   Boardwalk
Today was as interesting as my life gets. But today we were going to the Boardwalk, so we were rushing a bit and when we got to my friends cousins house we left for the boardwalk. Here comes the interesting part.

I DO NOT LIKE RIDES! [Note from Brenna: That''s pure breed insanity.]

And it just so happens they decided ( My friend, Brenna, and her two cousins, Leah and Devon) that they would force me into the rides. I was not happy. For me, I would just like to sit on the beach, take a nap, maybe get some food, buuut nooooo!!! Anyway it was alright until we went to this thing called Fright Walk. I am a chicken and proud to admit it. I thought it would be all fun and all that but when we went it, my heart stopped.

There were walls closing in all around and the only opening was a mirror like entrace that had a head right in front of you. God I wish that was the only scary thing. Brenna was in front with me holding her and being her eyes because she had shut them and refused to open them. Then came the hall of mirrors. We couldn't find a walkway and there were shadows in the mirrors and... I saw a reflection of a man on one of the mirrors. Brenna lost it. She was all screaming, "Quit messing with my brain, you *censored*!" We kicked our way through. I was panicking; it was darkness all around with no end [note from Brenna: She really kept her cool. Devon was spazing. I'm not trying to make her look like an everyday hero, but man! She sure is. And if you erase this note, harusame, I'm gonna strangle you.]. Other things popped out at us and then we reached a walkway in a tunnel, the outsides were turning to give the illusion that we went upside down. At the other end was a black, pitch black doorway. Brenna lost it again and she didn't want to be in front anymore. Neither did Leah and Devon. So I decided to because Brenna was in front for most of the time, and she deserved it. The rest of the way wasn't bad, we had to duck down and things above us were roaring and slamming down on us, then we reached the exit. God I was soooo happy. I promised myself I would never go back there again...ever.

The last parts of the day were my most treasured. First we went for dippin dots to ease the shock of the Fright Walk then we rode a few more rides, I did so willingly this time, and then we finished it with a Super Sundae Cone which I shared with Brenna cause she deserved it (though reallly it's cause she was staring at it so happily and probably thinking, "FOOD!"), and Bumper Cars. And now she and I are at her house at 11:58 at night. She's playing Zelda and I going to join her in just a moment.

In relevation to those who think I over reacted about the Fright Walk thing. For average girls like me that was a adventure and my best friend Brenna is a hero in many ways than one. So there. [ ummm... hi. this is a note from Brenna. I'd just like to point out that I'm not a hero, Harusame is, and that I actually didn't survive that Fright Walk. I'm pretty sure I've died of a stroke.] Correction: Brenna stayed at the front for all of the walk except the last 2 minutes. Pretty brave considering everywhere you looked there were floating heads and reflected dead people.
