I cant avoid going on vacation with my family & i will be very very bored when i have to go. what should i do?

my dad planned a family vacation to chicago (in like 2-3 weeks) and i said that i didnt want to go but, he said he paid $500 for my plane ticket and that hes making me go (he also has this thing about not liking me being alone. i love being alone/by myself and i hate being in public and in cities/big cities like chicago. i dont know why but for some reason most people annoy me. my 1 cousin and my mom are the only people that dont annoy me.). my dad and my sister are going to the stupid hockey convention thats in chicago %26amp; my mom and me are going to just go to stores and stuff. i've been to chicago last year and i did NOT like it when i was there. it was 90 degrees outside and i had a headache every day we were there (the last day we were there i had an especially bad headache but my parents didnt have any advil on them %26amp; that we had to go back to the hotel room to get it. we went to eat lunch first %26amp; we had to walk there when it was crazy hot outside %26amp; my head hurt like helI. in the restaurant i couldnt eat because my head hurt so bad. my mom took me back to our hotel room and i took advil %26amp; fell asleep for 4 hours.). i had to sleep in the same bed as my sister on the first night %26amp; she said that i moved over onto her side of the bed %26amp; she pushed me on the floor (my sister is really stupid). of course my parents didnt hear it happen %26amp; i woke my mom up and she switched beds with my sister.



i have an OBSESSION with anime and japanese music to the point where i cant go 1 day without doing something anime or japanese related. i get very irritable/angry/unpleasant to be around if i dont watch a decent amount of time of anime every day. on the trip im bringing my nintendo DS (i have games based on my favorite anime to play) and probably my ipod (i have japanese songs on it). also i hate walking long distances. my feet get tired really easy %26amp; they always hurt the next day. how can i persuade my mom to stop walking for a while when my feet are tired?



basically, this "vacation" will be 4 days of helI. last time we went for 2 and a half days but, i dont know if i can handle it this time. im bringing advil in case i get a headache %26amp; stuff. how do i stop my head from feeling funny after an airplane lands? my head always hurts after that. i hate airplanes too.



please help me, im not sure what to do in this situationI cant avoid going on vacation with my family %26amp; i will be very very bored when i have to go. what should i do?
Wow you are just like me in so many ways :p i cannot go without my anime and japanese music for days other whys i get super cranky and people just don't wanna be around me. I don't particularly find enjoyment in going out and being around big groups of people im just fine with being by myself although my parents aren't all to happy with that. My advice on the anime is to bring a lab top (if you have one) for when your in Chicago or perhaps downloading some onto ur ipod (dubbed is best) ive got all of Death Note, some Soul Eater and alot of Bleach on my ipod. Carry Advil EVERYWHERE just in case you get a headache, try to convince ur mom to not let you share the same bed as your sis (God siblings can be so stupid) and avoid the heat the best you can. Try not to wear black cloths and long attire, Walk in the shade (if there is any) and maybe a hat (doesn't help much though) That's all i can really suggest though. Just try to survive, it does sound a lot like four days in Hell to me but i hope i might have helped make hell a bit more enjoyable XD

P.S. Sorry i sound like such a downer but im not going to tell you to open your heart and make other people feel full of joy and whatnot its a little annoying don't cha think? When i have people saying things to me like "you think its all about you", "there are other people make them happy" and "wake up with a smile on your face" it just pisses me off all the more i ain't gonna tell you any of that. Live life how you want to its YOUR decision. If you wanna be a clone be a clone. Hardcore rocker? Be one, An awesome anime anime lover? Be one. Its your decision don't let others influence you Be you and only you
There will be day in your life when you will miss these moments with your family. I do ... If you see what you have and what others don't, you will be grateful :)



If you think you will be bored why don't u do some research and find things for you to do.. So many websites tell you different things you can do in any given city.. Expedia-priceline have activity section.. or you can go to Chicago groupon or social living and find something for you. This way you can do some things with your mum and she can do few things with you.



I never understand why teenagers have to be so bitter.. You haven't even seen worst in life.I cant avoid going on vacation with my family %26amp; i will be very very bored when i have to go. what should i do?
Ok...I presume you are a teenager. well, I am a grandma...BUT...please take a few seconds and seriously think about what I say. Right now 2 of my teenage grandchildren are visiting me for vacation. You seem to think EVERYTHING is about YOU! You need to think about OTHERS...your family. In a few years you may not have them anymore and these occasions when you can spend time with them will be important to remember. OPEN your mind. OPEN your HEART to other people. Take interest in their interests. Wake up and say to yourself ,"What can I do to make my Mom , or My Dad happy today...to make their day great?" For 4 whole days...give yourself to others and be the JOY of their lives instead of a self-centered kid who thinks of nothing and no one but himself. How would you feel if you lost one of your parents and had let a great gulf develop between you at this time of your life? Thank God for them and cherish them. You can indulge your obsessions when you get back from vacation. That's my speech, please seriously consider it.
