I need to do something to fill that gap.

Find something with that same feeling, you know, that rush. Maybe it is going to college. I dunno. Just need to feel something. Something different than this.

I really enjoyed this movie, which surprised me a little. Usually, the movies we watch in class are boring and long and have nothing happening in them.

...It was very captivating and important. It was very real.

Trust Me is a good watch, it works, it feels real and the 'full envelope, empty envelope' metaphor will stay a long time.

I had never really thought gambling was a problem but after watching this movie I realised that gambling is an addiction that can ruin people's lives.

I liked how the film was so easy to
understand and had a lot of information to
learn from. It showed that gambling can
affect your daily life and future life choices
and even your relationships with family and
friends. It takes over your life

When you think of gambling stereotypically
you think of middle-aged men but what this
really highlighted is that you can be any age
to get addicted. I feel like it impacts young
people more.
