I went to Knott's Berry Farm amusement park today with my physics class. Apparently every year they have a "physics fun day" where a bunch of schools drive up to play on the rides and find the acceleration and such.
I had a super fun time with some really awesome people, and we went on most of the exciting rides. Sonja and I are totally awesome together in theme parks, especially since we're both able to handle the really intense roller coasters. I love roller coasters. ♥
My favorites are definitely the Xcelerator, the Boomerang, and the Ghostrider. The first was crazy fast with a pin drop, the other shot along loops backwards, and the last was just a massive adrenaline rush after a two hour line wait. (Which would have completely sucked if I wasn't with Katherine. Even then it was just SO LONG.)
I hoped I could find some souvenirs for my pen pals there, and I'm really sorry to say that there honestly wasn't anything of worth. I wish though!
Also, I've been holding off on sending a letter to Sierra from Texas--in her last letter she sent me a framed texas thing (which is really cool, though hard to describe) and a Doctor Who book! I want to send something back, but there's nothing interesting that I could get here for her! I'm struggling and have been holding off writing her back for a few days, hoping that there will be something magic that I find. I have no idea what though! :/
PS: I watched Labyrinth yesterday and it was awesome. The baby, Toby, is the most adorable little boy ever.
I did find the lead character's acting to be a little bad, though. Also, the little blue worm was creepy.
Oh, I'm glad you watched it! I'm actually watching it right now (Goblin City scene!), and I've been paying particular attention to the acting as well- though I agree with you, I think it was still probably an amazing movie, for it's time (late 80s). And you are very right, Toby is adorable. <3 Now I'm watching it because I came up with an idea for a Labyrinth fanfic today xD I nerdraged the whole time I was at work.
