Male Female

I've been going a lot last year since my school organized many field trips, and one of them made me feel terribly uncomfortable. The trip was to go to the nearby cities, Harlem cities, so that we could experience the Harlem museums. We also had a chance to have fun at the amusement park. It was so great until we went home. Normally, it only takes one and a half to two hours maximum for us to get back to our school. However, the car stopped several times due to the bad traffic jam during rush hour. I think it would have been fine if it had only stopped for a bit. It was not a matter of time, but the number of times the car stopped. The car was shaking, and I ended up losing everything I ate that evening since I have very bad motion sickness. Whenever I think about this car trip experience, I just cannot forget the smell of the mess I made after the car shook.
