Magic Mountain was not-so-magic

Today was not the best day. Aaron and I planned on going to Magic Mountain today, and we found out that Tyler and Dawn wanted to join us as well, which was cool.

When we arrived, we began riding some roller coasters and I started to become more and more sick to my stomach. The rides at Magic Mountain aren’t that much more intense than the ones back home, but I did have a tough time handling a lot of the rides that should have been a breeze.

And speaking of breeze, there was none today. It was dry and hot all day long which definitely added to the excitement. I purchased so many water bottles and small little cracker (dry food) snacks it was unbelievable. By lunch time I had given up on riding the coasters because my body couldn’t handle it anymore. Everyone was giving me a hard time and all, but I know my body better than they do and I don’t regret a thing.

The only sucky part, was that I wanted to go on relaxing rides like the go-carts, water rides, and smaller things like that but nobody else did and I really didn't feel like leaving the group and having to RE-find them...


On an exciting note, our cook, Walter, shared with us some interesting history about Montclair (the dorm/apartment style complex we are staying at). I may have listed some of this before, but if not, here goes…

--Michael Jackson and Janet Jackson both attended the Monclair Prep School AND used the apartments for a small time.

--Cher’s children attended the Monclair Prep School

Many other children of well-known celebrities supposedly also have their children attending Montclair and staying in the apartments during the year. I just thought it was kind of fun to share….


Anyways, not sure what’s on the agenda for tomorrow. I think we begin editing or possibly a class on editing theory. Tuesday is our day to travel to the sets of DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES!! I’m soooo excited!!

I’ll be updating again soon! Thanks for listening!

Dad would like to know how you can win the physical challenge, and then when it comes to winning the big prize and all you have to do is eat, you DON'T win???
