Six Flags!

I pretty much got a day off from school today. My school has these “reward field-trips” at the end of the school year for the kids who are passing and exhibit good behavior. Apparently, I managed to fit into those eligibility requirements. The 6^th graders got to go to an arcade called Adventure Landing, which is lame; the 7^th graders got to go to a Renaissance festival called Scarborough Faire, which is pretty cool; and the 8^th graders go to Six Flags!

We were so fortunate to arrive there on the buses before Six Flags would open! Everyone there stood at the gates, anticipating to run in. My group consisted of Tiffany, Nancy, Mary, Jacob and I. At the Six Flags we went to, there was a new ride called the Tony Hawk’s Big Spin, so we wanted to be the first ones to ride that. Fortunately, we did.

The whole morning just kicked ass because a lot of the roller coasters barely had anyone waiting in line. It was pretty amazing. Later on in the day, when the coasters started to get packed with people, we went to the little kiddy rides.

There was this log-ride with a name I can’t remember. The ride itself was just supposed to be a smooth log ride on a stream. It didn’t have any major splashes that you would get yourself soaking wet in. So you know what my group did? We spent the whole time splashing ourselves! loooooool. It was funny.

There was also this tea-cup ride. It is a ride that consists of tea-cups that would spin you on this circular track. Inside each tea-cup are turning wheels so people can control the spin of the cup. While we were on the ride, we spun it as fast as we can! We turned a little kiddy ride into a roller coaster. Haha.

Overall, the day was great. I had so much fun, if I had another chance to do it again, I wouldn’t change a thing. But if I had to change something, I’d change the leaving-time. We had to leave at 6 pm.
