Journal 3 Peer Prompt​: If you could live in any century, when would it be and why?

I have always wanted to live in a time period before the twenty-first century. The twentieth century or the 1900's has always fascinated me, especially because of the music and fashion choices. More recently, I have been interested in music of multiple genres from the 1970's, 1980's, and 1990's. Also, to me, shows and movies from the twentieth century are more interesting to watch. Recently, my favorite movies have been the Breakfast Club. This is a classic movie from this time period. Also, I have been into shows like F.R.I.E.N.D.S. and Full House.

Also, I have always wanted to know of a time where there was no such thing as social media. This is a major influence in our lives as a society. The decade of 1990 is the time period I would like to be a high schooler in. Without social media, there isn't as much peer pressure. Platforms like Instagram, Snapchat and Twitter are ways to connect with the rest of the world using pictures, words and hashtags. This growth of connection between people of all walks of life brings awareness to social issues and conflicts in our world today. Although, there is good to having social media, teens today feel more pressure from their screens. There is constant pressure to look and act a certain way. This pressure coming from school and social media can be a lot for somebody my age. This is why I would prefer to live in the 1990's, or sometime in the twentieth century.
