I thought the article about Arelia M. Taveras with her gambling problems was messed up. She can't blame her trouble on casinos. She's to blame for her doleful fate.
I think she has no right to sue the casino at all. It's not their business if she wants to gamble for four or five straight days without sleeping. They don't care. Infact, the casinos are benifitting from it anyways.
Personal responsibility ends with herself. It's not the casinos' duty to take care of her and mind about her help problems that she didn't sleep at all. It's not their problem. She was suppose to be responsible for herself and should have controlled her gambling habits.
The advice that I would like to give Arelia Taveras is that she stop gambling or else she has to learn to control herself. I would like to tell her that everyone is responsible for themselves and their own life and problem.

Welcome Back Friends -- Prompt 33
I was on Mission trip the past three weeks and it was an awesome experience.I had also grew spiritually which is a very good thing. I didn't wanted to go the first time but now I don't regret going to Nicaragua at all. I had tons of fun there even though we had to edit our sermons almost every single day. It was a great blessing to actually be able to share the gospel with the people in Nicaragua knowing that you must do your best because they might not hear it ever again. Being up there in front of all those people was very scary. The people there was sweet, caring, and very humble. I fell deeply in love with Nicaragua and the people there. I miss Nicaragua and I was glad I went. On this mission trip, I learnt that there are actually thousands of people out there who wants to know more about God and get closer to Him. I also learnt that mission trips are amazing!

Keeping Secrets – Prompt 23
The best kind of secret is a kept secret. I think that secrets should not be spread all over and become a rumor. As an exception, there are some secret that should not be kept if it’s going to harm. Even if I have to break my promise, I would still tell a friend about it. A secret is so not worth as much as a person’s life. Imagine living with guilt your whole life for not telling anyone about the hurtful secret you kept.

Beauty or Brains--Prompt 22
I would totally pick brains of course! Beauty is nothing and you go nowhere. It is just the outer appearance . Brains is the inner beauty. I think that inner beauty is what really matters the most in defining an amazing person. Inner beauty would make me happier because I would love the person for who that person is and not for what that person looks like.
No Women Allowed--Prompt 21
I think that some jobs should only be appropriate for men. I don't think that women should be able to do any job they want because I really don't think women should be allowed to do hard works and constructions. If women are able to hold any job they want to then there will be no difference between men and women at all except for our appearances. God has created men to be the leader of the family which I think it means that men should be the one doing the hard jobs!

No More ToFurky Left -- Prompt 20
Thanksgiving Holiday was the BOMB! It was pretty nice to get a break after all those days of school. It was awesome to just sleep in everyday without even worrying about the time at all. You could even wake up in the middle of the night and go get something to eat like it's during the day or something. Thanksgiving is pretty sweet because all you do is sleep and pig out. YEAH!!
The Boob Tube -- Prompt 19
I think that the value of a lot of extraordinary stuff in this world has been lessened due to the cause of people watching TV too much. People around the world used to be amazed by the wonders of the world till they start spending too much time with their beloved TV. Long ago, people used to watch like Mister Roger's Neighbourhood but TV has changed everything. Nowadays, everyone is psyched about wasting their time watching MTV and dancing around along with the songs. I think that TV has a big influence on our interests. It could also changed the way people think and believe.
