  • Day 1

    Monday, January 21, 2013 | A Positive story

    Gambling free for 1 day :-) It's a good feeling. It was hard and I kept thinking about it. I am so worried that when Friday comes and there is money in the bank that I will want to go to the casino. Let's hope I'm stronger than that.

    Not really.. its 8 days.. but i like to write titles that people can reference to something.
    One week passed. So many lessons learned in one week.. pretty sure i didn't learn this much in my entire schooling. Then again.. no one could teach me because it has all been lessons about myself and my interaction with the world and people in my life.
