I guess no one hadn't ridden a roller coaster. what do you feel while riding it? scared to death?
it's safety to ride roller coasters.
My friends and I had a more 'scared to death' experience on my SOTR (sahur on the road).
11th of Sepetember 2009:
I attended this event with a party of 11:
The only thing to eat was a fried chicken (like what KFC and Mcd has) and rice.
we were thingking for having more sahur that time. So we decided to go to McD sarinah with our party, but this time, without tony, risa, and boncas. Well it's kinda big mistake that we planned for it. After we reached to the parking lot, we found that nobody's good on driving manual car. It's my fault for saying "yeah, i could bring a car". Can't I bring a car? oh yes i can! but not manual.
Well, my friends were opstimistic from hearing what I say..but everything was ruined up when I asked Cupi "how could I change gear with manual car?". Cupi was shocked when I asked her that question. She told the others, and they start to attack me with words. Well I thought it was an easy lesson to drive manual car. nobody was getting in the car when I said that. we were doing nothing until Tony came to save the day. he was heading towards to the same location with his friends. we stopped him and asked him a favor. yeah, you can guess what it was.
great, now we have the car, we have the driver, not for long-term. Tony was planning to go home earlier. so someone must drive the car back to monas. we must take back farisa and boncas, cause this car is exactly farisa's car.
I guess all of us was worried how could we get back. we had a long time queing on McD, and was still strain who will drive the car.
Well luckily, tony was still with us when we drove back to monas. but looks like one of us have to study about driving. cupi had not trained driving car again since a long time. i had trained, but using matic. cupi then decided to drive the car. with a help of tony as the co-driver.
the engine starts, and the car jumped (first unfortunately event). I guess cupi was a little bit nervous at the start. she forgot to hold the 'kopling'. we get out of sarinah. we stopped at the ticketing, and was shown that the ticketing guard was a surprised that a girl was driving a car since there were three boys inside there.
first traffic light. there were 4 cars behind us. something was strange. a truck was standing beside us. well on everyone's experience, it seems that we were moving backwards when a truck began to move forward. but looks like this is kind of different. yes, the truck was moving forward, but I looked left and figurred out that we were moving backwards too. horn starts honking from behind. we screamed loudly to alert cupi. cupi took a good reaction. she pulled the hand brake. great, well what's next? the traffic light shows green, while cupi prepared to take off, suddenly the engine got down. horn honks again. we tried to turn it on, but it suceeded when the lights are yellow. GAS! so we passed the traffic light with one car behind us who goes when the light was red. I convince that the two other cars cursed us for what we had done. (second unfortunately event).
We got to the next unfortunate event. it was on the other traffic light, and there was a police station ahead. we were planning to turn 180 degrees. but seems like cupi didn't hear tony's instruction. she was still nervous after almost hitting the busway seperator. the light was green and the car moves forward. we started to scream telling cupi to rotate the handle. yes we are turning lately, but we also almost took the bus way. Then cupi rotate the handle again, roughly. we almost hit the busway seperator two times..nope, three times. some of us realized that we were close to death cause below us was water, and if it hits the fence, we're done. Fortunately, there were no police that guards that time.
the rest of the trip was safe, remebering that it was still 04.30 a.m. we arrived at monas to pick up farisa and boncas that had wait till dry. they start to babble. yeah, we were late to pick them. it as already subuh.
tony decided not to left us, because of that worse times. He then took us back to farisa's house.
yeah, nothing more to tell, I was asleep on the way cause of that situation.
forunately there was tony, and fortunately it wasn't me driving the car.
