This is kinda scary...

So today at work I saw the scariest thing happen but it didn't. Let me explain. So a gentlemen was coming to jump into the pool. He basically dove over his little kid. The way he dove was not good at all. I knew something bad would have happened to him. He came up from under water grabbing his head. He smacked it on the ground. I was so sure that we were going to have to back board the guy. I jumped down from his stand and basically had to chase him because he ran away. So I was able to catch up to him. He and his cute little family were definately going to the ER. I hope he is ok. Sorry random experience i wanted to share.

LAGOON

So yesterday I had the awesome opportunity to go to Lagoon with some really good friends of mine. It was way fun but really hot!!! I had a couple of highlights throughout the day. First of all... I wore a Kearns Cougars shirt. Me and my friends were walking through some pavallion areas were we could see there had been beer and stuff. Well anyways we passed this dude who had to be drunk. All of the sudden he saw my kearns shirt and yelled... "YEAH...(weird pauses).... KEARNS... (Another weird pause).... RULES!!!!!!!!!!!!!" It was so funny. I think i just smiled and walked on. It was so funny. And I swear... this dude was drunk. His eyes were not holding still.

The next highlight of my trip was the new roller coaster called Wicked. It was totally cool. You start out in a tunnel and then you hit these magnet things and it speeds you up and you shoot up over this completely vertical hill and down the vertical hill. Oh my lanta it was a rush. It was definately worth the wait. The whole time i was thinking of the musical wicked and the song Defying Gravity. I have posted the song listen if you want. Below are some pictures of the sweet
roller coaster...The video recording of the singer isn't the greatest but hey, i wish i could sing like her (oh and BTW I have heard better performances of them)....




The final hightlight of my day was the sky coaster. I basically gave into peer pressure and paid extra money to go on it. It was totally worth it. At first i was like freaking out. My poor friend who rode with me, I almost broke her arm off when they were still hooking us up. I think the worst part about it was going up because it kept going and going and it felt like i was leaning foreward. I didn't like that feeling. My dear friend listened to me freaking out the whole time. Once you reach the top, you just hang there then the people on the ground have a speaker system and yell, "FLYERS are you ready?!" Then we the "flyers" give a thumbs up. Then the person yells, "3,2,1 and FLY" Then either you or your buddy pulls a cord and away you fly. I made my sweet friend pull the cord seeing that she had been on it before. It was so scary (not gonna lie) but totally worth it. Thank you friend for pulling the cord. I know i couldn't have done it. Below is a video of how a sky coaster works if you didn't know. Oh and it is not me or at lagoon. It is a totally random coaster.



I also realized how grateful i am for friends. Friends who actually care and listen to you when you talk. Friends who like hanging out with you. Friends who basically love you. It is nice to have these friends there to talk to.
