well....
the first time i went on the haunted mansion, i was like...five. i was practically dragged on there by my aunt and brother and during the elevator part i started crying my eyes out and wouldnt leave my brothers arm alone. i do recall soaking his shirt...yup. anyway, by the end of the ride i was awestruck and in love. i rode it like a nutball after that and when i go on (no joke) i hope and pray it will shut down in the attic scene. seriously, have you seen all the detail in that thing? i know the story inside and out about the mansion and blahblahblah.
same thing for mission:space. i was all determined and rip-roarin ready to go. made it though all the warnings and junk, but as soon as they did that "if you have problems with darkness, inclosed spaces, loud noises, flashing lights, have any head, heart or back problems..." thing they do so well, i started getting nervous. when we actually sat down (strapped in and all), i looked at my brother like a scared puppy and began begging him to get me out of there. he was just like "sorry kid, you're stuck and there aint nothin we can do about it." i was terrified for the first, oh i dunno, 10 seconds of it, then i was screaming and laughing, making my own rocketship noises....
but scared of rides? i wouldnt go near alien encounter, not after the horror stories i heard. i will never ever go on dinosaur because sorry, giant becka eating lizards sort of freak me out. and the others i admit to being scared of are rnr and tot. though i know in the near future i'll be forced kicking and screaming onto them. and probably pout/whine/cry/say some un-disneylike things the whole time, too.
but everest...oh bring it on. im absolutely ITCHING to get on that thing. even though the thought of a huge yetti doesnt make me want to dance and giggle in happiness.
