Personal Narrative: My Life In Las Vegas

173 Words1 Page

Las Vegas is considered the city of sin and believe me there is plenty of sin going around. It is a place filled with laughter, cries, tragedy, and loss. I have been living in Las Vegas my entire life minus a few years where I lived in Reno, Nevada and Monroe, Louisiana as well. My mother was the light of my life. We shared laughs together that were occasionally accompanied by tears. She was the one person I could tell anything to. There was never a secret in my heart because she knew everything about me. In April of 2004 my world came crashing down because it was then that I had lost my mother. On April 24, 2004 my life changed and took a tragic turn. It started out as a normal day. I had gone to my cousins house the previous day to play

  • Personal Narrative: Coming To Cal

    218 Words  | 1 Pages

    Coming to Cal was great for me because it was the first time I had found a real LGBTQ community. Growing up I always moved schools so most of my friendships were fleeting and upon settling for high school the Gay Straight Alliance club was extremely small so coming to Cal provided a great sense of community and belonging. The summer before my first fall semester, I took a few classes to get a feel for the campus which ended up coinciding with Obergefell v. Hodges and SF gay pride which is where I made a lot of friends. Whether it is going for drinks in the Castro, dressing up for the Folsom street fair or going to social events at Oscar Wilde, Cal has provided an amazing sense of acceptance and a safe space. During the spring semester, I preformed

  • Personal Narrative: My Identity In Rio Grande Valley

    283 Words  | 2 Pages

    Growing up, I never believed I had an identity. When I delve back to my earliest of memories, both English and Spanish made an appearance in my dialogue. Because my life had always remained constrained in a blend of American and Mexican culture, it was difficult to distinguish exactly which group I resonated most with. Here in the Rio Grande Valley, it is an internal war that is fought constantly. Whoever could predominantly show their Mexican heritage would be held at a great regard for not neglecting their roots.

    For some odd reason I have at all times wanted to be near a desert or spacious land unlike Miami and that’s why this picture really has an essential meaning to myself. This photo was taken by Ansel Adams back in 1960; a long deserted road fading away in the distance in between a pair of mountains in the Nevada desert with a never-ending impression is what the first thing the majority of people would say on their first glance and analysis of this photo. Because of the fact that this is most likely a road leading to Las Vegas, which was a major trendy city back in 1960, attracting many people from all over especially from close by, making it one of the prominent destinations for an incredible experience.
