This Texan girl is finally back from her amazing Sin City vacation and I must confess that Las Vegas has taken its toll on me.
My feet are swollen, my skin is completely sunburned and I've gained some weight. Lets just say that having three fooled nights filled with girl drama, girl bonding, shopping, drinking and gambling can be extremely exhausting.The trip was not at all what I expected:
It was ten times BETTER!!!
I need to mention that this trip was the first one where I had to do the whole boarding an airplane and checking in to a hotel on my own. The whole dynamic terrified me. It made my stomach twirl and acke (Not just because I have a deep hatred for airplanes). But to my surprise I did well, I passed security, took my plane and waited 4 hours in Vegas while the rest of my party arrived. and through the whole ordeal I was at perfect peace (Saying a few prayers here and now whenever I thought I couldn't handle it).
But enough of silly details lets get started with the trips highlights:
First of all lets mention the fact that I loved having my own room. Being able to watch TV at full volume, setting the temperature at my own like, jumping on both beds, being able to air dry, model my outfits in embarrassing poses in front of the mirror, it was all absolutely thrilling.
I know it sounds completely selfish but I've always thought that there is no point in writing something that I don't mean (Fiction or Non-Fiction it has to be something I mean). So to be completely honest I loved not having roommates!!!
Second the food is delicious. The buffets are huge, sort of the banquets I imagined the Greek gods had. And there is food everywhere!!! Every hotel has different types of food from the crepes Suzette at the Paris, or the Gelatos at the Mirage. There are millions of choices for all kinds of tastes. The New York has a pizza place that opens 24hrs its the perfect solution for when a tiring night of dancing ends and one is completely starving.
Its not just the food its the drinking.
Its not just the food its the drinking.
The large variety of alcoholic smoothies one can consume there is astonishing. And the fact that you can continue your stroll around the strip under the hot sunny day with the cold deliciousness in your hand is just heaven.I know that if you don't know me very well this might make me sound like an alcoholic but the truth is I hardly ever drink, I mean I enjoy cocktails but I have never in my life found the idea of drinking till i pass out or hurling something fun, which is why i control my drinking as much as possible limiting it to feel a slight buzz but no more. Having said this let me explain that under no circumstance was I going to pass on the opportunity of drinking in sin City!!! Still I kept my values on check and at no moment did I pass out or vomit.
The third highlight of Sin city are the clubs.
Each hotel has a different club and each club has a different style.
Dancing is the best part of each club, there are like million dancing styles.
The lights are usually so dim you can sway your body in any direction, just for a while let go of all your inhibitions, your fears your issues and just sway. The music is so load you literally feel your heart change its beat, your whole body begins to pump blood faster than if you'd just finished a run and the whole ordeal just make you feel...Alive!
It doesn't matter who you are with, who is watching or anything. All that matters is that for those few music filled hours you are just forgetting it all and swaying jumping even yelling all your basic instinct take over and dancing becomes not just part of the experience but the entire point.
Downside the drinks are way expensive, every guy there is only interested in one thing,
Not that there is anything wrong about going to sin city in search for some physical fun but I still find the whole hooking up with a complete stranger, Gross. Not only because of the obvious diseases that might be involved but because of the whole lack of emotional connection. I know I am completely old fashioned I understand that now in these current days, sex and making love are not one in the same. But still when I lose the big V I want it to be with the old traditional values, love marriage fidelity.
OK Ups getting way off topic. Where were we? Right, Vegas. The shows are incredible!
Seriously they are truly wonderful. I went to see Menopause the musical (I kid you not) it is the most hilarious thing ever. imagine four slightly over weighed grown women singing about Hot Flashes. It was just to die for. Not to mention that one of the actresses was the one who lend her voice as Belle in Disney's beauty and the beast (One of my absolute favorites).
The next show we saw was Criss Angel's Believe!!!
I can't even begin to describe how impacting this show was.
I guess I should begin by saying that until I saw this show I had not even the slightest idea of Who Criss angel was. The theater for his show is in the Luxor Hotel it is breath taking. its huge, and gothic and filled with really scary bunnies (Before this I didn't even know bunny's could be that scary, except for my red eyed freak I had when I was in second grade)
The point is Criss Angel is seriously scary he can do stuff that I can't even begin to wrap my mind on. Seriously cutting a women, appearing levitating. It was all so shocking! I have no more words to describe this so please just check him out. (Plus he is way Hot)
This pretty much summarizes the whole Vegas trip. I am not mentioning the private drama (Cause trust me that with an all girls trip there is bound to be some drama) because well its none of your business anyway.
So let me end by saying Hiya Austin!
