| 0:08.0 | First. |
| 0:09.0 | First. And it's so it's not a total change, but it would be a shift from what I normally do so everyone |
| 0:15.0 | calls me Cassie that's been my nickname since I was a kid but my full name is |
| 0:18.5 | Cassandra and I really love that name and I always have and then it occurred to me recently I'm like why |
