Okay the thing that works best with my mum is to get her in a good mood.. And sit her down and talk to her and tell her i know Ive done stupid things in the past blah blah.. But please let me use this to prove to you that i can be trusted.. Say you'll be really sensible and grown up about everything and that it means so much to you.. See how that goes
Good luck!

Speaking as a parent, I don't think there is too much you can do in this short amount of time to change there view of you.
I suggest you use 08 as your year to make better choices and show them that you are responsible and then maybe next year they'll trust you enough to let you go out on New Years Eve.
I'll tell you like I tell my children when they make dumb decisions. "better luck next time". You made the choice to be stupid, if only for a moment, live with the consequences of you actions. that's the 1st spet to being "mature and responsible"

If you were old like me you would ask how can I hide on New Year's Eve? LOL.
You will have to earn trust in your life before you get respect and get to do activities. I know it is hard when you are young....but it will pay great rewards if you use empathy and respect others feelings. Have a good Christmas and remember your parents are just trying to do what is best for you.

you already said the magic word that's trust. .there is no good way to convince your parents, you could tell them lie after lie but if there intelligent they will look right through your fibs and know your not telling them the truth, you need to be honest and just do whats right..some of those dumb choices could really you into a lot of trouble.becoming pg at a young age or or worse.

Try acting like an adult, but if you did a COUPLE dumb things, I guess you blew your chance of doing that. Trust is a hard thing to lose.

Probably nothing
If your parents don't trust you, partying on New Years isn't going to be the first on their list.
