First of all, you need to learn spelling and grammar. Second it is not like a roller coaster. Third, the most dangerous part is driving to the airport.

Taking off is my favorite part of the flight. It's nothing to be scared of. The plane will slowly accelerate and you may be pushed against your seat a little. As it smoothly pitches (tilts) upward, just close your eyes, relax, and enjoy. Oh, and you may feel a little pressure on your chest if you're not used to a plane ride. It's harmless and definitely not a cause for panic. Landing is a different story. It's NOT a roller coaster going down on the first drop. Landing shouldn't be bumpy, but that may depend on weather. When landing, you might hear a moderately loud rumbling sound. It's nothing to worry about, the plane hasn't crashed. It's just the sound of the landing gear rolling on pavement.

Flying an aeroplane is none the less similar to driving oon the back seat of a cab. You don't even hear the noise of the engines. All you hear is a small hum of the Auxilary Power Unit {APU} used ot power the a/c system and other electornics used inside the aircraft.
Imagine you sitting in the back seat of a cab with your eyes closed. the feeling you would have during a steep climb up or down. The same feeling is reproduced in a/c accept for the sudden bump during the landing.
Ant how enjoy the trip. There is nothing to be afraid of.

An odd thing in some of these answers. People rarely mention the noise. Commercial jet airliners are really quiet most of the time.
The ride is smoother than riding in a car, and takeoffs and landings just involve tilting up or down just a few degrees. There may be a "bump" when the main wheels touch the ground, depending on the type of airplane and the conditions.
So nothing to worry about. Enjoy it.

Don't worry about ..it doesn't feel like a roller coaster on take off and landing. Think of it as your car going up and down on a hill .. No big deal. Enjoy it!!!!

Takeoff: The pilot's apply full throttle. You get pushed back a little bit in your seat because of the speed. Then they pull up. This feels like about 1 times your body weight against you because of the G forces. Then your flying! Yeah!
Landing: You start to decend and your ears may pop. Chew gum or something. Then basically when you touch down it feels like when you drive across a speed bum quickly. Depends on the pilot.
You'll be fine! Have fun!

It's actually quite mild, it can be slightly noisy, but mostly it's just fun. It feels like a car accelerating, but without any hesitation for changing gear and it just keeps going faster, then it tilts slightly and gets smooth. Landing is just the reverse, you come closer and closer to the runway then there's a bump and you are on the ground and braking.
For 99.9% of the flight it's just a bit noisy, if it weren't for that you might be sitting on the ground.
