Go through and make sure any flight in the records that landed at 2 points was counted. Still not enough and you may be looking at some sort of time building project, ferry, or CFI work. I had to do a C152 time building project to get mine up towards the end.

Get 3 of you buddies together, rent a 172 for ROAD TRIP to Las Vegas!
Do this every Friday night, for about two months.
Make them pay for the airplane, or at least split it 4 ways.
That's how I paid for my cross country hours when I was 18 in college, but instead of Las Vegas, it was for an overnight to an all girls college to visit my girlfriend, so I pimped out her girlfriends, and I never had trouble filling the airplane with willing participants.
