Traveling alone
The idea of traveling alone shock me, it has come to my awareness constantly
but I never imagine it would come so quickly. The idea excites me but thinking
about it make me retract from my decision. Unexpectedly my mother told me that I
have to travel to New York, so I can acquire some paper for her instantanelly I freak
out being a minor and traveling alone without knowing what to do but in some weird
case I feel blissful and enthusiastic because I will see my family. The fact that my
mother is trusting in me make me feel more independent but I don’t kwon if I can
handle all that pressure. Thinking I’m on my own is a big thing, I wonder what would
happen if I get lose or take the wrong flight.
The day before the flight I was packing my stuff while my mother look at me with
a big smile and crying a lot, she wasn’t sad at all, she told me that she didn’t
imagine I would grow up so fast. I finish packing my bag and couldn’t lifted it was
totally full and heavy as a rock, so I need to take out some clothes but didn’t realize
how late it was. I needed to sleep because my flight was early so went I got to my
bed I couldn’t close my eyes no even a bit I was so animated that I didn’t sleep at
all. My mother went to my room discerning that I was prepare but she found an
astonishment I was sleeping and didn’t know went I fall to sleep. I woke up hyper
and surprise, my mother told me that I was late so I hurry up on everything and in a
blink I was ready to take the cab.
The cab arrive and my mother hug me tightly and shaking I guess she didn’t
want anything bad to happen to me. The cab was almost arriving to the airport and
all the things that could happen came to my mind in an instant, I was so nervous
that couldn’t speak clearly. I was in the line waiting for my turn looking everywhere
and a tall lady with a uniform ask me for my parent, I told her I was alone and my
hands staring sweating and shaking, she laugh and stated that’s ok big boy keep
going that way and follow those people. The big door open slowly with a freezing air
coming out I was waking without knowing forward to it went I realize the people that
were next to me weren’t there so I started to panic looking everywhere without
even thinking correctly and another kid look at me I think he was in the same
situation so I wake forward to him and ask him for a big surprise we were both in
the same situation and traveling to the same destination. Went we stop talking we
manage to find our gate on time and get on the plane without any problem.
The plane departure, we were talking about our life and how everything was
affecting in this traveling and started to laugh loudly so the maid call us to say we
needed to be silent and calm. The rest of the flight was clam until we almost arrive
the Capitan speak through the speakers to inform us there were going to be some
turbulence we got shock and didn’t know what to expect. The plane was shaking
and everybody was screaming and praying I didn’t know what to do so I put my
head down thinking about my Mon. The Capitan again speak through the speakers
say we were almost landing I rise my head and look through the window and saw all
of this big buildings, the plane landed and everybody was clapping and laughing
loudly. While we were getting out the Capitan was at the door had shaking
everybody and look at me smiling and say good job big boy I know you’re traveling
alone and smile at him while walking out of the plane. At the airport everything was

almost the same as the other so I was started to feel more comfortable. Went I
finish going through all the lines I went to the big door with my need friend and his
family was there waiting for him, he say good bye an leave. I was looking for my
family and couldn’t find it went I was to start to panic from behind I receive a big
surprise they were all looking at me with a big smile.
At the end of the journey I was pretty happy we everything, it makes me realize
that I need to take care of my own went my families is not with me. Even though I
got scare a lot of the times I didn’t tell nobody, they were all proud of me it makes
me feel more comfortable being alone. I meet a need friend and both of us
challenge our fears and insecurities that was a big plus. I encourage everybody to
travel alone a least one time in their life so they can fell the freedom of traveling
knowing you’re alone.
