I don’t really have a big event that shaped me as a person but now I know where to go if I ever get lost in Las Vegas. When I was little we would always use to visit my relatives that lived in Vegas. We’d usually either stay at the house or do something or we’d go to the casino. I remember I was 9 years old; my older cousins took me to the arcade in the casino. The Arcade was pretty big then from what I remember plus really loud. My cousins all ran off in different directions leaving me with my cousin Eric; at the time he was to occupied playing some racing game and beating other kids at games to watch me so I wondered off out in the arcade for a while looking for my other cousins. When I came back to where my cousin was he was gone and so where the others. They didn’t bother looking for me and they just left. Soon after I found out they were with our parents soon after and they got in trouble for coming back without me. So I wondered off into the casino looking for a security guard crying because they left me there by myself in the arcade. This has shaped my life to never wonder off and I also learned a good quality of learning to find my way to places that I need to go to, or when I need to find someone I know.

Proper reading habits are different for most people. For me I enjoy reading, but for other they may not like it, or they might just do the minimum reading required for like school. My strength while reading a book would be imagining it in my head ad it happens in the book, also learned how to pick out important parts in the book when I need it an assignment from one of my teachers in high school. It’s like having a movie theater in your head; you get to pick the actors. But when I was little I was encouraged to read a lot by my mom she’d always read to me then have me read it to her after a week that I have practiced it, and I didn’t like the reading back to her part. Back then I didn’t like reading all so much because I was slow at it and it found it boring. When I was in elementary school I had reading help because I was a slow reader but now I can read just fine because the teachers there helped me a lot and I became faster while reading but I do get distracted from reading fairly easily when it’s a book that’s not interesting to me. The people I know who like reading the most would be my two sisters. They have a lot of books that when I needed one for school they had it already. It was cool because I didn’t have to go out and buy it, or borrow it from a library.
