The Ultimate Importance of Media and Information Literacy

As a social media influencer it is of great importance that I possess an extensive knowledge regarding media and information literacy. Media and information literacy plays a major role in the lives of the people today. This is mainly because of the wide range that it covers when it comes to the aspects of our daily lives. It is important as it serves like a guide maybe even a rule book that we media users must use in order to achieve the responsible use of media. We need to be literate in a way that we know the following:

1. Avoid using foul language

The use of foul language also known as profanity is not only bad for your image but it also manages to hurt the feelings of other people. it has wide variety of negative effects on the people on the receiving end.

2.Respect fellow media users

Respect goes a long way and we as media users must respect each other as we all belong to the same community and with the technology today proper communication has never been easier.

3. Do not become a cyber bully

Bullying other people online just for the sake of your ego will never make you a better person. it only means that you are a coward using the internet just to do something that you are scared to do personally.

4.Be sensitive to the outlooks and beliefs of others

All the media users have different outlooks and belief and it is important for us to be sensitive with what we post as this may offend and even disrespect them. It is our responsibility to practice care when it comes to what we post.

5. Filter and revise your posts before actually posting them

Sure the posts may be funny or hilarious to you but it may be hurtful to others. Just like the words that leave our mouth we must be careful with what we post. This is mainly because of the fact that once we post something it is out there for the whole world to see.

Supernatural; The Road So Far

Supernatural is a fantasy series created by Eric Kripke. It first aired on the summer of September 13, 2005. As of today it has a total of 14 seasons with 296 episodes. It continues to be one the the longest running series on televisions and is showing no signs of ending anytime soon.

The whole plot of the series revolves around the story of two brothers who are in search of their father who went missing during a hunting trip. Keep in mind though that this is not just an ordinary hunting trip. No, this hunting trip is not about hunting mere animals for fun, this hunting trip is so much more. Here let us go through some of these so called creatures that are being hunted.

CHANGELINGS

These type of monsters originate form European folklore. A child is stolen form their parents and replaced with a similar looking one. the only way to see its true form is through its reflection wherein you will see that it has hollowed eyes and a rounded mouth full of razor sharp teeth.

ANGELS

Angels are tasked with helping God maintain peace and order in heaven. But their powers are beyond measure. A stray angel is capable of so much destruction. The angel blades that are in their hands can kill humans, demons and even their fellow angels.

DJINN

 These creatures are more commonly known as genies. They have the power to grant all your wishes. In the series however, the djinns use deceit people into wishing for various things. The twist? They lure the people in a coma like state and feed on them until their death.

RUGARU

These creatures are normal human beings until they hit the age of 30 wherein they are overcome by this uncontrollable hungry. This causes them to eat anything and everything including their loved ones. The only way to kill them is to stab them with a silver dagger dipped in lamb's blood.

THE SCARECROW

This scarecrow is way more different than you would lead yourself to believe. It lures people from the road and leads them to their final demise. The only way to overpower this creature is to burn the tree that supposedly gives it life.








The disappearance of their father has led the two brothers towards a chase that will inevitably turn their whole world upside down. As the search for their father continues to dwindle, they go on hunting and killing monsters that are of great danger to humans and even the world . They surpass all the obstacles that the monsters cause along the way.

Despite all the hardships that they have to go through every single day, they still choose to risk their lives in order to make sure that no one else is hurt or even killed by the creatures who we share this world with.

Personally my favorite character in the show is Dean Winchester who is portrayed by Jensen Ackles.
I relate because of how he handles and reacts to certain situations. His carefree attitude is quite similar to mine.

His love for pie is absolutely relatable as who does not love pie?

And his expression that one time a dead body fell out of a cupboard?

PRICELESS!

If there was anything that I would change about the plot it would be the sudden disappearance of their father. This is because I would also want to see how they would get along with one another. Their hunting trips would have been a lot more different than one would expect.
