As a kid, all the way up to 6th grade, I was deathly afraid of roller-coasters. I remember visiting Holiday World with my family, and I refused to leave the water park because I was too afraid of riding any kind of roller-coaster. But in 6th grade, the entire grade went on a trip to King's Island. Not wanting to be the one kid who wouldn't ride anything, I swallowed my fears and decided to ride the first ride, Invertigo. Now Invertigo isn't super scary, but as a kid who was afraid of everything, it was a big step. Right after the ride, I expected to be paralyzed, but there wasn't anything but the thrill that all roller-coasters love. It was at that moment, I feel in love. One of my greatest fears became one of my greatest thrills. Ever since then, I've been a sort of thrill-seeker. I want to be able to ride the scariest rides and honestly, I wouldn't mind being a roller-coaster tester.
