Personal Narrative: Why I Want To Go Back To Las Vegas, Nevada Ever Again
There is only one reason why I would not want to go back to Las Vegas, Nevada ever again. You might be thinking that it must be something bad for someone not to want to go back to Sin City. I think after you hear my story, and you know how horrible my experience was, you will understand. Do not watch fights in Sin City. It was a hot Thursday night in Phoenix, AZ when the excitement started to settle in. Just the smell of the airport was enough to make me want to scream with joy. The planes could not come quick enough as the cries of little infants were heard all throughout the terminal, making my heart pound even faster. As we sat there waiting for the plane to arrive, we saw your occasional weirdoes with dread locks dressed in the colors that should never even be worn together, in my opinion, Yellow, Red, and Green. Then we saw your casual business people dressed in blazers and ties.
After what seemed like an eternity, the

I was right. Not even an hour after we landed, we witnessed our first fight between two prostitutes fighting over a corner. I am not talking about verbally fighting; I am talking about a physical altercation. Not intervening, my cousin and I decide to watch from afar, as these two women scrapped it out. 5 minutes into the fight, the cops showed up and put them both into pink handcuffs. My cousin and I decided the show was over, and we should head up to the hotel room and get some rest. The cops had a different idea. They accused me and my cousin of being pimps and putting these prostitutes up to do this street show. What are the odds that you and your cousin are going to be accused of being pimps in Vegas? Anyway, after much deliberation they decided to let us go. However, we are still known to them as the “Young pimps in Vegas” because they did not believe a word we said, but they did not have evidence to hold us. Thank God for the justice system,

    It was just a boring day in my hometown, a traditional, weak entrance a lot of narrative stories use to try to get the attention of the readers. This story, however, isn’t one of those traditional stories; this one involves a day that had been exciting up to that point already. The memory that resonates daily throughout my mind would have to be the time when I went to Six Flags for the first time in my life. Before I jump into my story, I should tell you my friends mess with each other a lot, almost to the point where we get into fights with each other.…

    I am not going to start this off with a quote because that's what everyone else is doing. I am Avery Peak and I hate doing things someone has already done. I like being creative in my own way, that's why I have a grain shoot for an exhaust in my truck and rolling on 37inch mud tires.…

    In 2008 I moved to Bluffton to help start a new aluminum remelt facility called Alexin. I was one of three invited to make the move from western Kentucky by the presidents of Alexin because of my knowledge of the industry, my reputation as a hard worker, and my positive attitude. In the past nine years a lot has changed. Even though I know longer work in the aluminum industry, I still pride myself on my knowledge, reputation, and attitude. The job has changed, but what it takes to be successfully in any occupation has not.…

    If I don’t have homework for 4-5 days. I think I will go Lake Tahoe and rent a cabin for these nights. I will bring my camera and go there to take some photos. At night, I will stay in the cabin and look through the photos I take to find some good or bad aspect for each photo to improve my photography skill. And I will bring some tea with me, so I can truly relax from the academic stress.…

    The holidays are fast approaching and I can't believe it. The leaves have changed colors and are falling rapidly off the trees. It seems like I looked and blinked and an entire year just just flew by, and my now little girl is not so little anymore. I've been going through photos of past Christmases and I can see the growth that has taken place throughout the year. As most of you know, I grew up in the Caribbean and I never experienced snow until we moved to the United States. Christmas for us meant cotton dresses and tees and we were even able to wear shorts as well, because it was summer all year round. Now fast forward to today, and I have children of my own and they need different wardrobes for each season including the holidays. The…

    Hi, Daria! I had a pretty similar situation. When I told people that I am going to university in Las Vegas, they gave me some bad looks. Since a lot of people talked about Las Vegas badly, I was worried. However, this is not true. Like you said, I do not drinking and clubbing all the time. I do my homework and live normal life. People think Las Vegas is a sin city because people do not have a good impression on Las Vegas' commercials. The commercials could give give advantages and disadvantages to people. In my opinion, "What happens in Las Vegas, stays in Vegas" is not that bad. Really it is depends on people and their thoughts. Some people think it is funny and they might visit to spend a great time like other cities. However, some people…

    I am sure it happened as easily as this: We were sitting around the garage shooting the bull during a cold winter snap. Thoughts turned to motorcycle rides and things spring and summer. For once, it wasn’t me. Mrs. K was the one to mention going to California. We hadn’t taken a trip the summer before, and she said, “We ought to ride to California and take the PCH along the coast.” Probably, no one jumped up and started packing, but several certainly starting thinking. One mention leads to another mention which leads to final plans. For me, it was a dream I have had since I watched Then Came Bronson and spent my time reading On the Road. For all of us, we researched the trip and found places and things…

    The sound of the ocean is a form of relaxation but for me, I like to call it home. Ventura is a small county located in the southern part of the California and for the past twenty-two years it has been my sanctuary. The other two years of my life I spent in a smaller town called Irapuato, Guanajuato, Mexico. This was my birthplace and home to my parents until they made the decision of migrating directly to Ventura County. Within Irapuato City, there are small ranchos or ranches, located on the outskirts of town and at our rancho, we would raise pigs, goats, cows and, sheep. Surrounding our rancho there are acres of land, where we plant fruits and vegetables to consume and sell to our little community. Life in Mexico is much more rural than…

    Imagine being stripped away from everything you knew: your childhood friends; cousins you thought you'd always have with you, and places you called your second, third, or even fourth home. That is exactly what I went through when my family decided to move to Albuquerque, New Mexico. What's different about my experience was that it wasn't necessarily the move that flipped my world upside down but everything that happened in between. I was an awkward, shy, midget-like twelve-year-old when my family and I lost our home during the California money crisis. From that point on it was like a tumbling circus act. My parents ended up losing their jobs until finally my dad moved to New Mexico; leaving me and my family for almost a year. The last thing…
