First Time I Went on an Airplane - Describe an Experience with Fear (by William)


Have you ever went on an airplane?  Let me tell you my experience on an airplane. 

One early morning, my mom announced that we were going to Taiwan.  I jumped out of bed, threw on an outfit, and started packing.  I threw in some outfits, pajamas, water bottle, books, tour guide, and maps.

As my dad pulled into the airport, my palms started to sweat, and a shiver went through my spine.  I knew exactly why my mind was controlling those weird actions and that was because I was going to throw up in the airplane.

As we walked into the airport, I noticed a big waiting room.  I asked my mom “are we going in there?”  “Yes,” she replied.  When we first walked into the room, I noticed a monitor revealing the airline’s name: Eva Air. 


When we actually stepped into the plane, a chill pounded through my spine, my heart started to beat wildly, and my palms started to sweat even harder. 

Just then I heard the pilot’s announcement.  “Ladies and Gentlemen, please buckle your seatbelts.  We are taking off in one minute.”  I buckled my seatbelt.  “Roar” went the plane’s engine.  I squeezed my mom’s hand.  “William!  Why are you breaking my fingers?” Screamed my mom.  “I am scared of this plane ride!”  I explained.  I couldn’t hold my feeling so I screamed “Mom!” I felt something strange in my body and I looked around for a parachute, but there was not even one.  “Too late,” I moaned. 

The plane was already flying in the stratosphere.  I finally got to sit back and watched a movie, eat, brush my teeth, and go to sleep.  Everything was good until I woke up.  I sighed and looked where the plane was, right over Japan. 

The plane ride was better than I expected, and we safely landed in Taiwan.

“Calm down, you are breaking my fingers!”  Shouted my mom.  “Mom, I am so nervous and nauseous, the plane is shaking so hard” I said.

  1. Such a vivid story, I could relive this nerve-wracking trip. However, nothing can stop you from exploring the world by air, by hot air balloon, by horse, by ship, by dog sled, by snowmobile, by space shuttle, or even starcruiser! Please don't forget to share your future experience with us on your blog.
