| Peterd and Georgia, thank you for your responses.

For even one who is logical can fall to a game of logic, such as gambling... |

| Hello WP users, It's been many years (at least 5 or 6) since I last used WP to post or discuss things from my life, although I have browsed it occasionally to see what others are discussing.

On the one hand, I know I'm smart, getting A's and challenging myself with tough classes in college, and all that stuff. However, although I've accepted it on an academic/career-r... |
