THE DAY OF DOOM Everybody has one of those days where they feel that they are invulnerable. Those are the days were you need excitement and you don’t care where you get it. The thought of dying or getting seriously hurt never crosses your mind. I am going to describe to you one of those days I had.
It all started with a headache and extreme boredom. I woke up on that sunny july morning with a painful headache. When you wake up with a headache you know your going to have a bad day so I popped some aspirin and went back to sleep. The annoying ring of the telephone woke me up about ten o’clock. It was one of my friends asking if I wanted to spend the day with them.
I said sure and got dressed. He arrived shortly and we took off for abbot. Come to find out he was having a impending sense of boredom just like I was. Both of us being down in the dumps we looked for something exiting and diferent to do. We took a detour down into a sand pit on the way to my friends girlfriends house. Taking turns doing donuts with his car in the sand we passed away about an hour.
I needed even more of a rush so I hoped on top of the car, held onto the roof, and told my friend to take off. After exiting the sand pit we flew off down the piper pond road going about 70. My eyes and face were getting wind burnt so I tapped on the wind she ild for him to slow down. After coming to a stop I told him he had to try it so again we sped off but this time he was the one flapping in the wind. When we pulled into his girlfriends house he jumped off the car laughing and rubbing his windburn t face. Still we hadn’t enough excitement so we grabbed his girlfriend and headed off towards barrow’s falls.
The Essay on Speeding And Racing Car Friend Life
Speeding and racing seem to be my favorite hobby when I sit on the car and drive. And I don't even care what will happen to me when I'm speeding and racing. Besides, my life just barely got out of a hole and ready to get back on track. Unfortunately, an incident that had tilled my life until this day would never be able to fade away. During spring term when I was still attending at Cal Poly Pomona ...
Barrow’s falls is small river in back abbot full of little falls and towering cliff faces. We parked the car a the begining of a trail and treated off down it, towels in hand. After walking a little ways we came to the spot we were looking for. It was a huge, deep, threatening pool at the base of a small waterfall.
There was various small rocks to jump into the water from but the real behemoth was a eighty foot cliff dominating the north side of the falls. Aching for more excitement I climbed to the top. Looking down from the top I didn’t once realize or even think about what could happen if I landed just wrong. I knew I had to act before my courage left me so I stepped back, ran, and leaped from the top of the cliff. It seemed like an eternity before I hit the water with crushing force.
When I barely grazed bottom I realized how much of a risk I took in jumping. After a hour or so of swimming around we headed home and crashed on his living room floor, exhausted. Not once on this day did I even think about my personal safety. I had an overwhelming sense of invulnerability and I used it to turn a normally uneventful day into an exciting adventure.
Every now and again I get that feeling again and I hook a sled onto the back of a car and speed off down a icy road or something as exciting. Everybody, exspecialy those that live in Maine, need some times when everything is put aside and all that matters is getting that next rush of adrenalin.
