Happy?

Did you listen to Tarli's reflection? Amongst other things, she talked about happiness as a prime goal. That made me think of the Happy Song.  I went to a wedding recently and they played this song.  The bride and groom will always think of their wedding day when they hear that song ... I think a lot of MacRobians will remember that special day at the Athletics Sports in 2014 when they hear that song in the future.  People like Stephanie and Angelena made it happen and of course, Meutia produced this quality video.  Worth seeing again:

Janice sums it up!

I will always remember walking down the corridor in L2 and seeing Janice talking to herself! This happened many times.  She was, of course, rehearsing for a class presentation.  Did anyone even look twice or look concerned?  Of course not ... and that is one of the reasons MacRob is special.

Farah has a message for the group ...


Thank you to Farah for this video reflection:  an excellent communicator!


Double Trouble?

Check out this image.  Can you sense potential danger?


The stats say that between now and when you are about 25 is a dangerous time.  That danger usually involves cars which are usually driven by young men.  If you add alcohol to the equation, the danger increases exponentially.  Would you have the courage to say "stop the car and let me out" or "I do not want to get into that car" if you sensed danger?
