Personal Narrative: An Incident At Cedar Point
Another incident that occurred was when Chris and I went to Cedar Point. Cedar Point is another place that brings me joy. It makes me feel nostalgic, like I’m a little kid adventuring around again. I am a rollercoaster warrior and until the day that this incident happened, the only thing that could ruin the day for me, were the dandelion puffs flying around in the wind like mosquitos, attacking my immune system making me sneeze up a storm. However, a group of 18-19 year old’s added to my list of things that can ruin a day at Cedar Point.
As we were standing in line, this group thought it would be funny if they started saying racist things, but not thinking about how the majority of the black people would feel around them. Then, they kept getting into our personal space, and it’s already hard enough to stay a couple feet away from each other in the lines from it being so crowded. They were especially getting too close to me so I said to Chris, “Some people need to learn how to respect other people’s personal space.” …show more content…
What makes someone say that out of nowhere? All I wanted was some personal space. Chris decided to come in the middle of both the group and I and held his arms on the bars so they wouldn’t pass him. After a while they kept their distance but they said those things during the wait of my favorite ride, Millennium Force. I hate when most of the hate is pointed towards me, not because it is for that reason and that reason only, but because Chris gets caught in the crosshairs. People judge him for dating me, saying that he could do better, or say he shouldn’t be with me and it’s wrong, as well as me getting the same response about him. Yet, he always says he loves me and would do anything to protect me. Nothing bad anyone ever says about us will bother him because they can’t change the way he feels about me. Also that being with me is one of the best decisions he’s ever made, and he’s honored to be with
