Diana Nyad is a really inspirational woman. She never gave up on her dream to swim from Cuba to Florida even though she was getting older every time she tried to do it. But at the age of 64 she finally completed her life goal. This just shows you that you’re never too old to accomplish a goal, but in order to accomplish you must never give up.

Athletes Doing Good

There was a surveillance video showing 4 college athletes entering a store after closing hours. The first that comes to mind for many people is that they're going to rob the store, but that wasn't the case. It turns out the athletes didn't know that the store was closed. They said that the lights were on and the door was open. Instead of robbing the store they paid for there stuff and left (and by paid I mean they left the money on the counter). They even left the exact amount of change. I see this as a good change to everything else that's going on with college athletes.
