Who do you think you are?

I am Me, G-Na Casazza, 20 years old, at my third year here at Hunter, and am putting up one hell of a fight to make something of myself in this harsh and cruel world. There is nobody like me. We may share the same interests, soccer, softball, football, film, television, reading, the beach, traveling. We may share some of the same personality qualities, hard-working, determined, aggressive, kind-hearted, strong. But I am who I am because of the choices I have made, and as of right now I like who I am, even though I am still changing everyday and my story is still being written.

As of right now the Media is a huge part of me today. Not only am I affected by what is in the Media, but I am trying to help shape it. Today I am working with MADD Long Island and the Media to show teens, and adults the harm of drunk driving and how serious of an issue it is to everyone. The Media is like a brainwasher. You need to know who your target is and how to hit them, and when you do they remember your message and it sticks with them. People don't even realize how big a part television shows play in their life. It's so normal to sit and watch television without even thinking, yet commercials, their a brainwashing device. They want you to buy their message or product. Television shows are very captivating, that is why we come back every week for the new episodes. Theirs always a hidden message or life lesson in a show as well, and half of the time you don't even realize it, but they captivated you, negatively or positively, because lets not be naive, the media isn't always truthful. Yet it is all around us and as a film maker I am a big part of it.

Who am I? I am me and only I own me, and therefore, I can engineer me into any direction I choose. I hold the key to my own destiny. I am me, and I am very happy with who I am and where I am at this moment in my life.
