Going to Cedar Point (one of the best parks on the planet) yesterday was one of the best, fun times I ever had. Despite Alex\’s repeated statements of you-weird-me-out, I did actually meet up with several friends that I met online, namely Naim, his gf Allie, and Paul. And they all had good knowledge of the park (especially Paul who goes to CP very often), so we were able to find the fastest routes to rides, quickest lines, and the best seats. Right now, all I can say is that I have never had more than four hours of thrill straight in a row and have never felt so dizzy/nauseous afterwards. Also, I can say that…I love planning too much even though there are many frustrations from coordination…but hey!
I rode at least 7 roller coasters plus 3 incredible thrill rides. Out of them though, my favorites were Millennium Force (a roller coaster that goes 310 feet in the air and at least 92 mph), Top Thrill Dragster (the ride that I heard about on a tv show a few years ago in California before I knew I was going to cmu and made me want to visit!) and maXair (a spinning swinging omgsoitwassomuchfun ride).
Including going to a Pirates vs. Dodgers game Saturday (standing room only for the 10 of us) with a dorky fireworks show and the farewell party on Friday (with my professors playing ddr), I\’ll just say that I won\’t forget it.
Definitely a good time, thanks for the invite. Allie wanted me to tell you again that she really had a great time and liked meeting you all. :) Who knows, maybe next year…?
yah maybe next year i\’ll fly in.
