"Are your things ready dear?" Mum asked over dinner
"Yeah. i've packed everything that I would be needing. thanks for this mum, dad" I said, smiling widely at the most loving parents ever. This year, i'm gonna be turning 18 and here in the Philippines, celebrating your 18th birthday is a must because they said that it is the stage where a girl grows up to be a lady. it's a filipino tradition actually. to have a debut and whatsoever but I don't like partying and wearing gowns and dancing and such. all I wanted all my life is to go on a trip to London. why, you ask? Because for me, London is the most beautiful country ever and the people's accents are good. If I had a british accent, i'd never shut up. never.
oh wait, I forgot something.. oh yeah, right. my name. well i'm Moira De Castro, Filipino, 17 turning 18 this coming September and I play the guitar. brown hair, brown eyes, fair complexion, petite body. just an average girl living an average yet beautiful life. :)
"Moira, are you listening?" mum asked
"huh? what? sorry" I said
"i said, take care of yourself while you're in London! you're not familiar with the place and the people there so remember, don't talk to strangers" mum said and I laughed at her statement
"what? what are you laughing at?" mum asked
"don't talk to strangers? really, mum? all the people there are strangers! I don't even know someone from there!" I said and my dad chuckled "what if I got lost and can't find the way back to the hotel? how would I go back if I don't talk to the people around me?"
"fair point made. okay. but be careful. ALWAYS BE CAREFUL" mum said, emphasizing the last three words
"i will mum. jeez. no need to worry" I said
"m'kay, so here's your pocket money for your trip there, you have your ticket, right?" Dad said and I nodded "okay, money, check. ticket, check. phone?"
"uh, yeah. my iphone won't work there unless you text me through imessage or if I get it unlocked there" I said
"as soon as the plane lands, go straight to the hotel and go to an apple store after and get your phone unlocked" Dad said
"okay. sure" I said with a smile, finishing my dinner
"excited?" mum asked
"super!" I said and they smiled
"well go to bed and sleep tight. you don't want to wake up late and miss your flight" mum said
"okay. goodnight!" I said and I went straight to my room, brushed my teeth in the comfort room and got ready for bed. see you tomorrow London. :)

(Following Day)
As i'm on my way to the airport, my heart was beating fast with excitement and I can't seem to hide the huge smile that was plastered on my face when dad turned the radio on and a song called Little Things started playing
"Your hand fits in mine like it's made just for me.
but bear this in mind it was meant to be.."
"oh yeah, of course One Direction's song is playing" I said sarcastically
"what's that?" dad asked
"nothin'. just excited for this tour" I replied. i'm not a hater of One Direction nor was I a fan. I'm familiar with some of their songs but yeah, not a fan. sorry not sorry.
"why do you hate this boyband so much?" Dad asked
"i don't hate them. i'm just not a fan" I answered "it's just that they're too mainstream that almost all girls I know, know them and are addicted to them and you know I don't like mainstream"
"whatever you say" mum said this time "but I sort of like this song" and I rolled my eyes at her and after awhile, we finally reached the airport. my mum's beginning to be a directioner.
"remember, call, text, email, skype, facetime. every means of communication. okay?" mum said
"alright mum. i'll keep that in mind" I said
"i'm going to miss you!" mum said, hugging me tight and dad joined in
"take care hun" dad said and I replied with a smile
"thanks for dropping me off" I said and they hugged me again and I made my way inside the airport, waving goodbye at my parents. London, here I come!
