I was so afraid of roller coasters before going to Six Flags, but I'm glad I didn't back out of going on them.

My friend, Meghna, had to convince me to go have fun on the roller coasters because I was terrified of them. The only roller coasters I've beenen on before coming to Six Flags were the ones at Universal, and they were nowhere as extreme and intense as the ones at Six Flags. Unlike Universal, the roller coasters at Six Flags Over Georgia are much more intense and go higher with many loops and inversions weaved in them. But now I'm glad I braved up and went on them because it was an amazing experience for me, albeit a bit terrifying at first.

​1. Superman: Ultimate Flight

At the first look of this extremely creative roller coaster, I was terrified. I wanted to refuse to go, but I felt I would miss out on a potentially amazing experience. And I was not wrong. This roller coaster is, in my opinion, the best roller coaster in Six Flags Over GA. It was unlike any other ride and it really did make me feel like I was flying. Instead of the typical style of roller coasters, this coaster has you sit in a flat position instead of the usual sitting one. Imagine the stance of a flying Superman. That is the position you are strapped in so that you get the real feel of flying. It was terrifying at first but I soon came to enjoy how amazing it felt to "fly" across the skies. It's definitely worth going on.

2. Mindbender

This ride was also amazing. Next to the Superman ride, this is definitely my second favorite ride. The thrill of it made me let go of my slowly fading fear of heights and just made me feel free. It's unarguably worth to go on. I loved it so much I went on it twice. The speed of the ride honestly did bend my mind and left me me feeling a bit dizzy and lightheaded. Still, it was pretty incredible to go on.

3. Blue Hawk

While I felt like I was going to throw up before getting on it, I am happy that I tried it. While it was undoubtedly frighting at first, the feeling soon faded away to be replaced with fierce exhilaration. The intensity and momentum of it was amazing and it made me feel like I was floating at certain points.

4. The Great American Scream Machine

The Scream Machine, though a bit uncomfortable, was still an awesome roller coaster. On the outside it looks a bit simple, but it was intense once you get on it. Due to it being a wooden roller coaster, it was extremely bumpy, which made the experience a bit uncomfortable. But it gave me a taste of what the Goliath ride is like. Overall, it was fun experience which left me with a slightly sore neck and a dizzy head.

5. Goliath

The moment I saw the Goliath looming over the entrance, I told myself I would never in a million years get on that monster. It frightened me to my core and literally sent chills down my spine. But eventually, after getting on all other roller coasters, it didn't seem as daunting as before. Still, when I sat in in, I was convinced I was going to die by accidentally falling out the roller coaster. Thankfully, I didn't. It was a pretty amazing experience though. The Scream Machine was similar to it but it went nowhere near as high as the Goliath. This ride helped me with my fear of heights, too, and it was amazingly exhilarating. I will definitely go on it again.

The overall experience was pretty phenomenal and I am definitely going to Six Flags again. It greatly helped me with my fear of heights and I had a great time.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September.
