summer of six flags

One of my most memorable and most fun times would have to be a trip to six flags i took the summer of my incoming sophmore year in high school. I remember it like it was yesterday, getting a call from one of my best friends asking if i wanted to go and that he was willing to pay for my ticket. All we could talk about on the phone was what we where going to wear, what rides we were going to ride and how many girls we thought we were going to meet. The night before the trip i tried to plan out what i was going to wear. I knew we were both going wear the best outfit we had in our closets because at that time six flags was a huge thing for us. In my closet i had a fresh pair of white and black low top jordan 12's  i bought 6 months earlier and was saving for the perfect day so i knew i had to bust those bad boys out. At the time khaki dickie suits where in so i bought that and had my dad put the meanest creases ever, honestly i think he went a little over board with the iron and starch. So the the morning of the trip i had my dad drop me off at my friends house an hour early because i was so anxious to go. My friend mike bought a smilez and southstar cd since we thought they were the coolest and we played that album all the way to the theme park. As we walk through the gates we scope the scene like we were cool then ran as fast as we could could to the closest ride which was viper. The whole week leading toward the trip i was talking about how superman wasnt that scary and that i would ride it three times so that was the second ride we went on. As we walked up the hill getting closer and closer to the line my heart was pounding and i wanted to chicken out but i knew i couldn't because my friends wouldnt let me hear the end of it. We didn't get on as much rides as we planned because the line were so ridiculous .By the time it got dark we were so sad to leave. My friends mom was in front as soon as we stepped out of the park. We hoped his mom would take her time so we could live up the last few mintues we were at the theme park. Til' this day we still talk about this memorable day.
