My name is Jen, I go to school, and occasionally learn things. I love James Dean, Hanson, Sloppy Firsts and Second Helpings by Megan McCafferty, Fall Out Boy, Elton John and Billy Joel. These make me overly qualified to give advice ESPECIALLY since I spend the vast majority of my time watching and obsesing over Oprah.
I've been through some stuff, and watched even more drama on TV, so I can help with your problems, no matter what your story is Wishbone.

wow, i definitely made a mistake, and i was at a house where people were drinking. i only sipped a few thing but i didn't even like it so i didn't drink and i didn't get drunk. i should have called my parents and had them pick me up, and i didn't so now they don't trust me at all. this is gonna spread around school quickly and i don't know if i can deal w/ what kind of stuff people could say. i really want to earn my parents trust back but i know that is gonna take a LONG TIME! i wish i could take everything back. what should i do?

talk to your parents, and explain to them that you know it was wrong, and you regret it, and you're disappointed in yourself. Talk to them about what you should do if you end up in a situation like that again. Chances are they're a little upset because they feel like what they taught about alcohol you didn't stick.
It will take a long time to earn their trust back like you said, but try being responsible in other areas- get your homework done, try not to fight with your siblings, make an effort not to hang out with the people who got you into that situation etc.
You sound like a mature kid, so chances are your parents will come around after they get over their initial anger.
