Las Vegas-Personal Narrative
At first when I had heard of it, I wasn’t too sure on what it was or how it was going to be. When my brother and I had got there it was a beautiful sight. We found out that the strip was all of Las Vegas pretty much and there’s an abundance of beautiful and elusive lights that light up all of it. We took a trip around the whole thing and went to all the little stores and bought some neat souvenirs to take home with us since this was going to be our last day sadly. After we were done we had to head back to the hotel and we heard good news that my dad one in one of his poker tournaments and we greeted him there. We went to bed in the beautiful night of Las Vegas and waited for the morning. I couldn’t believe the fun was already

    Whilst looking through my collection of photographs I discover a bundle labelled “Orlando, Florida 2005”. Just then a lot of very happy memories came flooding back, these pictures seem like they where only taken yesterday. Yet they where taken 12 years ago, my last family holiday. I can remember every detail about this particular holiday, obviously it had such a huge impact on me. I recall visiting Disneyland and meeting all the Disney princesses I was so gobsmacked. It was all a 5 year old little girl could dream of! I would clutch my big sisters hand and jump up and down with excitement. One of my fondest memories was doing the princess tour, my sister was 12 and she just did anything to make her little sister happy so obviously she joined…

    I live in a small city called South Lake Tahoe in the state of California. The people in South Lake consider themselves locals as long as you have lived here for more than 10 years. However, locals consider our city a town. Our town is mainly a tourist town, skiers and snowboarders in the winter and campers in the summer. When somebody moves to South Lake Tahoe, it may only be for a few reasons; to be a ski bum, get out of the bay area, or family. The people that move here either make it or they do not because of financial reasons. It is very hard to make a decent living here. To say it short and simple, a person can move up here with money or they learn to live paycheck by paycheck.…

    The clock above my head ticks slowly, the sound ever increasing as the minutes pass by; tick, tick, tick. I normally do not notice the time while I work, usually I am the energizer bunny of workers, in early, out late, always working or willing to, but that day was different; I had a date; a first date to be exact. Finally the time has come for me to go home; I step out into the warm Vegas air, I can smell the familiar scents of fall slowly encroaching on the city. September in Vegas is typically warm, with the average daily temperatures in the upper nineties. I lite a cigarette and walk through the parking garage to my car. My mind was racing; what will he be like, will he be funny, boring; I even allow my thoughts to drift to what he would look like naked.…

    Las Vegas is exactly what I thought it would be in so many ways. I never thought a place could live so fully up to its famous and infamous reputation. From the slot machines to the nudity. Its almost like the entire place just never found its filter. "Southern Hospitality" was null and void and I'm guessing never even heard of let alone considered. Its just the complete rawness was something I'm not used to it at all. In the south everyone is so much more conservative and worried about what they look like in other people's eyes. It just seems like everyone there was so much more worried about themselves and their own lives they didn't have time to be worried with others. There was also this sense of togetherness and understanding. Not necessarily…

    When I think of term rock and roll, I remember watching MTV and seeing Axel Rose scream into the microphone with his whinny voice the lyrics of “Paradise City” while dancing across the stage in his ridiculous outfits. My father would nostalgically reminisce of the epic guitar solos of the Eagles, Don Felder. My father being a teenager during the height of the rock music era afforded him certain opportunities to see the big hair bands perform live during their prime. When I was still a boy, he would tell me stories of concerts he had been to and rock legends he had met. I had always wanted to have such an experience and last month my wish was finally granted.…

    It was mid June I remember and out here in Las Vegas that meant intense heat. Here we were two 15 year olds out on the streets with a baby on the way. Trying to keep cool was harder than I thought. We both were hungry, tired, and scared. I never imagined my self in that situation at such a young age. We walked and walked all over looking for somewhere to sleep. When we finally found somewhere to sleep outside of a church, my whole life flashed by as I layed there.…

    We all have known Las Vegas as a bustling city of gambling, late night fun and the endearing concept of living one's life to the fullest. Aside from it being a hub for casinos and luxurious hotels, there had been a lot of displays of talent going on, from the eclectic lounge singers to the hyped-up music DJs crowing night clubs and youth bars, all of which got a story of their own tell, and for us to experience through the music that they produce.

    The lights, the shows, the money; welcome to Las Vegas, Sin City. It is the perfect destination for bachelor parties—as portrayed in the wildly popular comedy, The Hangover. It is an ideal getaway for young couples, the perfect place for a girls’ weekend out, and a super spot to get hitched. Vegas is a lot of things—flashy, exciting, and scandalous, just to name a few. There is one thing Las Vegas is not, though. Las Vegas is not a family friendly city. If the infamous slogan of Sin City, “what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas,” does not already say enough, Las Vegas is the worst destination for a family vacation, as it fails to provide a relaxing, stress-free environment that all members of the family can enjoy.…
