[I][FONT="Garamond"][COLOR="Thistle"]¶So Saturday, I went to a theme park with a friends and sister. Roller coasters are not my thing, I get so paranoid. I suppose theme parks in general really aren't my thing. After all, they are made to throw your body around in dangerous ways, right?
Well, In the end it really wasn't a wonderful day, it got better as it went, then took a bad dip again. It was really hot, for one. And you had to wait fifteen to forty-five minutes in line. We didn't have water at first and the heat upset my stomach. Then I waited while the two daredevils went on some other rides while I ran to the bathroom every half hour. Which also had amazingly long lines.
Then we went into the water areas, it was much better, and fun. There was a wave creation pool that was great to go to the deep end and swim against them. Then we ate. Terrible hamburgers, delicious fries. They know where to put the cooks, hehe...
I was going to go on a water slide, but changed my mind seeing just the height of the stairs. I mean, seriously, what if you flew off the slide? Splat. Thats what. Then sirens in the distance. Anyway, As I was going to go on a had my friend hold a bracelet in his pocket, as I didn't want it to hook on something and snap. I forgot to get it back before I went back down... It would have been fine but As Im sure you have assumed, the bracelet got lost. Once I had asked him maybe five minutes after, we returned to the base of the slides where the lifeguard was about to give it to us, -as she had found it- to find someone had stolen it! I can't believe people... A good friend had made it for me... Well, I personally spent the rest of the day looking at everybody's wrists.
Afterwards we went to the gift shop and found half our money was missing. Strange stuff. However we didn't really care. Heh, its just money. Well, there were these Voodoo Pals things, and they each did something different, and where made different. Ever heard of them? Well, we all agreed to get one each, and wear them on our schoolbags this year. I myself think it doesn't seem right. I mean, not the 'lets all have related things to remember this' but, the whole voodoo part. They actually are supposed to do good, but, really it just freaks me out. I mean, it seems to go against my religious beliefs, but usually that doesn't matter to me. But I guess the real problem I have is I am terrified of anything to do with spirits- demons, ghosts, you name it. A 'Made in China' logo has never been so comforting.[/COLOR][/FONT][/I]
