Friday the 13th

Hello, my dear  followers!

I could not resist the opportunity of posting on Friday the 13th. This is one of my favorite superstitious days, because… well. I happen to love to think about the possibilities of the pranks that can be pulled on this day!

This is going to be an EXTREMELY short post, so I hope you don’t frown upon me. I’m sorry! I’m a bit busy with the AP U.S. homework right now… the schedule did not go according to plan.

I will be updating you all next week on what happens during the Studio sessions! I’m very excited for this year. And then, of course… there will be Disney!

I have one topic to talk about today… the fair!

I went to the fair with my best friend on Wednesday. It was so much fun… haha, even though that sounds cliche. ;)

We wandered around, just having a fun time looking at things that people were selling. Andrea loved seeing the cows and calves, and I loved seeing the horses and rabbits. We also saw chicken, roosters, geese, pigs, and sheep.

I love the fair, because of the rides that we get to go on! We ate the normal fair meal… hot dogs, snow cones, and root beer floats.

My two favorite carnival rides are the swings and the Himalaya. If you don’t know what these are… you must have been deprived in your childhood. :(

The swings are rows of…well, swings, suspended from chains. They’re on this… ride that gets taller and spins the swings out, so you’re flying sideways. It’s so much fun!

The Himalaya is a ride of interconnected sleds. It features a really cheesy snow background, and you race around the track really fast, both forwards and backwards. At the time we went on the ride, the operators let us ride two times in a row! That was awesome.

I also love the Ferris wheel, cause, well, you’re 150 feet up into the air! We were able to look down on all of the flashing and twinkling lights… and it just looks so pretty.

There were two interesting rides we didn’t get to go on. One featured human sized plastic beach balls. You go inside a deflated one, and they fill it up with air. Then, you float and roll around in a pool! It looked like so much fun, but $2 per ride only satisfies you for a little bit, before you realize it’s kind of expensive.

The other ride featured the passenger strapped on their stomach. They then flew up and down in hang gliders! I thought it looked AWESOME, but the tummy might hurt a little afterwards…

Oh, yeah. And did I forget to mention the dreaded Rok N Rol? If you haven’t gone on this ride, you are such a lucky person. It features being strapped in a hamster cage. Then, you are SUPPOSED to be rolled around, attached to another mechanism that spins you around. Yeah, well. Our carriage was having techincal difficulties when we rode it. So, it spun us around all right… but. It was so great, that we would roll upwards for about five seconds before we’d be spun around upside down again. Which resulted in us being upside down on our heads for the majority of the ride.

Fun.

Well, now, as I relive that headache, I should say adios! Happy Friday the 13th!

Lots of ♥,
