Whoosh! The big roller coaster zoomed past me. It was my first time at Six Flags. So far we had rode about six roller coasters and we were waiting in line to ride the Joker.

Before I knew it, we came to a screeching a halt. Once I realized we were stopped, I opened my eyes one by one and attempted to calm down. When the employee finally got to our cart to let us out, I slowly regained my balance and walked over to the nearest bench to sit down and rest. My heart was still pounding a mile a minute in my chest. And I felt as if I was invincible with the rush of adrenaline still pumping through my body.
