This is a talk that can interest nearly everybody - at last we all attended schools. If you have some time, I encourage you to watch it.

- frankly -in an open, honest, and direct manner
- pin (v) - attach or fasten with a pin or pins
- tremendous -very great in amount, scale, or intensity
- squander - waste in a reckless or foolish manner (e.g time, money)
- contention - dissagrement, an assertion
