My goals for lifetime ride totals: -Reach 300 total rides on Vortex -Reach 100 total rides on Diamondback -Reach 75 total rides on WindSeeker and 80 on The Bat I also would like to ride Banshee at least 10-15 or maybe even 20 or more times this year. Meanwhile, I just realized that I didn't ride Vortex more than 10 times in one day last year compared to 2012 when I did as many as 18 times in one day; this year I'll try to ride Vortex 11 times or more in at least one trip, just like in 2012. I'll also try to ride Diamondback more, since I reached an all-time low of only 11 rides last year. *people gasp and say to me "Are you CRAZY?!?"*

Elegant WindSeeker in chilly October 10/30/11 by KIC-Vortex_BFF, on Flickr WindSeeker on Closing Day, October 30, 2011. This is one of the last pics I took of it before it received the additional bracing (or whatever it's called) in 2012. Most Recent Edit: Dane fixed it! Yay! Dane: I'll fix WindSeeker when I get home this evening.

When you're looking at all the ride photos you've bought in your lifetime (so far)...

Very nice report! I enjoyed it. You love Vortex too? Awesome!!! (it's my favorite ride!)

My mom and I just got ours today!

4th time ever on Vortex - on 8/17/2010 by KIC-Vortex_BFF, on Flickr This was from August 17, 2010. It's a picture of me about to take my 4th ride ever (yes, 4th) on Vortex! I was 11 years old at the time. Had I not uploaded it to my Google+ account as a profile photo along with 2 other photos from 10/23/2010, it would have been lost forever when my laptop's hard drive had failed in 2012. In order for me to be able to share them on here, I just downloaded them and re-uploaded them to Flickr. I'm very thankful they were on Google+ already, or else I would not be able to eventually share them with my fellow KICentral members right now.

Five years already? I was 10 when I first rode it, and now I'll be 15 in roughly a month. Wow.

I've been looking through all my trip reports, and it's making it feel that the season's even more closer than it actually is...

^They play on rides there?

I got really excited when he (Don) said The Bat is going to be open on Media Day too!! Now I'm even more excited than before, and it's still January...

When you have an index card (taped to the wall) showing how many days of the offseason are left. Today, there are 88 more days until Opening Day (and 87 until Media Day!).

There is actually a chance my mom and I could go to the Media Day! We just have to become Coaster Crew members first...

I'm still having them.

And I still call it Fairly Odd Coaster. You're not alone!

Hopefully I'll get to go to Opening Day this year! April 18 is during my Spring Break, so I'll most likely have little to no problems with that! I'm so happy! :D

April 18 is during my Spring Break! I'll have little to no conflicts with any plans to head out to KI! (schedule-wise) That is awesome!
