STUDENT - TRAVELER - GLOBAL CITIZEN
About Me
|
Thank you for taking the time to read about my senior project! I have worked countless hours to get where I am today. Since September, I have been developing my research paper, putting together my action and creating this website to give you a glimpse of the passion I have towards this topic.
My research question, "How has Americanization affected the youth culture of the Philippines through social media?", truly resonated with me because of my background and travel experience. In January 2018, I had the opportunity to travel to Olongapo City, which sparked the inspiration for this project. I noticed a lot of similarities between the American and Filipino culture which made me question the long-term impacts of American occupation in the early 1900s. With the rise of social media and more technology, the world is constantly changing and adapting to new influences. As you learn about my topic, I hope you enjoy it just as much as I do! |
Youth culture now really looks back and embraces the past, but keeps it contemporary but not sticking to one particular style."
