But I'm having a hard time figuring out What THAT change is? Any regulars here that could tell me what MyLot is doing differently since then?? I'm having trouble finding it.

jypsyjulia I was actually wondering the same. And that was a great link, Owlwings, but can people still make money here?

So, I have always wanted to work abroad either in Japan or in Switzerland as a teacher, but I just haven't gotten the chance to do so; however I did get to work in China and Russia which were AWESOME. So, I was wondering if anyone...

jypsyjulia Wow! I'd like to work as a children's nanny in a foreign country! Where did you hear about these oppotunities? I bet it must have been so much fun, working in Finland and Australia. Currently, I am a primary school teacher as well :-)

jypsyjulia I've always wanted to teach in Japan too! (I think I wrote that in my original paragraph, but I can't remember, haha.) Have you heard of the JET program? When I get my BA, that is the program I want to do it with. It seems really wonderful.

jypsyjulia You studied abroad in Germany? That is so awesome! What were you studying and which part of Germany? My mom lived in Germany for two years with her first husband (military man). She LOVED it. She always talks about going back, haha!

jypsyjulia Wait, are you saying that you think you are going to Hell? You know you can change that, right? Just because you're young and stain of sin doesn't mean you get an automatic ticket to Hell. Heck, we all stain of sin, LOL! But accepting and lovnig God and...

In my Philosophy class, I recently read a section written by Blaise Pascal. In it, he is stating that it is better to wager on God than to not, because if He does exist then we will be saved. Pascal emphasizes that wagering and...

jypsyjulia You need to realize the time period that Pascal is from, though. Other gods just did not fit into the context of his Renaissance life. God was the only god that most people even knew of back then, so of course the wager on God would be for the Christian-Judeo...

jypsyjulia Okay, I see what your saying. But according to Pascal, wagering on God isn't really loving God. Do you think it's okay to wager on Him? Or do you find it a bit selfish to simply wager on a Being that demands a relationship? Is there love in a wager?

jypsyjulia Oh definitely. You have to practice it daily to change your mind set. It's kind of like Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, when people go in for depression or anxiety or bipolar or any other mental disorder that has the basis of negative thoughts. The therapist...

jypsyjulia Hm? It's not hard for me at all. All I am saying is that it is psychological; The Secret is just explaining the mentality of thinking positively and how it can impact your life.

jypsyjulia Absolutely! I think that if a person is stating their opinion and maybe they're doing it a bit abrasively, then there's not reason to rate that response negative at all. That person is just saying their point of view and may be very passionate about it....

jypsyjulia That is basically what Pascal is saying, yes; that's also how I take it too. I think that he is taking the "safe" route as well and I don't believe that wagering on God means you're saved. Pascal also says that he thinks it makes you a better person, which I...

jypsyjulia Hm... yes, I am aware of Blaise Pascal's history, but I am more interested to hear YOUR opinion, not just a summary of Pascal's life :D Pascal is not saying to bet on a "religion" but rather to literally place your bets on God. Of course everyone has the right...

jypsyjulia I actually don't think so, not yet anyway, just because the parts of the brain necessary for language have not fully developed in our primate friends. However, I do think that they could possibly UNDERSTAND the language very fluently, but their larynx has not...

jypsyjulia Well "best" is a relative word, ha ha. But I think that pop rock is the most popular, with bands like 'Kings of Leon' or 'Paramore' and others... this is my guess, especially since R&B artists are starting to adopt some of pop rock style to their music.

would you try to steal someone else's partner if you really liked him? would you feel bad about it? or consider that it's not your fault that the person in the case liked you more than he liked his ex partner?

jypsyjulia I completely agree. The 3D craze is just so foreign to me. I think that some movies actually are better 3D, though. For example, I greatly enjoyed seeing Avatar in 3D and feel that it was well worth it. But seeing Jacka$$ 3D? I didn't even know it was offered!...
