Hello everyone. People like to have selfie or groupie. Selfie is when you take a picture of your own in your camera while groupie is when you are a group. I am not into selfie but this one is in the picture is my son. It was his first selfie using my smart phone. Last Sunday I saw an Asian foreigner enjoying taking a selfie in this hotel. But since she cannot take a good shot, she asked some help from the staff there. But the funny thing is she likes that when the staff took her picture she would see herself in the camera and I think that is quite hard for the one taking the picture. Are you into selfie or groupie?

I guess both. I like taking pictures. Taking a selfie lets you see yourself and from there, you can choose your best sides or angles. Being in a groufie can also be fun. Taking a picture is nice but posting too much of them in social media sometimes gets into other people's nerves.

I am not just a camera person. That is why until now I do not know what is my good side or good angle.

@rakski My tip is, practice makes perfect. Oh no! haha I think I am giving myself away...I know it sounds vain, but of course we always like to look good in front of the camera.

I am not a selfie person. There was a program on Sunday by children and they asked me to pause with them for a selfie.

I'm not into selfie, I see it as another form of vanity. It's good for the most people though.

@rakski Selfies are ugly, all selfies show a big nose and "bunny" teeth.

Nope and neither is my son. You won't ever see him making a selfie at all and he hates it whenever I try to have a selfie with him. And he would always warn me of not posting it on any social media sites. The only time he would allow his photo to be taken and be posted on the social media sites is during a family gathering.
