The water park, the truck and the long drive home
During the last week of school my friend, Courtney, and I planned to go to the water park on the first weekend of the holidays for Summer. By 8:30am we had packed the car and were in our swimmers, all we had to do was wait for my sister and mum to wake up. At 10ish we were already to go for the hour trip to the town that actually had the water park (because our town is lame and only thing to do for teenagers is go to the mall and to do anything decent you have to drive to another town which is one hour away)
We were having our own mini road trip. We had the best songs playing on a repeating disk for an hour which included, Baby by Justin Bieber, Strawberry Kisses by Nikki Webster, Under Pressure by David Bowie (which is the BOMB DIGGITY!!!) Don't Stop Believin' by Journey and Nobody's Perfect by Hannah Montana.
When we finally got to the water park we all flipped out of the car like gymnasts on speed,
and raced to the boot to get our swimming bags out. We then raced to see who could get the entry first. I won of course (I lied when I run I look like a goose on crack trying to find it's way to water but it just so happens that it is blind and has its feet tied together) and we waited for my mum and sister to hurry up so we could enter. It had just opened and we were the first ones there but as my sister and mum were taking their sweet time to get to the entry a lot of people starting showing up. First it was a few and then after a couple of minutes there was a huge mob of people gathered around impatiently waiting for us to pay and go. Courtney and I were afraid that they would work together, pick us up run to the closest tree and tie us there forever, seeing as we were holding up the line, but after a few fearful seconds we could faintly hear the call of mother goose.
MUM: "DEMI!! DEMI!! WHAT THE HELL DEMI!! GET HERE NOW!! DEMI!!!!"
She thankfully caught on that we would not move from our spot in the line (after all we would be the first in and the first on the water slides seeing as we were dressed in swimmers and we would just leave our bags with mum) She paid and all three ran off to the water slides like gymnastic squirrels on speed.
As we finally climbed all of the stairs and got to the top of the water slide we finally realized that we were, in fact, not the first ones at the park, but indeed the 6th or 7th. So we waited in line for our turn on the slide. Tia, Courtney were both in front of me and either one person could ride the slide or they could double, Tia and Courtney doubled which left me to ride it by myself. Soon more people began to join the line and behind me were 3 BIG men waiting for their turn.
After a short but agonizing wait it was finally my turn. I sat on the water slide and with a final "WEE!!!" (and no it doesn't mean I peed myself) I went zooming off on the slide screaming the WHOLE TIME!!!
Well that was until I slammed into my sister with an "OOOF!! WHAT THE?!" The first person to go down the slide stopped halfway to make a big jam up of 7 people. I knew that soon those three BIG! men were going to come down that slide and literally bash (I would say slam... but... I have a dirty mind) in me and most likely squish me into a person smoothy. I literally had seconds to get this whole train of people moving down the slide before it was too late. I heard the first BIG! man go down the slide, I could also hear his hands pushing on the slide to make him go faster, the the second BIG! man double with the third BIG! man and were also speeding up.
I started kicking and shoving and pretty much screaming at them to "GO THE F*** DOWN THE SLIDE BEFORE I F****** GET SMASHED INTO A SMOOTHY!! GOOOOOOOO!!!" But it was too late.
I looked behind me and there was the first BIG! man finally noticing what had happened and looking at me knowing that he was unintentionally going to kill a minor, the terror he was facing.
But luckily he put his arms out and stopped himself, with his feet mere inches from my back. I breathed a sigh of relief at my fortune and smiled. As I was saying thank-you the doubled BIG! man 2 and BIG! man 3 hit BIG! man 1 which then caused him to brutally squish me into a human smoothy. I guess I wasn't so lucky.
As we got out at the end I got Tia and Courtney to see if I had any bruises on my back they said no (which I later found out they were lying and thought that if they said yes I would want to leave).
After a big day and getting really sunburnt we finally decided to go home, well it was more of mum saying we had to leave and all three of us jumping in the pool swimming to the bottom and holding our breaths hoping mum wouldn't find us. She did because when we came up, because we need oxygen, she was standing over us with her hands on her hips and said one word which made us tremble with fear, "OUT"
We took our sweet time to get out and mournfully walked to the car sulking the whole way. I then decided to brighten our mood by grabbing Courtney's bag and jokingly throw it onto the road. Except I'm really bad a joke throwing things and actually threw it on the road. We all started laughing at my weird game, while we were laughing a truck drove past and drove over Courtney's bag.
We just kinda stood there and stared at what the bag had become.
ME: "Well.... that was a bad idea"
COURTNEY: "No shit."
I went and got the squished bag and we all walked back to the car and put it into the boot, while all of this was happening we forgot to get changed into something dry so the drive back was cold and awkward as we told mum why we weren't changed.
Too this day we still brush our teeth.... wait what ?
