So in English class we had to read a short story called “A Mountains Journey”, it’s a beautifully written story and it’s very detailed when it comes to writing out scenes or settings. One thing I like about it is that some of the metaphors and similes are pretty funny when you think about it, I’ll give you some examples..

Metaphor- “But the rivers, levelled with the ice and snow, were the winter highways of the mountains.” -(pg.93-94)

Simile- “That tree, like a strong lonely woman..” -(Pg.92)

Personification- “The wind blew before him..” -(Pg.92)

The other Metaphor- “..His body was no more than the shape of agony and effort crawling through the twilight” -(Pg.95)

Let’s start this with a story.

Okay, I may have made this story a little more exaggerated, but you know what I mean. Anyone who uses social media leaves a digital footprint and a digital footprint is basically anything on the internet related to you as a person on both good and bad stuff. Now a digital footprint is pretty important because it can affect your future.
For example, like in the story, I’ve presented, you can get fired from your job or you can just never get employed if your digital footprint is offensive. Like if you insulted  a company that you want to be hired by.
To avoid this you can keep in mind that mature, important and smart people will in the future look at your digital footprint. You can imagine all your family members looking at it, or you can imagine a whole elementary school looking at it. The point is, it has to be appropriate and safe.
A digital footprint is something people will use if they want to hire you so beware of what you do on social media so to other people, just be careful, you don’t want to get fired from a job just because of something you posted 5 years ago.
