My Roller Coaster Ride

I felt nervous when my sisters and I went to six flags and was actually going to ride all the roller coasters. I was mostly nervous for the tallest ride which is Goliath. I was terrified. We ended up going on that one first. We got in the long line, and I try not to think about it too much, so that I won’t chicken out. We finally get to the front of the line, and wait for the next cart to come. We get in the cart and locked in. The cart slowly starts moving. We start to go up the hill and I immediately stat to regret getting on. When we reached the top I could see everything, even the city. My sisters hands shoots up, but I hold on as tight as possible not letting go. They tell me to put them up but I don’t listen. During the ride all I heard

    It has consumed my thoughts whenever I go to a fair or amusement park for a day that should be filled to the brim of thrill-intensive joy. This fear led to my ever-growing terror of heights as well. Whenever I look at a roller coaster, I’m filled with a terrible foreboding, and thoughts of the car departing from its tracks and taking an unforeseen trip of its own towards the hard concrete below flood my mind like a Japanese tsunami. I cringe when I come close to the end of the line to get on a ride, whether it be at Darien Lake, Six Flags, or Hershey Park. When I’m nestled in the car, I always make sure to double check with the attendant that I’m securely in place.…

    I remember the countdown of the operator taking forever to get to one. As soon as the ride made its take off, all fear that I had evaporated and a smile was immediately placed upon my face.
