Embarking on a Road Trip (Pt. 1 of 10: St. Louis Park, MN)

After waking in the morning, I pack my bags, because my friends and I have decided to go on a road trip. I make sure to bring my hairspray, a pair of clean underwear, $300 dollars in cash, a cooler, my “do it herself” tool kit, and a globe. Now my suitcase is so full that it’s hard to shut; therefore, I instruct my mom (played by Audrey Hepburn circa 1957) to sit on it.

Our friend Stegz is the driver; he pulls up outside my home. Our friend Mickey is also in the car. When climbing in, I bump my head against the door frame and try to laugh it off. My neighbors watch us pull out of the driveway and cruise down the road. I bet they’re jealous, because I’ll be gone for one whole week.

Now we pick up our other friend Chris, who lives in St. Louis Park; then we get out on the highway and drive fast.
