“Welcome to the superman. Dramatic music plays. Please watch your step as you board the ride.” I am so reluctant to do this, I think. My brother looks over his shoulder. “How nervous are you?” he asks. “Only a little!” I say. Really I am just pretty excited. All day we have been walking around riding on roller coasters. Just as we were about to leave Six Flags, my dad asked us if we wanted to go on the superman ride. Initially, I did not even consider this as an option. Generally, bigger roller coasters similar to Goliath and Raging Bull aren’t very fun to me. However, small roller coasters with loops and twists generally entertain me a lot. Thinking back, it wasn’t even my decisions that made me reluctant to ride the roller coaster. It was my mom’s. It was the only ride in the entire park that she disliked. Usually I have similar opinions to her, so this really influenced me. I snap back into focus after hearing the voices of the people around me.

The screams blend in with the noises from the other coasters as we screech down the track toward the loop. I feel my stomach drop out from under me as we zoom through the coaster. There it is! I think. The finish! Whew! The drop is finally over! Momentum from the drop slings our car up the track and in a straight line toward the loop. “Oh, my, gosh!” my brother says. Within a second we had gone from shooting along the track like we were flying to laying on our back with the car below us. Once again, my stomach was out from under me as we plummet towards the extremely fast approaching ground. At the last second, the car follows the track, as we knew it would. This sequence whizzed us through the loop and back up towards the core of the roller coaster. I can’t believe how awesome this
