We went to a little bb3s in the airport and got some chicken. It took a while but our plane was here as they started calling out the seats I got a pit in my stomach. My head ached and I could barely talk, and all that food I just ate was starting to come up. As the flight attendant called are group my knees shook as I took every step wobbling like a bobble head. As I take my first step in the plane my hands start to shake. Then I realized that I was being a coward, if a little baby could do it I thought while looking at my baby brother Braydan than I can do it. It took forever to get everyone to get on the airplane, but as I waited I started to think about the last time I was on a airplane. I was sitting next to my big brother Jaylan and he was watching a movie on his phone. He gave me one of the headphones that was connected to his phone. The movie was called Friday and it was very funny. When the plane took off I was really scared about my ears popping Jaylan trying to calm me down but not even he could do the impossible.

Soon after the plane began to ascend, I felt the pressure rising and looked out the window watching everything get smaller and smaller. The world looked like an ant colony. When the plane leveled out, I continued watching the movie. Time flew by quickly due to all the movies. Around the fifth movie, I started repeating some of the words they were saying and I knew what they meant because of the subtitles.

I begin to get frightened as I turn the corner to a fogged out jail, seeing prisoners banging on the cells, and trying to touch us, but as I turn the next corner, a prisoner comes out of nowhere, and scares me out of my shoes. I fell straight to the ground in shock. My heart suddenly just dropped in fear. My parents began to start laughing hysterically because of my fear. Thankfully, I was able to make it out alive and well, but I was definitely shaken up.

I felt like I was plummeting to my death as the wind whipped all around me. For a brief moment, my body was vertical to the ground and I felt as if we were going to flip into a forward roll. Just at that moment, the cables snapped tight and we went swinging like a pendulum. My eyes were sealed shut. I continued screaming as we swung back and forth several times.
It was all a blur. Next thing I know I feel a sharp pain in my arm. I collapse and land head first. My breathing became hard and heavy. My eyes felt like they couldn’t stay up on their own.

High school grows you into the person you are. I have great memories, good and bad, some learning experiences and some that I’ll take with me the rest of my life.
