The Brainstorming and search:

The hardest part about creating a meme for me is thinking of the text for the picture.

I started by thinking of possible meme scenario, as a student, something that I can relate to.

I was first thinking how before in school students would sleep and pass notes during class to fight boredom but now it has changed to playing on their phones, texting, and/or playing with their  laptops if permitted.

Before starting anything, I needed to find out how to insert text into a picture, so I googled, “how to insert text for a meme” and found http://wigflip.com/roflbot/.  After, I searched for pictures by  googling “student classroom sleeping,” “student texting,” “student studying classroom,” and other combination of words to find the image closest to the one I imagined.

I found the “reality” one inspiring and decided to do the reality and expectation meme.

I then remembered the “expectation” one and thought they would work well together.

Then I found that there is probably a step that is missing,

which is the fact that what we see at times can be far from reality.

I was thinking about what to name “what we see” to fit into reality vs expection,

came up with 20/20 vision.

The Mechanics:

The website http://wigflip.com/roflbot/ allows me to either enter the url of the image or upload my own image:

Then you can insert text onto the image that allows you to move it around and change the size and type of font

I inserted the three pictures of along with the text and downloaded it on my laptop.

Then I went onto my blog and and started inserting the image using the icon in the top right corner and

sourced each image by adding the url in the caption.
