These are the kinds of stories that I enjoy reading in the news. Much more inspirational than a bumbling narcisistic histrionic lying kenyan in chief who uses the most powerful office in the world to threaten oil executives and force insurance on people they don't want and threaten to throw them in jail.
I'll just post the link here - it's pretty cool to read. Read About It HERE! And here's a link to her website: Jessica Watson Click Here!

Either way I love reading about people who fulfill their dreams and who live the life I would enjoy and I wish them all the best and hope I get my turn someday.
