Trip Of A Lifetime

written by:Jola Pryka

"Ugh... why won't your parents let you come?" "I already told you. They hardly ever let me leave town without them, never mind leaving the state, posibly the country." "It's not like you're going by yourslef or with someone your parents hardly know. We've been friends since forever. Our parents are friends. You guys come to all of our family things- you practically ARE family. So what's the problem?" "They don't think that I should use my summer to around the country because of a music group. They don't think it's a good cause." "Sara, that's a bunch of bull and you know it." "Yeah, I do know it, but we both also know there's nothing we can do about it. My parents made up their minds and they're not likely to change it." "Isn't there anything you can do?" "I've done everything I could think of. I tried to make them feel guilty, I've tried to ignore them, I've even tried begging. I even cleaned the house- the WHOLE house! Nothing's helped. "Well, we didn't win this contest so that you could sit homw while go around the country with my wonderful sister- who I'll be forced to take if you don't come." "Well, when you think of a plan, let me know. You know I don't want to miss this. How many girls do you know of that get the chance to go to five Backstreet Boys shows in the citie of their choice? I really really want to go, but my parents don't feel as passionate about this as we do." "We're gonna think of something and you're going to come with me. You'll see. "OK, but don't get your hopes up."
