My goal this year was to travel more often and I definitely did my fair share, over the span of 5 months, I went to like 3 different states. That doesn't sound like much but I usually only travel once a year.. I just thought I'd share with you my experience in Las Vegas, Nevada from this past week! ♥
[ WARNING!! This is going to be a long post, but it has a lot of pictures so you guys can scroll through and look at the pictures if you want! ]
I've been planning this trip for about 5 months with a few friends of mine because we wanted to see Big Bang for their North American 'MADE Tour' this year! I missed Big Bang back in 2012 when they did their 'Alive Tour' and I regretted it ever since, so I couldn't miss out this time around.
At this time, I just got back from seeing Epik High in Los Angeles in May & Big Bang announced their North American Tour so instead of going to LA again, I decided that I wanted to see them in Vegas! I've been to Vegas before, but this was my first time going as a LEGAL adult!! So I was wanting to go to turn upppppppp but I didn't get to do much of that.. Oh well! It was still fun nonetheless.
We stayed at the Palazzo hotel on the Strip and it was right next to the Venetian so we did some sight seeing ((you know, typical tourist-y type stuff )). It was absolutely beautiful! It was like something out of a movie, hella romantic if you ask me. It was a a perfect day to spend with awesome people! Now I'm about to spam pictures of some of the food we had so wipe yourself off because I can already see you drooling hehe.
DRANKS DRANKS DRANKS DRANKS!!!! Everyone I know told me to get a Fat Tuesday while I was there, I guess this is close enough.. I don't like drinking while I'm walking about in public. So I stuck to something small. Gin & Juice from Evening Call was freakin' bomb. It wasn't strong at all and it just tastes like an Icee. So if you don't know me personally, I really love bubble tea and if I could drink it all day, I probably would but I'd be broke.. Literally I had boba 3 times out of the 4 days I was there. Kung Fu Tea, Crazy Crepes, and Tea Station were all the places I went to and they were all A+++!

As you can see, I took a lot of pictures of the food we had while we were there and man, I'm already missing how good we ate over there... So enjoy the beautiful food porn pictures I took !

My wallet is sad because I spent all my money on the food... and all the clothes I bought. I didn't take pictures of all the stuff I got but trust me, I got a lot of stuff. I posted most of my shopping trips on snapchat and stuff so I don't have that many pictures so please bare with me.

So here's the moment of truth, the reason why I even came to Vegas was to go see Big Bang for their North American 'MADE Tour' and it definitely was the highlight of my year. I'll post all the pictures I have but honestly, I didn't take as much as I thought I would just because the concert was something I wanted to experience fully and just immerse myself in the energy of the crowd, to forget my worries basically.. I might just post a montage of all the footage I have on my phone that I filmed because most of them are short clips saved from snapchat.. and stopped due to hardcore fan girling.
( I took most of these pictures of them being shown on the screen because to the naked eye, the screens were crystal clear but on photos, they look pixel-y and I apologize deeply )

GD is my bias, but I got way more pictures of Taeyang.. I think it's because my boyfriend likes Taeyang so I took hella pictures so I can send to him HAHAHA. Wish I got more pictures of all the members, I didn't even get one of Daesung.. OH WELL there's no use in crying over spilled milk. There's plenty on the internet heheh.
My friends and I actually saw Daesung in a restaurant we were eating at. We were literally 10 ft away from him but the manager and coordinators were there so they were super strict about taking pictures. It was super surreal to be that close.. I might sound stupid but Big Bang was a very early influence on me when I was younger, I started liking them since middle school about in 2006 or so. GD has always been my ultimate bias and he's someone I respect so much. Pushing the limits and comfort zones of typical k-pop and the music scene in general.
Seeing them really made me feel like there is something in my life that satisfied me in a way that I didn't think was possible, it like triggered something in me. As lame as that sounds.. I'm also suffering from post concert depression currently and I miss them a lot. I'm just really happy that I got to see them when I got the chance :)
Also wanted to thank my friends for accompanying me on this trip! I wouldn't have had as much fun as I did without them. Let's do this again soon !!

THANKS FOR STICKING AROUND EVEN IF YOU DIDN'T READ A SINGLE WORD OF THIS POST! SEE YA ♥
