Yesterday i got to spend sometime with my boyfriend and what would of been a hike and a picnic turned out to be an awesome fun adventure at Lagoon. His dad's work was having a party at Lagoon and he had 4 tickets available. Now i never been on a roller coaster in my life. My fear of heights just keeps me away from them and well yesterday my goal was accomplished i got to ride my first roller coaster. I wasn't talking myself out of the rides until the rocket and cannibal that's when i started talking my way out of riding the rides. My supportive loving boyfriend encouraged me that i could do it. He even would hide me from looking at the rocket so i wouldn't get more scared of it. I was watching it as it would shoot up and shoot back down. He just kept hugging me and keeping me calm from being afraid. And what do i know i find myself on the rocket ride next to him and he was holding my hand for awhile and i let go of his hand cause i wanted to hold onto the bar. That wasn't so bad after all and before i knew it we were at the bottom. He was helping push me out of my comfort zone and trying new things and we succeed at that. We went on another ride where they have two people sharing so i got to sit in his lap on that ride and than we took a nice lovely relaxing ride up over Lagoon. and before i knew it after that ride we went right for the cannibal. I'll admit i was terrified i didn't want to ride it and i wasn't ready i wasn't sure i could handle that ride. My boyfriend was trying to calm me down and i don't know if its cause so much to take in at once all this adrenaline going through my body and the excitement of having fun riding these rides all the sudden after that i got emotional and started crying and confused cause i didn't want to ride the ride yet i knew someday i would have to face my fear of riding it and that chance might as well be now not later. I don't know why all the sudden i got all emotional over a simple ride and one word.
This is the cannibal ride at Lagoon. We had front row seats so i had the chance to see the full drop down. My awesome boyfriend after the drop was being all cute and he leaned over kissing my head and i must admit i screamed and smiled and had one big smile once we were done with the ride. :) by the end of the night we went on two different rides and left after riding the roller coaster ride Lagoon's first roller coaster. :)
My boyfriend is proud of me and i'm proud of myself for accomplishing a big goal in my life that i never thought i would never ever do in my life. Now next time i can ride this without freaking out so bad. We even got to spend some much needed alone time with each other before we went and had fun. The cannibal will be one ride i will remember for the rest of my life.We pretty much had one awesome day yesterday. :)
