A few years ago, on a class trip, my friends had asked me to ride at least one roller coaster. It was not a large roller coaster, but it made me queasy just looking at it. I was confident that I would be able to go on and enjoy the experience. My confidence quickly evaporated when we began climbing up the roller coaster’s first hill. The ride dropped, and I was screaming so loudly that I could only hear myself.…
The Never Ending Rollercoaster As my friends and I pass by store to store we had realized that there was a bright red flyers. It had caught our eye, we went and grabbed a flyer and it had said “Ladies and Gentlemen there is going to be a new rollercoaster opening up this Saturday! Come and join the ride!” My friends had said that they wanted to go and check out the rollercoaster.…
My friend, Odina, was laughing beside me the whole time; she did not know how worried and anxious I was about this devastating rollercoaster. It is called the Iron Rattler, and it stood at a height of one hundred-eighty feet tall. The other passengers were energized with excitement, anxiety, and fear. I felt uncomfortable getting on the rollercoaster because I thought I was going to die. I thought maybe the rollercoaster would fall…
BEEP, BEEEEP, BEEEP!!!!!! My clock goes off. My dad walks into my room to tell me we are leaving for Wisconsin Dells. As dad tells me I said, ¨Oh ok, pack my stuff, I am going back to bed. He left the room.…
Sit back, buckle up, and get ready to scream because I love roller coasters. My family and I go to Cedar Point about every month in the summer, and my dad and I go and ride everything in the park. It is just so fun! The one thing I really like about roller coasters is that there are little rides for the youth kids also. My least favorite thing is when I am not tall enough to enjoy a ride, which doesn’t really occur anymore.…
We went to Kings Dominion yesterday and it was really fun. I’m scared of height, so I never really ride anything, but yesterday my friends force me on the Domination ride, it was one of those big roller coasters. I keep on telling them I can’t ride it and I’m really scared, but everybody just ignores me while they dragged by my arms and the other pushes me from behind to get on. Once we got down, they asked how was it…
Happiness Is Not Found on a Roller Coaster “Second thoughts? Too late. Get ready to scream!” The booming voice said over the speakers. Everyone around new this meant another car was about to take off for an intense ride on the timeless roller coaster, California Screamin'.…
Normally I don't do anything on Labor Day weekend. I usually just stay at the house with my family, however; this Labor Day weekend I went to Six Flags for the first time in years with my best friend. After school Friday, we headed to Illinois. We stayed at a water park hotel? I'm not completely sure what it technically called.…
Kings Island One day in the Summer, I went to Kings Island with my friends. We went on many rides and finally came to the Vortex. I had never been on the Vortex before because this was the first time we had come since I was tall enough. My friends had already ridden it before because they were tall enough. My friend Ryleigh said,” Come on Olivia, it will be fun.”…
They tricked me into going onto X-flight. If you did not know, X-flight is a crazy scary roller coaster that goes fifty five miles per hour as well as having loopty loops and barrel rolls. It was even featured on a show called Insane Coaster Wars in twenty twelve. To a normal person, this seems like a fun and adrenaline pumping ride that you need to go on.…
Exhilarating: a term making one feel very happy, animated, or elated, would be the perfect word to describe what the day had in store for us eager, and jubilant grade 6 students. A thrilled and luminous smile lit up on my enthusiastic face as I ambled on the same rugged, cracked, gray tinted sidewalk that I had sauntered on everyday for a year. The serene, endless sky was the perfect shade of aqua as the light, silky, radiant clouds formed delicate shapes. The sun was glistening with great luminosity. Suddenly I heard someone screaming my name well not really; it was my nickname, one that really agitated me in an incredibly obnoxious way, “Babikathu wait up”.…
I went to the state fair and I rode almost all the rides. It was so fun. A couple of the rides went upside down. I almost threw up on the one that went upside down.…
I got out of the car, looked up and remembered again the main reason why I hate roller coasters: heights! We got closer and closer to the rides, and with each step my heart pounded faster in my chest and I was shaking all over. All of a sudden, I looked up and was standing face to face with the biggest rollercoaster in the park. My stomach felt like it dropped 50 feet below ground, and I wasn’t even on the ride yet.…
Technology Autobiography During my life time I used a lot of technology and a there has also been a huge advancement in technology over the past two decades. For example computers were created and modernized to fit its growing consumer base, this consumer base including me and my friends. I have used computer since a very young age, learning stuff from my dad since a very young age as well, my dad worked fixing computer for my younger years, and it was always interesting how he got rid of viruses. Adobe Photoshop 5.5 was released in 1999 which I was learning last year in Ms. Stanton’s class.…
Fearnot-Narrative Fear can ruin your life. Fear is just a mentality. Fear can mean different things to people, it can be the difference between someone not exactly loving spiders, and not hating them and someone having a meltdown every time they see a spider. For some people, a fear can be so stressful and life-crippling that they’ll try anything in their power to avoid their fear even if it means staying at home for days at a time. Fear has the power to prevent people from experiencing the joys of life and the best way to lose a fear is to expose yourself to your fear.…
