..The next day we were getting
I've done many things over the course of the summer. All of these things have been done with my friends or family. It was really fun to spend a lot of time with the people I care about. During the month of June I did a couple of things.…
So we were playing this game, and I kept on losing and losing. Eventually Avery and Colton got bored and went upstairs. The thing is that I stayed downstairs. I am literally so competitive that I stayed in the basement playing that game until late into the night, because I wanted to win so bad. My parents had to actually come downstairs and drag me upstairs in order for me to go to bed.…
Two years ago, my boyfriend and I brought his two daughters to Six Flags Great Adventure in NJ for the first time. We all loved roller coasters, except for the youngest daughter because she had never been on a roller coaster before. I knew that if she did not go on a ride that my boyfriend would have to stay behind her. When we were walking into the park, I continued to tell her that I know she will go on all the roller coasters. She would then respond to me each time with “No I won’t”.…
When I was younger on my twelfth birthday I had been given two options that I would receive as a present. My mother would either take me to Six Flags or she would buy me a mini motorcycle. This was a difficult decision because, although I never been to Six Flags I’ve always wanted a motorcycle. I had asked for a motorcycle the year before but, she said no because it was too dangerous. Still until this day I wonder why she allowed me to get one a year later.…
The Cabin Inside Six Flags "Kalie. Kalie. Kalie. " I said, hitting the pillow on my best friends head. She rolled over and looked at me with a hateful expression.…
Six Flags Last year I decided to go to Mozzeria for my deaf event, and this year I knew that I wanted to do something different. When I heard that Six Flags was devoting a day for the deaf, I marked my calendar because I figured it would be different than the typical restaurant scene. The only problem was that I didn’t want to go alone, and I knew that my mom and sister wouldn’t want to go. I asked Alex if he wanted to go with me and he said he would have to see, he texted me later and said that he would love to go and that his mom could drive us both there.…
I would visit Applebee’s again for several reasons; it is affordable, causal, and the food is really good. As a college student, the first thing that I consider before eating out is how affordable the place is. Compared to Olive Garden, I would say that this restaurant is a lot less formal, less costly, and a lower food quality. Overall, my experience was fun and enjoying because I felt relaxed sitting, laughing, and eating with my friends. When come back next time, I may try a dessert.…
Six Flags Nervous, and excited. That’s how I felt when I first went to Six Flags. I had the time of my life, but something unexpected happened. “Hurry up! We don’t have all day!”…
My Last Soccer Game It was the morning of my last soccer game of the season. I still haven't made my first goal yet so I was determined to that day. As I got out of my car walked through the grass to get to my team and start stretching to prepare for our last game, the smell of wet grass hit me in the face. My soccer cleats began to get wet and sink into the wet muddy grass as I walked.…
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.…
Next we went outside to ride our bikes, and go carts. We were cruising down the street, and we saw a couple of kids in the neighborhood. They asked us if we would like to play kick ball in their backyard, and we said alright cool. The teams were me, Pete and his sister against Jeff, Anthony, and Sarah. At the end of the game the score was really close, but we pulled it out, and won 17 to 19.…
Two thousand five hundred eighty-seven. I could take an eight-hour flight or a casual thirty-seven-hour drive, but no matter what, I am still two thousand five hundred eighty-seven miles away from my home in New Haven, Connecticut. Being a college freshman, trying to juggle class, homework, projects, studying, sleeping, eating, and athletics; finding the travel time to go home is an almost impossible task. Add in the cost of the $600 flights round trip and there is no chance a student can go visit home when they feel a little homesick. I on the other hand had never even fathomed being homesick from the frozen tundra I called home.…
I got put in with most of my friends and our goaly was Miguel. My friend kept on telling me to score lots of goals because the coach had already looked at me and him I had been playing good. There was only one game left till the final game. Miguel kicking the ball from the goal side to the other side of the field and landing right on my feet, I turned around and hit the ball as hard as I could and scored the winning goal. We were off to the finals.…
The clock above my head ticks slowly, the sound ever increasing as the minutes pass by; tick, tick, tick. I normally do not notice the time while I work, usually I am the energizer bunny of workers, in early, out late, always working, but that day was different. I had a date; a first date to be exact. Finally the time has come for me to go home; I step out into the warm Vegas air.…
After 90 minutes of intense soccer the game ended in a draw and taken into penalties. I was assigned the fifth penalty and at that point it was either score or lose. I remember stepping up to the spot and kicking the ball wide as everyone was watching. At that moment I didn't know what to do. I was so ashamed about missing that I did not want to show my face to anyone.…
