I went to Las Vegas for three days. I thought I wasn’t going to enjoy it, but in the end I really had a great time. There’s so much to do and see in Las Vegas. It is almost impossible to get bored living there because of the different types of entertainment the hotels/casinos/resorts offers. I’ve been to Las Vegas three times before, and this is my fourth time. This time around I was old enough to actually gamble in the casinos.
I didn’t want to gamble because I made a commitment that I will never gamble, just like my other commitment that I will never drink Starbucks coffee or any other coffee that is fancy coffee made by fancy places or something close to it like Starbucks. I have never drank Starbucks coffee. Well, I ended up gambling before I left Las Vegas. I don’t feel guilty that I lost some money because in the end I had a great time playing the machines and the card games.
The only reason why I gambled in the first place is because of these two attractive girls. One of them is a year older than I am, the other a couple years older, both are sisters, and newly graduated just like me. I don’t even know them, but they know me somehow back when I was living in the east coast, or something like that, I don’t know. I went out with them to the casino, and they started playing the machines. I didn’t want to be stingy and save my money, so it was fuck it guerilla radio turn that shit up like that song by rage against the machine. Pretty much I played the machines also. Afterwards I went with them to the coffee-shop, and this was probably at 2 in the morning, and they wanted to get some coffee to keep awake. They asked if I wanted coffee. I said no thanks.
I’m sure those cappuccino, espresso’s, French roast, and all those blends of coffees taste really good. Maybe I should have also bought a coffee at that coffee shop because afterwards the three of us sat around this small circular table and talked. They were fun to talk with, and actually pretty attractive in my eyes. I could have taken a picture of them and with them, but I never did. I’m pissed off about that, but nothing I can do about it now, and I do regret it, I don’t know why I didn’t do it. I didn’t really talk a lot, and they said, how come you are so quiet. I don’t know why I’m quiet in real life. I used to be so outgoing and talkative when I was younger, I don’t know what happened to make me an introverted person. I talk a lot with my friends, but otherwise I’m pretty laid back, simple and quiet. They were also pretty good in two Filipino dialects, much much better than me, both of which I can speak and am familiar with. However, they made me sound like a retarded kid with down syndrome when I was talking to them in Pilipino.
This trip to Vegas made me realize that there is so much more to life and I beckon myself to look for these infinite possibilities. To tell you the truth, I don’t mind moving to Vegas, there’s a lot to do there. And I want to spend some more time with those two girls *wink**wink*. If it weren't for them, I wouldn't consider of possibly moving to Vegas. I was also able to visit the residential area outside of the Vegas strip. There is a huge development of new houses outside of the strip near the mountains. The two gals I hanged out with actually live in one of those houses.
But to wrap it up, and as mentioned above, the possibilities in life are infinite. I was down when I graduated because there was hardly anything to do except work and study for my boards, but now I am extremely motivated to study so I can pass my boards and make something out of my life.
