Get out more and ride some great coasters
Well, I would love to get out of the state and get to more parks, get my credit count up more, but considering my mom has rejected every idea of a vacation if it isnt to SoCal or Vegas, it's pretty hard. All I have for work is my job as an Aftershock op at Silverwood. In the winter, nobody will hire me. According to Walmart, i'm capable of operating a Vekoma GIB but i'm not capable of pushing carts from outside to inside.. so obtaining money is hard for road trips or vacations. Not having a car or a license hinders my road trip ideas as well. But probably the biggest thing that hinders all of this is the fact that my family doesn't share my love for the industry, nor do they really care.
I lived in SoCal from 1992 to 2007, and have been to almost every major SoCal park. I have credits from all major Vegas coasters (aside from the Lightning Bolt and the High Roller) as well, and then every coaster at Silverwood. Add everything up and I have 35 credits. It isnt much, but it's all I have until I can move out. I'm stuck in Idaho until I turn 18, unless I was to get myself emancipated. As soon as I turn 18, I plan on either moving back to SoCal or moving to Florida for college.
