yesterday was vegas day

"relax your shoulders dear. it would be a long ride."

My loving aunt told me this while we're preparing our trip for Vegas. I remember my mom used to tell me that my shoulders looked as if it's always busy and alert, not relaxed. I didn't notice it until she told me.

The ride was definitely a long ride. There was nothing really interesting on the roads since it's all about trees, deserted mountains, cactus and deserts which reminds me of a horror film where zombies just jump on your cars and scare the hell out of you. Actually, I was waiting for it to happen and to my disappointment, it didn't. Nice try.

While I was taking a video of some heavenly-like places, I saw ten signs placed one after the other and guess what, it's the ten commandments. so, there's no zombies? I did not get the essence of those signs until we reached vegas.

The sin city have nothing much to offer to minors like me. It's all about money and sex. It is really indeed, a sin city. We've been in this place a thousand years ago and I remember the times that I thought the slot machines are meant for children until some guy shoo-ed me.


Hotels are wow.

"could I sleep to Vegas for a month?"

no.

"Ok, four weeks?"

no. and get lost.


I saw Donald Trump's building that is made of gold, or with the color of gold. lol. i really dunno, and you could see the gold letter T on top of it. that's too much gold. haha.


Vegas tour is not really our main business there, just part of it. So, while we're waiting for our uncle to finish his business, I craved for a wetzel's pretzels and we got, a goldilocks cake. boom. For the reason that my uncle found himself on a baby shower! so, the cake is the only thing they could offer to us.

And so, we toured around Vegas. took pictures. took pictures some more.

Vegas becomes alive as the night progress. much like Makati.
lights. lights everywhere. pretty sight. and we're tired. I'm tired.
We decided to buy burgers and go home.

They all want a burger from in-n-out burgers and so I want one too.

My aunt asked if we all want onions and I just agreed, what's the big deal with onions?

Solo burgers are soo big. I can't fit it inside my mouth! alas, I was the last one to finish the burger. hello, it's hard to eat a big big burger inside a car, okay? just agree with me. and after all the munching, I grabbed my cola and drunk and then I realized that I don't want onions on my burger anymore. Not that it gives you bad breath but it tastes like some hellish food.

I treated my cola like it was a beer. I drunk it part by part, enjoyed its taste and the satisfaction it gave me. It took away the taste of those stupid onions. I borrowed my brother's ipod and chill-ed.

Hours passed by, I can't sleep even though I tried. I decided to just look out of the car's window. The moon. It's a crescent moon. and, it looked so reachable. like I could touch it and take it home. beautiful.

again, since I can't do anything, I repeated my zombie look-out. hoping that a zombie would just peek outside my window and that's it. I'm fine with it. Unfortunately, no zombies, again.

When you do nothing, you tend to attract thoughts that are long forgotten. so, emo.

Yesterday, there were lots of stars in the sky. Did you notice it guys?

then, I remember that I told you that whenever you miss me, just look at the stars and think that we're just staring at the same stars. I could never be too far.
