The Strip is right there...

So, I'm frustrated. I keep going along trying to be myself, but I have realized in the UNLV dance department you can't be yourslef, there's some sort of mold you have to fit into, and I don't. I'm not into the whole modern thing.  I don't get it, I don't like it, I don't want to do it. Plain and simple I hate it. I'm a dancer because I want to entertain. THAT'S what makes me happy, and makes me feel fulfilled. THAT's why I came to Las Vegas, THE ENTERTAINMENT CAPITAL OF THE WORLD. They try to pretend that we're not right across the street from the flashing neon lights people travel from  all over the world to see. The concerts they put on to me seem to be the Anti-Vegas. They're trying to do the complete opposite of the FABULOUS productions being produced across the street. I have fallen so in love with this city, with every little taste I've gotten of the Vegas Vegas is known for. The Vegas I want. I'm sick of hearing everything I love about Vegas being put down. No, I wasn't born and raised here, so I appreciate the lights, the sign, the showgirls, the Elvis impersonaors, ect. It's fun. I feel like I live in the most exciting city in the world, but UNLV is trying to suck all the excitment out of it.
