Revenge of the Mummy Is The One and Only Ride That Scared My Family and Me!

I spotted a sign and it said, "This ride goes 40 miles per hour. This ride goes backward, forward, downward, and sideways."

In August 2019, I went to Universal Studios in Orlando, Florida with my family. One ride that we went on was Revenge of the Mummy. My parents wanted to try out the ride. My sisters thought that we should not go on the ride because its speed was forty miles per hour. We believed that my parents could not handle the ride. However, my parents wanted to give it a try.

As we waited in line, my sisters and I could feel our spines tingling in fear. I spotted a sign and it said, "This ride goes 40 miles per hour. This ride goes backward, forward, downward, and sideways." I got shocked that this ride goes backward. That means that the ride will fall backward. I told my mother about it and my mother said not to worry. She believed that the ride will not fall backward. I did not believe her at all!

Then, the time came when it was our turn. We sat down. A woman was there by herself and she sat with my sisters. She told us that the ride is not bad and she understood how we feel. Then, the ride began. I could see and feel the hot flames. Man, those were real fires! Everything was calm at first, but then, the terror began! We were falling fast. We were falling backward and it was just the first drop of the ride. I was right after all! My father hugged me and I screamed on his chest. The rest of my family and the woman were screaming, too. The cycle kept going until the end.

After the ride was over, my sisters and I asked my parents about the ride. My mother said that she does not want to go on the ride again. It was fast-paced and she hit her head when the ride fell backward. My father said, "I got scared." He also did not want to go on this ride again. From that moment forward, Revenge of the Mummy was a ride that we would never forget.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
