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.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
