Motorcycle Ride?! Um...

Hey howdy hey everybody. Sorry about not posting yesterday. I was just getting over some Krazy stuff yesterday. First of all, I got an A on a test I didn't even study for! :D Then, I made this cool Rorschach test in my psychology class (not gonna lie but kind of creeps me out a bit). Tell me what you think. Anyway, the craziest thing didn't occur until I got home from school. I got home a little later than usual; therefore, missing the bus (which was alright with me). I was going to take the public bus to the mall to go look at some action figures. After finding out I missed the bus, I decided I would just stay home. However, my mom thought otherwise. She proposed that she take me to the mall...but here's the catch: I had to go on her motorcycle. I have a certain aversion to motorcycles; I Iabel them as screaming metal death traps. Anyway, I decided to give it a go because I realized that life was too short to keep living in fear. After getting on the bike (that's the street name for motorcycle) and heading towards the mall, my fear began to subside. I thought that it wasn't as bad as I perceived it to be. The only problem was this one point where we hit a pothole and I kind of flew into the air a little. Ultimately, this moment was the beginning of a long list of things I will try (at least once) before it's too late.
