I am so unhappy right now. I might just start to cry again. Arghhhh. :'(

My class is having this class trip after spm, whr we are gg for about 7-8 days and 6 nights to Penang --> Pangkor Island --> KL --> Genting. Everything is like included : accommodation, traveller's insurance, genting indoor/outdoor tickets, just almost everything! We just have to pack our bags and get on the bus.

My dad initially said allowed me to go. So i begged adeline, wenli & joey to go. Kim begged her parents so did cf. But im not sure is cf still gg.

Until ystd, i told my dad, 'I need RM150 for de deposit'. My mom overheard and started asking me. She said things like, Who said you can go? Who will take care of you girls? Is it under school? Any teachers following? (continued to bombard me with questions, which i had already explained to them earlier.) My dad joined in as well. Both of them were shooting me with questions & scolding at the same time. I was choking on my words because i was refraining myself frm crying. My tears were streaming down nonstop.

*Fyi, the bus driver is a friend of my friend's father. He planned the whole 8 day trip for us. Not under a travelling agency. Which, made thing even worst.*

The issue of not-under-a-travelling-agency came up as well. Again, those questions. 'Who is gonna take care of you girls? Who do i look for or contact if anything happens? You all are going to an island by FERRY?! Do you know how many ferries sink in a year? The driver is gonna bring another person to take care of you girls? Do you know who he is? What if they sells you all off? How many times have we read in the newspaper about girls missing, being raped and murdered? How are we gg to feel if something bad happens? What are we gg to do? Ohh, you think just because you are 17, you are old enough? (and it goes on and on... and i think you can clearly see how tough it was for me to answer all that and defend myself while sobbing..)

My mom demanded for the bus driver's number. She rang him up and questioned him like a criminal. My dad went for badminton. She said, 'wait for yr dad to come home and then he will call the bus driver'. My dad came home and told my mom, 'Tell her not go lah. She'll be gone for 8 days and i'll be worrying for 8 days'. He didnt even bother calling the bus driver.


I begged and asked all my close friends to go then suddenly, im not going at all. How ironic, huh?


Honestly, i do understand how my parents feel. No, every parent. I know they care and are worried but isnt it about time to let me venture out and be more independent? I've been waiting for this trip for like, idk how many godzillion years. The real graduation trip. Graduation from school. And after that, college...

If i was not a daughter but a son, they would let me go by all means.
