There’s been a lot of talk about shutting down or banning TikTok in a few countries. Love or hate, believe the conspiracies or not, there’s just something fun about the app!
Like so many people around my age, I was against to start with!!!! I claimed that I would never do videos… ever! Then, (like everyone on TikTok) I got hooked! I started watching funny videos, then found myself making them. And guess what… It was really fun!
I stopped a while back, because I got really busy and didn’t have the time, but it was actually pretty enjoyable to be silly and film myself miming to classic move and tv quotes.

Pros:
- It’s a fun way to connect with all kinds of people
- You can express yourself and your weirdness
- I got to see what other people were up to
- You can mime to your fav songs or quotes (I’m partial to the quotes)
- I get a chance to create my own content too (not just the quote fest!)
- You can show your personality in another way/avenue
Cons:
- Sometimes, you don’t reach many people (unless you have millions of followers…)
- It can be pretty time consuming
- Some “trends” (the popular videos for you TikTok newbies) suck – they just aren’t fun
- It can be hard to be found by the audience you want in the beginning
- The content cant be played on any other format (like Youtube) due to copyright issues
Like it or loathe it, TikTok is going to be here for a while. When I get a bit more time on my hands, who knows? Maybe I’ll start doing them again!
