Personal Narrative: My Roller Coaster Ride
It was a hot, summer, morning, and my mom my sister and I were on our way to Cedar Point. I was so excited, I couldn't sit still. We were in my mom's green Camry, so I kept hitting the doors! While sitting in the car, my sister was exclaiming how cool the rides were, she told me her favorite one was the dragster. I had a queasy feeling when she told me what the dragster was, but I ignored it.
As I looked out the window I could see the big roller coasters haunting me from the highest peaks. When we first got there, I saw one ride I wanted to go on first, the Gatekeeper. It was the first big roller coaster I went on since I went on the roller coasters in Hershey Park. I heard my mom say, “What ride do you guys want to go on next?” My sister

My mom asked the rollercoaster lady if she could get her money and phone from my sister. So the lady went over the tracks, that seemed like a bottomless pit of darkness staring into your soul, and got my moms money. I saw a frozen lemonade stand and I immediately said, in a shaky voice, “There is a frozen lemonade stand over there mom, can I get it?”
“Of course you can,” my mom said in an anxious tone.
When my sister got off the ride, I said, in a queasy voice, “Can we go get something to eat now?”
My sister said, “Yes please.” So, After my sister was done we went to get dinner cause I was starving. So we got pizza at some kind of western place they had there and Dippin Dots from a stand almost right in the middle of the park.
The last ride we went on was them Mine Ride after eating pizza for dinner. That was the worst choice that I made. EVER. Before my sister and I went on the ride the person had thrown up on the cart before us, and I was worried about throwing up my dinner. I swallowed hard as the rickety cart came into the old, rickety, torn down house. As soon as we got onto the ride, the man in front of us exclaimed,
”I am glad we didn't eat before we went on this

    As we reached the top of the hill, I could see the whole park, from the bumper cars to the merry-go-round. All of a sudden, I feel the gravity shift and the roller coaster is now going down the hill the wind is hitting my face and screams are coming from everywhere. I realize something though, I realize that I’m actually smiling and having fun. I could not stop smiling, being on that roller coaster was probably one of the most thrilling moments of my life. After each hill and turn my excitement grew more until we finally reached the end of the track. After that ride, my mind was blown I could not believe how much fun I’ve missed out all these years. This whole time I was thinking how going on this ride could be detrimental to me, but instead it had a positive effect, I was no longer afraid of roller coasters. After I finally get off of the ride I wanted relive the experience again, so I decided to go back in line and get on The Goliath one more time. I felt really accomplished that day knowing I had finally overcome my biggest fear and couldn’t believe how fun riding a roller coaster could be. To this day I still love riding roller…

    It was a hot summer day in 2010. My sisters, my parents and I were on our way to Canada's Wonderland. my youngest sister loves to talk about everything especially when it comes to something she is very excited about. The "are we there yet?" and "hurry up i am bored sitting back here" get really annoying after a while. the one subject she would not stop talking about, was how much she wanted to go on the roller coasters. I felt my stomach start to ache as she said the "r" word." My friend Cassidy said she liked the big roller coaster there" she mentioned so excitedly. I was definitely not interested in that particular subject. After our 1 hour drive of sitting in a crowded truck with my two annoying sisters we arrived at Canada's Wonderland. i looked up and i could see the top of the roller coaster. It looked to be getting taller and taller the more i looked at it.my mom got me my wrist band and we walked into the park. there were people everywhere and lines as long as the Great Wall of China. well in my eyes they looked that long.

    We went on the crate was pumped. I was ready to go. I made it a point that I HAVE to be in the first seats. Me and my Dad pushed and moved people, and I admit, that was not very nice. But still, our goal was the first seat. We quickly ran to the manager of the ride and asked him for the first seats. Luckily the people in the first seats had a child who was too small to ride so we had been gifted the front seats. I was soooooo ready to go down huge slides. When we were slowly moving some people started booing. I heard mumble, “ This sucks”. All I did was wait till the…
