift. Ellen is the only one who tweets often.

Now, thanks to this class, I follow Lehigh Valley with Love and some news sources. I'm working on the rest of the lists recommended for the class.

I still mostly only follow my friends, and most of my tweets are still just interactions between the girl who made me make my twitter and I.
