oprah gets in kalamazoo: our trip to cedar point

i love roller coasters. love them. much love is in my heart for them. i dream about them. i think about them. i ride them and i get nervous about them. i love them.

from the time i was small till i was 21 (a mere year ago), i have been scared of rides. i can mentally convince myself to go on them, but if they are high and scary-looking, i spend too much time being scared to enjoy them. upside down rides were a definite no-no.

however, one of my favorite people loves rides and so this person, let's call him "tim," pressured me into going on rides at the red river ex. it took a lot of convincing but by the end i was enjoying myself and laughing. and then we all went on a road trip! so began the transformation of marcia's opinion on rides and roller coasters.

we went to cedar point amusement park in ohio...and it was the best ever. i'll stop talking about it and just show you. seriously. i miss this place.

my first roller coaster ever! oldest at the park - woody and creaky and fun!the ride i still dream about going on...

and that we waited in line for twice - and were told twice that it was down :(
my most favorite ride in the world... the raptor!!!!!!

and last but not least, the tallest roller coaster in the world!!! and i went on it :)

for more roller coaster moments, check my facebook. it's easier to put pictures up there!

ill

remember highschool when the boys used to say "ill-dog-rider?"
they were weird.

but i've decided i like the word "ill" better than "sick." i've been sick for over a week now and it is awful. i am ill. i've only actually had a fever 4 of those days, but the rest of the time i've been hurting, headachey, no appetite and just not feeling like myself. i think i may have hit the point of bodily exhaustion. this is so weird, cuz i'm never sick this much! it's very very odd that i'm sick for more than one day!

on a brighter note, tonight is the fulfillment of one of my hopes from the past oh...6 years.
