Personal Narrative: My Journey To Six Flags
I remember the day vividly: the sizzling of food frying, children yelling, my tears running, it was the first time I adventured to Six Flags. The uneasiness of my stomach while swaying tens of feet from the ground on the Texas Giant petrified the adventurous spirit out of me. However, I did not realize that moment `would shape the next eight years of life, emerging in my memory at every unfamiliar experience I faced. It was my senior year when I declined an invitation to go camping with my friends an epiphany struck me. How many of these opportunities was I going to skip out on due to my reluctant manner?
My understanding of how I define myself has changed since that day transforming from a timid, reticent individual into a gallant, gregarious

I couldn’t wait to ride the rides, so when my uncle got here I raced into his car and off we went to the Knott’s Berry Farm. When we arrived, we immediately decided to aim for finishing all the rides. Most of the lines for the rides were very intimidating. To the point where we were questioning ourselves will this really be worth it? Most of the rides we waited in had a queue of 1 to 2 hours but the rides were definitely worth it even if they were just 1 to 2 minutes. In return for the queue, the rides always kept me occupies with the accelerations, drops, and loops!

    The mechanical chairs were going up, 100ft in the air we were ready for our stomachs to drop to our feet, adrenaline pumping. Then all of the sudden we were in a situation; death or survival? On one normal day of school my friends and I (Bri, Keishon, Chaniece, and Datasia) were sitting at the lunch table eating our food. Then Bri brought up the idea that we should all take a road trip to Six Flags. Keishon agreed, “sounds like a good idea to me.” Everybody else then agreed with Bri that it was a good idea. After school we all decided to meet at Bri’s house after we had packed our stuff. We decided that we were going to get a hotel there and go out to eat after leaving Six Flags. From the other room Datasia yelled, “Are you guys ready?” We…

    I remembered a day, a day of life changing. A day my conscious-self broke into freedom. A day prejudgment and prejudice no longer existed. A day many people who were traumatized by words like swords pray for it to come. A day I was saved by the purist smile of a little angel. Behold, the story I am about to tell is not just a fiction tale crafted by my imagination but an experience of my own which I will remember forever.…

    I was born in Scottsdale, Arizona on March 15th, 1999. I lived in Arizona until I was five years old. My brother Ben is two years older than me which is the perfect age difference to create competition between us. When Ben found something new to do, I had to do it too. It didn’t matter that I just turned three years old, I had to ride my bike without training wheels because Ben just did. Now I can’t remember exactly what I thought watching him do this, but I can assume I wanted to be like him. So when my dad was done helping Ben, I asked to have my training wheels taken off so that I could give it a try. Reluctantly, my dad did and when we got to the top of the hill he gave me a push to start and I ended up losing control and crashing into a cactus. Even with that initial bad experience of riding without training wheels, I still wanted to be like my brother. This admiration quickly had me riding a loop around my house daily so as to improve my skills.…

When we first got off of the plane, it was around ten o'clock and we were all tired from traveling the whole day. I quickly went into my room and fell asleep and waited for the morning to come.
