This is an amazing story of a couple that made their $70,000 debt disappear in a year. Jaime Tardy and her husband Matthew had student loans, car loans and house payments that kept increasing every year. with a baby on the way they knew it was time for a change. They started by trading their car in for a cheaper one, and then sold their second car. They canceled their cable, and bought a cheaper house. Before they knew it, all their debt was paid off and they had $23,000 in the bank.
I was so amazed when i read this story. I takes a lot of commitment to spend only $25 dollars a month as pocket money. But they knew what they had to do for their baby. They worked hard so the baby doesn't have to be born in a financially unstable home or worry about not being able to afford things the baby needs. they are truly extraordinary.

Girl Keeps New Year's Resolution: One Good Deed Per Day
This story gave me a warm feeling when i read it last night. it is about a teenage girl and her promise to herself. she made a new years resolution to help someone everyday. She has helped an old lady clean an attic, volunteered at the homeless center and or simply held doors open.
I admire her so much for being able to keep her promise. People usually give up their new years resolution after a couple of weeks but for her to keep it this long is amazing. she made sure she was doing it to benefit not herself but other people. With so many negative things in this world, its amazing to see this kind of positive deed.

David beckham tattoo
David beckham got a new tatto on his chest, which shows himself as Jesus. On the tattoo he is lying down while his 3 kids surround him. But the kids have wing and look very much like angles.He uploaded a picture on his facebook page to showoff his tattoo.
He tried giving an explanation by saying his kids would have to take care of him in the future and that is what the tattoo signifies.To me, that is not a reason to get a tattoo like that. I get the message that he thinks he is as good as jesus. But getting the tattoo is not the only thing he did wrong, He personaly uploaded the picture on facebook. He knew what kind of reaction this might cause and how people would feel about it. Being a public figure, He did not handle this situation the right way. It is very insulting to religious people becaue as Jesus is someone as pray to and worship, him getting the tattoo his very upsetting.
