This Man Has Been Taking Selfies Every Day for the Last 16 Years

Posted: 26 May 2015 05:02 AM PDT

Long before selfies became a way of life, this Alaska man began to take pictures of himself every day. Now, 16 years later, Jonathan Keller has released an extraordinary time-lapse video consisting of a whopping 5,840 pictures of his face! The three-and-a-half minute video shows his transformation from a 22-year-old young adult to his current 39-year-old self.

Keller's project, titled 'Living My Life Faster', began on October 1, 1998. Ever since, he's been taking one picture of himself every single day, wearing the same emotionless expression. His goal, it seems, is to show that the daily changes to his appearance are almost insignificant when viewed in chronological order. But the 'before' and 'after' pictures show that he has indeed aged visibly.

Artist Overcomes Her 100 Biggest Fears in Inspirational Project

Posted: 26 May 2015 04:38 AM PDT

In a bid to live her life to the fullest, artist Michelle Poler has decided to face 100 biggest fears. She's calling the project '100 Days Without Fear' and her goal is to do one thing that scares her, every day for 100 days.

Originally from Venezuela, Michelle recently moved to New York to get a Master's Degree in Branding at the School of Visual Arts. She revealed that the experience of living in the city inspired her to take on the project. "Trying to control New York has been a nightmare," she said. "But what has really pushed me to pursue this project was not the controlled lifestyle I left behind, it is the frustration of not enjoying this city and life in general to the fullest."

11-Year-Old Homeschooled Boy Graduates from College with 3 Different Degrees

Posted: 26 May 2015 03:19 AM PDT

11-year-old child prodigy Tanishq Abraham is in the news for graduating from college with not one, not two, but three different degrees. The talented kid from California made headlines last year as well, for completing high school at the age of ten and earning a congratulatory letter from President Barack Obama. And now, just a year later, he's finished college with three associate degrees.

Last week's graduation ceremony at the American River College in Sacramento was attended by Tanishq's parents – his mother Taji, a vet, and his father Bijou, a software engineer. His sister Tiara, also a child prodigy, was present as well. They cheered for Tanishq as he was awarded associate degrees in math and physical sciences, general science, and language studies. He wore a rainbow colored scarf that his grandmother had knit specially for the occasion, and a cap with his favorite Toy Story-quote: 'To Infinity and Beyond."
