Las Vegas-Personal Narrative

Improved Essays
Are you afraid of flying in planes? More than 20 million people are afraid of going on planes and unfortunately I’m one of them. My mom, dad, and sister Harman boarded the plane at MCI. We were off to Las Vegas. I know that Las Vegas is a weird place to go with your family but we went anyways. Las vegas wasn’t the only place we were going, but it was where the adventure began. We had arrived at Las Vegas. As soon as we stepped outside we were sweating. It was 114 degrees! It felt like the sun was walking right next to us. After we grabbed a bite we headed off to our hotel. As soon as we walked into Bellagio we were in awe. It was the most beautiful hotel/casino I had ever seen. It was very busy, i mean that's no surprise. I turned around to get a full view of the hotel. My dad and my sister, Harman, went to go check in. My mom and I decided to take a stroll. We saw expensive shops like Valentino, Rolex, Chanel, Dior, Fendi, Gucci, Louis Vuitton, and many more. We went inside of the Rolex store and there was a 1.5 million dollar watching sitting there in a box. It had diamonds all over it and was sparkling. My mom said “I wish I was rich enough to buy that lovely watch” I couldn’t agree anymore. My dad went to go drop off our luggage, so my sister decided to continuing walking with us. We headed south from the Rolex shop and there stood a indoor aquarium. It was bright and adventurous. You could walk through a tunnel that had all these different sea creatures. Next to the tunnel were all these statues that were sea creatures. We decided to head back to our room. As my sister and I walked in our room we saw two fixed queen sized beds. I admittedly started jumping on …show more content…
We were out the door in no time.
We exited the hotel and started getting in our car. We started driving and were thinking about what we should do. Then we saw a huge billboard on a building about a show called “KA” by Cirque Du Soleil. “That looks cool” said

    Excitement was running through my body. Although it took forever to get here I wanted to stay there for a while, the lights were amazing as the neon lights of the Las Vegas strip were lit up and very beautiful. Many people walked through the stores, or outside them enjoying the lights. I saw a roller coaster next to a castle, A hotel I suppose, and A giant black pyramid. I’m glad I went on this trip, I was very patient getting here,…

    On Thursday, October 12th, I took the opportunity to help at the Agua Caliente Casino’s College Fair event, with the intention that I would also see the schools I intend to apply. While at the event, I saw many colleges and universities with their luring stands’ free candies, pens, and informational brochures. Overall, the schools all had something great to offer; whether it was the small class sizes or amazing student abroad programs. Although universities from as far as Hawaii to Oregon may have grabbed my attention – because of its stunning scenery and programs – I restricted my preferences to California schools. In particular, my eyes lit up when I saw UC Irvine, UC Riverside, CSU Channel Islands, – given that I’ve seen some of these see…

    Two thousand five hundred eighty-seven. I could take an eight-hour flight or a casual thirty-seven-hour drive, but no matter what, I am still two thousand five hundred eighty-seven miles away from my home in New Haven, Connecticut. Being a college freshman, trying to juggle class, homework, projects, studying, sleeping, eating, and athletics; finding the travel time to go home is an almost impossible task. Add in the cost of the $600 flights round trip and there is no chance a student can go visit home when they feel a little homesick. I on the other hand had never even fathomed being homesick from the frozen tundra I called home.…

    Growing up in the Valleys of Reno Nevada the weather can be unexpected and terrible from the summer rainstorms to the whiteout winter in five feet of snow. There are a lot of power outages that I have encountered, knowing how to start a fire and get some kind of heat and light was imperative to my family. My mom was always prepared. On the counter top in the corner of our bathroom always sat a dusty odd looking glass kerosene lamp that was always topped off with smelly kerosene.…

    Although I am embarrassed to tell this story, for it screams massive class and racial privilege, I guess it will be another step in the acceptance of my innate privilege and social status. A few weeks ago, I had the chance to hang out with a high school buddy of mine, whom I had not seen in a while. He texted me asking if I was interesting in making a trip to the L’auberge Casino, for his girlfriend had just recently turned twenty-one and was interested in trying out her new legal freedom. I had not been to the casino since my twenty-first birthday, about ten months ago, so I decided that playing with the slot machines would not hurt. As the time to leave came, I hopped in my car, left my house, located in a subdivision on Staring Lane,…

    They were visiting Los Angeles and decided to hire a car to drive to Palm Springs and Las Vegas, and then back to Los Angeles. The conversation was terrific, and they both thought I had a fabulous attitude. They have a very relaxed, non-judgemental, and open-minded outlook that I expect from the French and German people, which put me at ease. I would have enjoyed spending more time talking with them, but it was now 11PM, and I had to leave soon due to my early start at work the following day. I informed them that I'm spending Thursday and Friday in Los Angeles for Thanksgiving in case they're back there by then, so we exchanged contact details.…

    The day seemed to drag on and on, as I waited, counting down the days to California. It was a humid, sunny afternoon down at the Alton pool, where I usually spend most of my summer days working as a lifeguard. Today was very different than most…. And maybe the reason why was because it was my last day of work before I flew off to the big L.A. Most days at the pool the time went by slower than any I have ever known, with the scorching hot sun burning my skin, and little kids yelling at their friends telling each other secrets or what they want to play next.…

    In this photograph, a young boy wearing a bubbly bright blue shirt shamelessly flashes a rather tooth lacking smile for the camera. His arms and legs are crossed while he sits on a tiled bench under an ominous and cloud speckled sky. Behind this young boy rests a little girl wearing a tomato red complexion. She is adorned with a shiny silver necklace and a shirt that literally screamed summer. Under her resting hand laid cold tiles that would leave an imprint of the frigid shapes that pressed against her soft skin.…
