Entry #6: Las Vegas

 So last weekend I went on a trip to Las Vegas.  Now keep in mind this was my first time going to Las Vegas so I really don't know what to expect other than a lot of casinos.  Well first thing is first, Nevada looks a lot like Arizona.  I didn't feel really amazed at first because it was really another dessert, and Las Vegas happened to be in the middle of nowhere.  

As soon as I arrived in Las Vegas with my family, we stayed in the Flamingo Hotel.  It was an average hotel, not too fancy but then again not too disgusting.  Anyways, they had FLAMINGOS IN THE HOTEL!  I never saw flamingos so getting a chance to see them was really cool, although I forgot to take a picture of them.  

The best part of the trip was walking down the strip at night and seeing all the lights from all the buildings, but what I found to be the coolest thing in Las Vegas was visiting the Strat Hotel.  It was so cool because me and my mom went to the very top of this needle like structure and to get the chance to see the whole city from a very high altitude was really exhilarating.

Overall, I thought the experience of visiting Las Vegas was better than I have expected.  Although, it is definitely not made for people who are under 21 years of age, but still a good experience.  What do you guys think about Las Vegas?

    Yea I agree with you that Las Vegas is not for the people under 21 but there are still a lot of cool things to do there even if you are not 21. When I went a long time ago we rode a lot of rides they had it one building I forgot which one.

    I haven’t been to Las Vegas since I was a kid and I had no business going at a young age but my family liked to go to casinos and doing adult things. Now that I’m older I will like to go just to go to the Harley Davidson store. I’ve also never seen a flamingo in my life before so that’s good that you saw one for the first time.

Entry #5: Local Report

  An article was written by Gov. Doug Ducey talking about how Arizona needs more college graduates.  Automatically in his intro, he establishes credibility as a governor, as a husband, and father, that he understands how important education is to each and every college student in Arizona.  He also utilizes pathos by empathizing with parents that getting a college degree is hard, but with his solution, he will help all college students economically.  Also, throughout the article, he establishes logos by utilizing statistics such as how many have a college degree, how many Arizonians have a job, etc.  Gov. Doug Ducey just does a great job of using these three essential rhetorical tools to get his point across. As a student, I think it's great that Gov. Doug Ducey is going to fund universities $38 million for resources.  I feel like as a student, it's important to be up-to-date on textbooks and also new technological advances such as better projectors, or may...

Entry #10: Finishing First Year of College

Image
My first year of college is about to come to an end.  I only have roughly about 3 and a half weeks left until my 2nd semester is over and I have to say that it was quite a busy year.  After spending one year here at GCC , I learned a lot about what community college has to offer.  The number one thing is that it's super cheap to attend a community college.  Also, I learned that college is very heavy on the workload.  Back in high school, I remember the workload being a lot less but in college, it's way different.  It took me a while to get used to it, but now it's something casual to do my homework every day of the week.  I learned that classes are tougher than usual, and that to get a good grade, one must be responsible for their effort and turn work in on time. I also learned more in-depth about my career as a Mechanical Engineer.  After taking an engineering course, I got more interested in my major.  Realizing what goes into the field of ...

Entry #4: Hiking

  So far I made a huge change in my schedule this semester of college.  With a new schedule comes new struggles but also some free time for yourself.  After a busy first semester of college, I decided to spend more time on myself.  Recently, I've been starting to hike a lot this semester.  After a long day of classes, I always wanted to do something that could release my stress but back then, I never found something that I thoroughly enjoyed.  That's when I came across hiking and I realized hiking has the best of two worlds.  Not only is it a good workout, but walking a trail while watching the scenery is what makes hiking really fun.  Just being able to see nature at its finest.  Seeing the view of the city and especially the sunsets is really the reason why I enjoy hiking.  Anyways, hiking has been helping me maintain my fitness and reducing my stress.  After each hike, I feel like I can take on anything like I acquire more motiva...
