Fish Bowl Syndrome

As humans we often capture animals so that we can closely observe their behavior and natural instincts. At times we do not realize that we are hindering them from their natural ways of life. A fish placed in an aquarium probably laughs at the failed imitation of the ocean or pond. At Wayn Radio we push our students to think outside of the “bowl”! Wayn Radio makes their students strive for excellence! Don’t find yourself stuck in a fish bowl.

Happy Mother’s Day!!

Flowers are a way of expressing our appreciation for our mothers however, flowers wither up and die within a few days after buying them so take time to show your mother your true appreciation for her unconditional and never ending love. Remember mother’s are not perfect they are human just like everyone else working towards perfection! Wayn Radio would like to wish a Happy Mother’s Day to all of the mothers in the world. Especially the mothers that help make Wayn Radio a success each and every day!!
