Personal Narrative: The Volcano Ride

Decent Essays
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 and I said it wasn’t as bad as I thought and I actually like it. Then we went on to ride the Volcano ride, I wasn’t as scared anymore and I enjoyed it the ride. At the end of the ride, everybody asked me again if I’m still scared, I said no and that I really enjoyed all the ride so far. I regretted everything I have said, right

    People always say those same old sayings that everyone knows; something about life being a rollercoaster or the one about sticks and stones having something to do with breaking you. I know the sayings and I’ve heard the metaphors, but it never really seems to fix anything. In my life however I can perfectly align that saying about the sticks and stones and that simile with the rollercoaster to where I am and who I am today. From a young age I knew I was more seclusive, more shy than the others.…
