Confused Tweeter - Influx of Followers
Read only if you care to follow my ramblings.
I feel like Mary. Suddenly I have a whole flock of followers on Twitter.
I started tweeting about health issues I'm interested in and suddenly I had a followers from the medical field. Then I started P90X and started tweeting about that, and I attracted a whole new set of followers.
Ironically, I don't feel that these two topics define me. I don't feel like I'm being followed for being me, but for talking about something that interests (in some cases, consumes) others.
But then, I'm no celebrity, so there's no reason for people to follow me for being just me.
It's just strange to see people pay attention to me for things I don't consider the biggest components of my life.
Well, that might sound strange. I'm a Doctor-in-training, so of course I should be interested in all things health related. But I'm tweeting about these issues more for the sake of spreading legitimate information and awareness, than because I'm super-passionate about each topic. Not to say I'm not passionate about certain causes and issues, but I guess it's more from a humanitarian/philanthropic angle. I'm confusing myself, and no doubt you.
What really amuses me is the guys now following me because I've tweeted about P90X. These are guys who are hard core into the program - I'm talking they turned into trainers after doing the program themselves, and this is their career path kind of hard core. Why are they following me? Are they expecting some hot chic who's a work-out buff? I'm far from that image. In fact, once I shed the inches and unhealthy pounds, I'm done with P90X .. I'll keep up with some exercise to keep in shape of course, but this is not my life's passion. So why are they following me?
