Talk:Colleen Feola

First Comment

Hey Colleen! Really loved the analysis you did of your introversion in real life versus your extroversion on Facebook. As an introvert myself, I can really relate to wanting to share more online rather than in person. I personally have always felt it easier and more free-flowing to hold conversations with people online rather than in person, regardless of whether or not I know the person in real life. I keep in contact with my friends mainly through Facebook messages, specifically in group chats--sending messages and funny memes every day. I found it interesting that the "real you" showed through more in your Facebook profile than it does in real life. Typically, you'd expect the opposite--you'd expect others to know you better if they know you in real life, rather than through your Facebook profile. But, because of your introversion, the more authentic Colleen actually can be seen more easily in your Facebook profile rather than in real life. I think that this is a unique and really neat way to tackle the identity analysis part of the prompt. Your writing style was good overall--I really liked your introduction paragraph, I thought it was funny and it interested me enough to keep reading the rest of your autobiography. One thing I would've been interested to hear about is if there were any parts of your non-online life that don't show through in your online profile. You discuss a lot of elements that are on your online profile that don't necessarily show in real life, but I would've been interested to hear about the opposite as well. Overall, really nice job! - Nicole
