The Rollercoaster Ride - Campbell Gillis, Green Workshop

When I got on my first rollercoaster ride I realized that it was also an emotional rollercoaster ride. It was a log ride but I thought it was a death ride. I went through the rapids smiling and laughing, I didn’t know what was going to hit me next. But I instantly went up… Slowly I went up. Slowly I went up a conveyor belt.  I’m thinking to myself that the log would fall off the conveyor belt while I was thinking why? Why did I go on this ride? When I was at the summit of the ride we slowly went down. I’m thinking phew. But then in that split second we go streaming down, faster than the speed of light! I’m frightened out of my mind at this point. Until I was off the ride, I didn't feel content. When I got off the ride, I felt content that I was off the ride. I learned a valuable lesson that day, never go on a rollercoaster ride again, even if my life depends on it. That’s why it was also an emotional rollercoaster ride.

  1. The same thing happened to me before! I HATE roller coasters, and I get really scared just by looking at them. I know exactly what your going through, so thats why I can relate to your story so well.

    I thought your story was good. I liked how you described what it felt like going on that ride. I could really picture what was happening in my mind.
