Raging Water Adventures

The weekend came here fast, and its getting close to my birthday (only 3 days left!). Karina decided to get everyone together to go to raging waters in early celebration of my birthday. It was so fun! We didn't get there till around 2:30 which kind of sucked but we were there for a good 5 hours. But with our luck it was party cloudy and overcast most of the day. Oh well though.

Me and Hole (aka Taylor Hanz-a-lick) got a two seater tube. It was awesome. We played for a long time in the wave pool and then went on lots of slides and let me tell you, when you have 2 people in a tube for a slide you go alot faster and its alot more enjoyable. Well anyways, we were standing at the top of one of the slides waiting for our turn to go when we hear a slap. When we look to the right of us there is a kid (about 12?) laying face town at the top of the slide. Wtf?? It all kind of happened in slow motion, you know when you feel like something is lasting for 20 minutes but in all the spare time you have NO idea what to do? This kid is just laying there... for my guess about 5 seconds, and not ONE person goes to help him. No one reaches down to check him or to make sure he is still alive. The life guard just kind of shrugged and had a stupid blank look on her face, when all of a sudden the kid jumps up and is like "I'M READY TO GO!" But you could tell he was trying to play it off like nothing happened.

I felt bad for the poor kid, he was not ok-- obviously-- and no one bothered to help him. I'm just glad it wasn't me. But its not like I didn't have anything embarrassing happen to me. When we were all in the wave pool me and hole thought it would be fun to tip ourselves over. Maybe I should back up and tell everyone that my swimming skills suck major butt, I am still plugging my nose to go under water while no one else has to do this. (When did everyone learn that trick anyway??) Well we fall off our tube and the waves kept covering my head when I thought it was a safe time to take a breath. When I finally gain control and got back on the tube my bottoms fell down and my whole bare butt in right in this fire crotches face... he was older, probably 40, and had a creeper look to him, he enjoyed that sight way too much. I was pretty embarrassed.

But other then that I had an amazing time and I'm super glad everyone that went was there to support me for my birthday. :) I'm excited for my real birthday! 3 days to go :)
