Why I heart my media

Screenshot_20171003-181405

What is undeniable about media is that it broadens our horizons. That doesn’t mean it always does so in a positive way. However, it is up to us taking advantage of all the possibilities that media provides.

That is what I ultimately love about my media, it allows me to have bigger goals. Centuries ago, one could only dream about being just as those from the closer environment. Our networked society, on the other hand, has enable me to be writing this as an international student at the UvA, to find a place to live in Amsterdam from my home country, to travel to other places on Earth (sometimes physically, sometimes virtually) and to aspire to become a good journalist one day. It makes it easier for me to love him and my friends, even though they are miles away. Media makes me part of a world that has no borders or limits.

What else can we ask for?
