Day 148: I can't get enough of Vegas! But then again I'm so sick of it! It's a love/hate thing... (Pictures)

http://daysofj.blogspot.com

So these past 2 weekends in a row, I've been partying hard in the biggest party city in the USA, Sin City! (AKA Las Vegas!!) You can call me crazy, but I just call it living it up. We are only young once right? =P

"Livin young, and wild, and free" is the motto, only if you can handle it.

I'm no gambling addict or anything, but you can make a trip to Vegas all paid for as long as you play your cards right. That's the fun part about going to Vegas because if you're up alot of $ then its like a free trip, which is why I was able to go back-to-back weekends =D

It's all about betting big at the right moments. Go BIG or go HOME!

Here are some scenic pictures I took during my time in Vegas both weekends:






As much fun as I had in Vegas, I need to recover my mind & body so I think ima chill off Vegas for a while... just a few months maybe? =X

Day 69: I Put On For The City! (Pics)

I'm a bit tired today so I'll just share some pictures I took while I was venturing in the city of Frisco last week when I was back visiting the Bay Area. Here are just a few:

- Haight & Ashbury: Famous for the hippie movement and there are some cool urban shops here

- Niketown SF > Niketown LA. Soo much better if you ask me

- City nights..

Bright lights..

All of the lights, all of the lights! Good night SF!

Man, it was soo freakin cold in the Bay but I felt soo relaxed being at home that the freezing weather was nothing to me (well just for a few days, haha!). Being in the Bay is definitely a change of pace than being in LA, and the air is so much fresher up there too.. so much fresher.

Maybe one day I'll move up there.. one of these days...

Day 39: Vegas baby Vegas! (Pics)

http://daysofj.blogspot.com

This past weekend I went to Las Vegas, NV aka "Sin City" aka "free trip if you play your cards right", and man I had an awesome time over there!

I did have some downs and lost $300 the first night from drunk gambling (never again, lesson learned!), but overall I came up! My game of choice is Baccarat, so the next day I focused my good-will & strategy and was able to work the baccarat table I was playing at, eventually turning $100 into $700!! My goal next time is to turn it into $1,000 in one sitting, and I know I can do it. =D

I love to party and socialize, so my friends and I decided to check out Club XS @ Encore the last night, which is visually one of the sickest clubs there. This club is the most popular place to party at these days and always gets super packed. If you don't get bottle/table service then you're going to have to wait forever in line just to get in. If you want to skip the line then you can always pay off the bouncer since money makes the world go round in Vegas.

Here are a few good pictures I took during my trip (I wish I could of taken more, but I was either too drunk, occupied, or forgot my camera):
