Today, I want to talk about my experience of riding roller coasters and then present to you my list of favorite pop songs/artist.
There are a few people out there who knows that I am not a fan of roller coasters at all. This experience may have been probably ruined by my first ever ride at Six Flag's Great America. I was about 12(in 2003) and was there with a group of friends. I had never ridden one before, not even a smaller one to get to know the feelings. This was probably a mistake of mine, because I was peer pressured into riding the "Vertical Velocity" as my very first ride. As many of you know, that is a very intense ride even for people who have been riding roller coasters for a while. So the feelings you receive are about 100x(okay maybe a little exaggerated) more, when it's your first time.
Since I did not know at all what it was like, I just went on to the coaster, sat down and waiting patiently for the machine to start. Of course my heart was racing and I panicking, but I didn't know what to expect. Then randomly it shoots you forward from 0-70 mph, within 4 seconds. The first drop happens, then backwards and forwards and backwards with lots of free fall. This website explains it in much better detail than I can. https://www.sixflags.com/greatamerica/attractions/vertical-velocity
Here is a Point of View Video too.
I would be a long long while before I have been able to ride roller coasters again. I do certainly love the concept and designs of them, but have not been fully needing to go on them.
After my first experience, I have visited Six flag's Great America many time after, but just have done the smaller rides. Senior Year of High School, I finally was able to go on the American Eagle. Which surprisingly was not bad at all. That one I could do multiple times. This meant for me, that I just needed to try out more rides that were more suited for me, and also trump my first experience.
In 2013, I had the opportunity to go with one of my friend to Six Flags again. It was for an event called Out in the Park. During that time frame, it was also a time where I was working on trying new things in life, and do something different. So I decided to try out roller coasters again. My friend can attest to you, that it took some alcohol and LOTS of peer pressure to finally be able to get me on my first one, but it happened, and the rest is history from there.
With the little time we had, I went on the most Roller Coaster rides ever! Here is the list of what I finally went on.
Little dipper
Rajin Cajun
American eagle blue backwards
American eagle red forwards
X flight
Viper
Superman.
These all make the Vertical Velocity experience not so bad anymore.
In 2014, I also went on some more smaller but intense roller coaster at the State Fair in Milwaukee. It was with a different friend, but she can attest that it took some peer pressure, but not as much as it was with my other friend. lol. These smaller rides all have different thrill elements to them.
It certainly have been a lot of up, downs and free falling for me to go on roller coasters, but I am glad I have gone on them today.
What do you think about roller Coaster? What are you favorites? Let me know what you think.
Okay now on to my next list of songs, These are my favorite pop songs and singers out there.
Many of you know them really well. So I won't have to say much about these.
