I'm closing my account after being on this site for longer than I can remember right now.
I would like to say thank you to all the columnists that I've met through this site, may your hearts of gold continue to shine through this site.
My reason is simple: I no longer feel I have a use for it anymore. I once was a person who couldn't help other people because of certain difficult situations in my past, but all that has now changed. This site allowed me to be who I really was and for that I'm so grateful for that. It played a very important role in my life and I'll never forget it!
The questions which I answered allowed me to reflect on my life and where it was going, and gave me the opportunity to really appreciate the life that I have, which I'm now living with open arms.
I wish you well for the future,
Triquetra....signing off for the last time.

Hello! So, in two weeks I am going to Universal Studios in Orlando with a group of students from my school. I really want to have a good time on the trip but I'm scared because I know everyone is going to want to ride rollercoasters and things but I might be too big to ride anything. I mean, 2/3 years ago at our county fair, the bars on rides fit me tightly and I've gained 100 + pounds since then so I can almost guarantee I won't be fitting on any rides. I don't know what to do!! If I try to get on a ride and am told to get off, I'll be humiliated. If I don't get on any rides with my friends I'll look like an idiot cause I'll be the only one that didn't get on anything and again, I'll be HUMILIATED. :'( What am I going to do???? (link)

Talk to you teacher privately about it and see what he or she says because for the day to be good for everyone, then need to ensure that you will be happy as well. Don't forget, even though others say they want to go on the rollercoasters, others may not want to for other reasons, so you won't be alone in that respect.
I went to Orlando quite recently in fact and there is a huge variety of things which you can do there apart from the rollercoasters. If I remember correctly, there was only like one or two major rollercoasters to go on (Hulk and Dragon something). Plus, most the ride bars go over you and the seats are pretty deep so I don't think that it should be a problem. I don't know whether the rides in the county fair rides' bars come forward or not like they do over here but overall, it shouldn't be a problem. If in doubt, go and ask somebody.
Ask around and see how people feel about the rollercoasters and get a general view as to who wants or doesn't want to go on them. Even if there is only one person, that makes a huge difference. I understand that you want to go on them, but if you can't (God forbid!) then at least you can go with somebody else.
I hope this helped,
triquetra
