"Paris? No, too far. Maldives? No, way farther and I'm not a millionaire. Dubai? Nah." I said as I soak my teabag into the cup.
I continued "A solo travel around the country? Uhmmm, Yeah!" I said enthusiastically to myself.

"Sweetie?" My mom asked me calling my attention
"I know you like to take up jounalism, but it's just too late to shift courses, that's not practical. We're sorry we have to move here darling, but your father and I have a better job here and besides, you passed the college here. And there's more to us in here." She said
They just wanted us to move here because Grandma Amber (maternal) will pay us so that we can move here and stay away from
Grandma Annie (paternal).

"Mom, can I go on a solo trip so I can write my own travel journal?" I approached
"Now, darling you can just focus on your course and sooner or later in your life you can travel anytime you want." She diapproved
"Mom, I'm 23!" I groaned
"We want you to be a doctor and we forbid your request!" She shouted back

I went to my room, not to mock or anything, but to plan my trip.
I packed 2 of my DSLR cameras,polaroid camera and film, a few notebooks, pens, other journalism necessities, clothes for the places I expect to go, shoes, sandals, underwear (like, duh), other sanitary necessities, gadget chargers, a huge amount of money and my travelling papers (yah know, just in case)

I wore a blue and white striped romper, doll shoes and pulled my hair up into a bun, I got my American Aparell string bag, put my phone, earphones, digicam, some money and travel papers. I just slinged it over my shoulder, pulled my suitcase, grabbed my keys and headed ot the door. Good thing my parents went out today.

I started my car and went on the road.
