Narrative Essay: Roller Coaster Ride

Psychosocial development is a debatable concept that many psychologists such as Sigmund Freud and Erik Erikson have formulated theories to explain. The film “Everybody Rides the Carousel of Life” develops the ideas behind Erikson’s theory of development which is composed of eight stages, each with its own surprise and crisis. The idea of the carousel symbolizes how life keeps turning, and the only way to stop in this case is with death. Erikson’s first stage explains the battle between trust and mistrust infants face when allowing others like their parents to take care of them. It is an age of developing awareness, and recognition of faces like the primary caregiver through feeding, which bring the infant closer to trusting the parent. Freud discusses this

The Ride is the story of the heinous and gruesome murder of ten year old, Jeffrey Curley, a case that is familiar to many in the Massachusetts area. The book works its way from the grisly crime to the years afterward. It focuses on the family of Jeffrey, heavily weighted on the life of Cambridge Firefighter Bob Curley, Jeffrey’s father. Charles Jaynes and Salvatore Sicari, both from Jeffrey’s neighborhood were convicted of the murder. Within this essay I will demonstrate from The Ride the relationship between reporting and suffering that may have been brought on for the crime victims of this case, the relationship between the victim profiles and the victim family profiles, the role in which the family may have played in the

“It goes upside down!” I said. My sister was telling me about a roller coaster ride in Disney World after our parents had broken the news that we were going the summer of my fourth grade year. The idea of going to a park was amazing, but the terrifying part was my slight fear of the fast roller coasters that my family enjoys. My parents looked at me, and I smiled with uncertainty. But on the contrary I started to feel a faint feeling of ambition because maybe I could overcome my fear.

The horse ride changed mike's opinion of his horse and himself because at first the was some trouble with getting him on the horse,but once he got on he started to enjoy himself and realize that just because he has a disability he doesn't have to limit himself.according to paragraph 1 it states how he felt or his opinion of getting on the horse. "No, stop it, I don't want to!" I yelled. Some of the horses in front of the barn looked at me, and all of the people stared, but I didn't care. Not being a sweet little angel like the disabled kids they show on TV is what gives my life meaning. I raised the volume of my voice enough to send birds flapping out of the shade trees. "You have no right! Isn't this supposed to be a free country?".

To adequately understand the relationship between physics and roller coasters, it is essential to first describe and explain the basic structure of roller coasters. In simple terms, a roller coaster is much like that of a passenger train. To explain, a roller coaster consists of a series of connected cars that move on tracks. However, unlike a train, a roller coaster has no engine, or rather a power source of its own.

A time in which I tried something new was roller coasters. It was August 9, 2015 my brother, sister, and me packed our bags thinking we were going to our grandparents, yet did we know we were on our way to Branson. We pulled up to a hotel, that was when we finally noticed we were nowhere near our grandparents house.

Never wear sunglasses when riding a rollercoaster. Once upon a time I was in love, and when she dumped me, I took it hard. My heart sank like a bottomless pit, my Adam’s apple filled with air, and my smile ceased to exist. This was the most horrible day of my life … then I lost my favorite sunglasses. Only a sane person would ask, how I could love my sunglasses more than a girl. These were no ordinary sunglasses, they were Maui Jim Makaha sunglasses, and they were polarized. I wore them everywhere, they never left my sight.

Have you ever noticed how some cars seem to be smiling when you pass them on the road? From around age 7, I always told my mother that cars made by Mazda appeared to be smiling at me! Years later, to my surprise, my mother had purchased a 2011 Mazda 3 for my sixteenth birthday. Shortly after, I pointed out the smiling face that I had always noticed as a child. She finally agreed with me that the car appeared to be smiling due to its oddly shaped grille cover. The human-like faces it makes is not the unique characteristics of my car; it has a unique interior layout, an oddly shaped stain, and a dent in the back bumper from an unforgettable day!

WHOOSH !!, went the roller coaster the wind brushed passed my face and pushed my hair back I smiled with a very big grin I was at six flags for the first time. A week before my best friend maya called me and asked me if I would like to come to six flags with her I screamed YES OF COURSE I WANT TO GO WITH YOU, well i was a little nervous because I had never been on a roller coaster or to an amusement park ever. I was so excited my heart was racing I was so ready to go that, night when I went to bed i couldn't fall asleep because I was so happy I kept thinking about all of the rides and games i was very excited.

I am a piece of clay, just as every person is. We will never be a set shape. Instead, we are molded. That molding depends entirely upon what molds us. At the beginning of life, we are molded by the hands of loving parents, but once we leave that safe-place, we are on our own. At that point, we can be tossed, slammed, poked at, and sometimes even ripped apart. One important event in my life that molded me and has helped make me the person I am today was my first roller coaster ride. Amusement rides don’t usually change a person’s life, but the first time I went on a roller coaster, I found myself stepping off the ride as an entirely different person. Most people conquer their fears on thrill rides, but instead, I conquered the one thing most people are terrified to face. Something that’s more horrific than monsters and demons, and that is yourself. For me, the ride was more of a journey than anything. From the beginning to the end, I learned a lot about myself, my life, and who I wanted to be during the duration of what felt like years, but lasted only minutes.

If you are ready for the thrill of a lifetime, this ride is the one for you! Exhilarating, amazing, exciting, unexpected and awesome, are just a few words that describe this ride. It all starts out normal, just like any ordinary roller coaster. To start, the ride uses work to get the ride moving and keeps moving at a constant speed. Even while riding up the 75 feet, or the 22.86 meter hill, you are still moving up at a constant speed. Throughout almost the whole roller coaster, you have kinetic energy. Except for when you arrive to the top of the hill, balanced forces act on you, and you come to a complete stop. At this point, your cart has the greatest potential energy. After a little while at the top of the hill, when the tension starts to build, Newton’s 1st Law is acted on the ride, and work, or force, launches you down the hill, accelerating rapidly. Newton’s 1st Law is that an object will stay at rest, unless acted in by an unbalanced force. Racing down the hill you are free-falling, and experiencing
