See I have incredibly strict parents once it comes to "socializing" and I really would like to attend a new school, but the school is in Manhattan and I live in Brooklyn and that's about a 1 and a half hour ride by train. My friend who is also fed-up with our current school would like to come with me as well to this new school so how did YOU go about convincing your parents? And any suggestiong on how we can convince ours? Oh and here's a travel schedule my friend and I put together: (Bathe, pack school bag, and Iron clothes night before) 5: 45 - Wake up & Pray & Shower 6: 00- Eat breakfast & Dress & Prepare. 6: 15- Call friend & Catch bus 6: 30: - Meet friend and catch train 6:35 - 7: 50 ( MAXIMUM TRAIN RIDE TIME) 8: 30 - 3: 30 (SCHOOL) 3: 30 - 4: 45 (Train/H.W/Coming Home) Metro cards are provided free by the school.
