Went out during syllabus week to celebrate the beginning of the school year! I had so much fun just hanging out with my friends and dancing with them!
This summer I got the opportunity to conquer not one, but two huge fears of mine! Fear #1 that was conquered was heights! I got to do my schools challenge course, and part of it was climbing up this huge pole that 32 feet high and jumping off. I was petrified. I was shaking the entire time I did it! But when the time came, I made the leap!
Fear #2 that was conquered was my fear of certain roller coasters! I went to Silverwood and got to go on Aftershock! This is what Silverwood's website says about Aftershock, "This metal monster dominates the skies over Silverwood. At 191 feet, this beast is really two thrills in one because not only does it take you forwards through a cobra roll and inverted loop, but backwards as well! Once you board, the cars will slowly move backwards up the starting tower until you’re staring straight at the ground. Then gravity will take over and pull you straight down as you reach speeds of up to 65 miles per hour! You’ll twist and turn though mind-blowing loops and rolls until you reach the second tower. This time, you’ll be looking at the sky as the coaster pulls you upward at a 90-degree angle, only to release and send you barreling through the whole thing backwards!" It was intense. It was scary. But I would totally do it again! |
