As a man was passing the elephants, he suddenly stopped, confused by the fact that these huge creatures were being held by only a small rope tied to their front leg. No chains, no cages. It was obvious that the elephants could, at anytime, break away from their bonds but for some reason, they did not.
He saw a trainer nearby and asked why these animals just stood there and made no attempt to get away. “Well,” trainer said, “when they are very young and much smaller we use the same size rope to tie them and, at that age, it’s enough to hold them. As they grow up, they are conditioned to believe they cannot break away. They believe the rope can still hold them, so they never try to break free.”
The man was amazed. These animals could at any time break free from their bonds but because they believed they couldn’t, they were stuck right where they were.
Like the elephants, how many of us go through life hanging onto a belief that we cannot do something, simply because we failed at it once before?
Failure is part of learning; we should never give up the struggle in life.

Good morning, my name is Natasya Nareswari and I am running for student council president here at SMA 3 Bandung.
I have been a student here for two years and during that time I’ve made some really great friends, not only with the students, but the staff as well. When I look back I can’t even imagine going to any other school besides Midland. I tell everyone I know about SMA 3 and the opportunities it has given me.
Before I came to SMA 3 I had very few friends, was very shy and really struggling in school. But SMA 3 changed all that. I now play sports, join clubs, sing in a choir and go to school dances. Everyone and everything about SMA 3 has helped make me the person I am today.
Midland not only showed me how to have and make friends, but also how to survive in the real world. I currently go out into the community two days a week to learn about jobs and how to work when I leave SMA 3. SMA 3 teachers taught me how to interact with adults, students and co-workers. I have learned day-to-day living experiences such as making my bed, doing laundry and cooking.
As student council president I’m not sure how much I could, or would even want to, change about SMA 3 as it is already such a great place to come to. I can really only think of little things such as having parents come and watch more of our events and sports that we all participate in. We could also have a couple extra hot lunches throughout the year.
If I am selected student council president I want to be the same type of person that everyone has been to me. I want students to know they can come to me with suggestions and I will listen to them and try to make a difference. Thank you and I look forward to your votes.

On the holidays Zoe and I, along with my family, spent 3 days in Yogyakarta. We travelled by train overnight and arrived at 3.30am, Zoe and I were so tired that we couldnt wait to get to the hotel. Our hotel, The Pyrenees, was very luxurious and conveniently situated right beside Jalan Malioboro, so we were able to shop every evening along the street and buy many gifts for friends and family. Unfortunately, Jalan Malioboro is very busy all the time and each store sells similar products to the stores surrounding them so we didnt have a lot of choice in terms of souvenirs.
We hired a driver to take us from place to place and each morning we woke up early to visit various tourist attractions such as Candi Borobudur, Candi Prambanan, Kraton, Gunung Kaliurang and Parang Tritis. We enjoyed Yogyakarta specialties like gudeg, pecel and susu Kaliurang. The weather in Yogyakarta is very hot and we often carried an umbrella to sheild us from the sun so that we didn't burn. I didn't enjoy the hot weather there and always felt so much better when we came back to our hotel room which was nice and air conditioned.
I think that Yogyakarta is a great city, however personally I prefer Bandung for its cool weather and great shopping. Also, there are more options for food and it seems to taste better here from my experience. With that in mind, I still believe Yogyakarta is a fantastic holiday destination and would love to return in the future to visit the places that we didn't have time to see whilst there these holidays.
