Happiest Place on Earth... not always so happy

So Thursday and Friday was our Grad Nite trip. We started by driving about 6 1/2 hours or so to "Newport Beach" it was basically a lake that had painful sand to walk on. Although it wasnt what we excpected it was lots of fun and made for some great memories. Afterwards we went go kart racing then it was off to "the happiest place on earth". We started off waiting in line for quite some time waiting for the rides to open. First it was Space Mountain a 1 hour wait. I had never been on a roller coaster so it was an extra hour for me to get even more scared I just closed my eyes and held Mels hand. While waiting in line I got a paper cut on my disneyland ticket. After that we went on the Jungle Cruise a cheesy ride that had no line so we got on right away after riding we understood why there was no line. Next was Indiana Jones a ride I was scared to go on due to when I went on it when I was nine I cried and hated it. This time I though it was pretty fun though and this time it was melissa holding my hand with her eyes closed with fear she was gonna fly out. That too was an hour wait. Next it was the Thunder mountain roller coaster but we didnt want to go on that one so mel and i went on the teacups twice where we got our pic taken by a couple of nerds. Then steph finally persuaded us to go on the Thunder mountain train so we went and then she wanted to go again so once again we did that. After it was 5 and it was time to go finally. I had lots of fun and was thankful for my friends for making me go on the rides. On the way home everyone slept except me of course and we watched hairspray and more of The Office thanks to AVG for bringing it. I had lots of fun and was so glad I went. I have eight more days till graduation Im excited but still very sad because I have to leave the kids who are like brothers and sisters to me in some ways. Ive been with them for thirteen years and now I'll probably never see them again. So despite not seeing gini all and all it was a good trip.
