Group each set of h3 and p elements using an element that describes self-contained pieces of content?

Im hitting a wall.

Articles, because it can be it's own thing, don't know what word to use really to describe it but the h3's and p's not the h3 that say's follow on social media. Hope it helps :) and hope i'm right I don't want to look like a fool haha. Good luck.

The <article> tag specifies independent, self-contained content.

An article should make sense on its own and it should be possible to distribute it independently from the rest of the site. You can use article elements for forum posts, blog posts, news stories and comments.

So this should work: 

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
    <link href="styles.css" rel="stylesheet">
    <title>My Blog</title>
</head>
<body>
    <header>
        <h1>My Web Design &amp; Development Blog!</h1>
        <nav>
            <ul>
                <li><a href="#">About</a></li>
                <li><a href="#">Articles</a></li>
                <li><a href="#">Recent Work</a></li>
            </ul>
        </nav>
    </header>

    <h2>The Main Articles</h2>
        <article>
            <h3>My Favorite HTML Courses</h3>
            <p>Fusce semper id ipsum sed scelerisque. Etiam nec elementum massa. Pellentesque tristique ex ac ipsum hendrerit, eget <a href="#">feugiat ante faucibus</a>.</p>
        </article>
        <article>
            <h3>10 Handy CSS Features</h3>
            <p>Pellentesque habitant morbi tristique senectus et netus et malesuada fames ac turpis egestas. Vestibulum ante ipsum primis in faucibus orci luctus et <a href="#">ultrices posuere</a>.</p>
        </article>

            <h3>Follow Me on Social Media:</h3>
            <ul>
                <li><a href="#">Twitter</a></li>
                <li><a href="#">Facebook</a></li>
                <li><a href="#">LinkedIn</a></li>
            </ul>
