HAPPY HOUR

This morning, I went to Bukit Cahaya. Along with me are some of my friends and two teachers. We gathered at our school at 8 a.m. It was a class trip, so we rode a bus. The trip only took a while. Maybe about 20 minutes.

Once we arrived there, our class teacher Ustaz Yahya gave each of us a paper. He want us to list the things we see in arabic language and their meanings. The student with the most words will win a little prize. So I started to list them. Most of the words are copied from several of my friends. Oops, the cat is out of the bag... Nevermind that.

The first place we visited is the cempedak orchard. The land was filled with cempedak trees, full of cempedak in it. Ustaz Yahya bought two cempedak and we ate them together. I don't like cempedak, but I ate two of them somehow. It was sweet for the first one, but when I ate the second one, it didn't taste that good anymore. Ustaz Yahya ate a lot though, and one of my friend almost throw up after eating a cempedak.

The second place we visited was the cactus garden. It was full of cactus and the land was stair-like land. We took a lot of picture. A picture for every floor we climb. That is it! We climb the rocky stair, barehands! I got a small cut at my right pinky finger. It was exhausting, but it was very joyful. That's it for the cactus, off to the third destination.

Then we went to the 4 season house. It was RM3 for every person and RM1 for every child. I managed to fool the ticket cashier. I got the child ticket! That was a some saving. LOL. Anyway, back to the story. It was autumn. The temperature is 7~2 degree celcius. It was so cold. The building was small and I'm done touring for the first 10 minutes. When I am out of the building and was in the warm and outside world, my spectacles got all blurry. LOL. That was a surprise.

The last place we visited was the animal farm. We saw many animals, but I can only remember horses and porcupines. Most of them are birds. I remember a parrot, a funny parrot. It make loud noises to attract visitors, and it plays dead, and it whistles. We didn't actually came to the animal farm to watch animals. The real reason was to swim in a pool there. Before swimming, we prepared ourselves, eating lunch, solat zohor, go to the toilet etc.

At lunch time, Ustaz Yahya gave the prize for the "arab-wordlist-competition" winner. I didn't win. But I get a prize for the lucky draw. I get a notebook and a pen. LOL. Okay, we dived in the water at 2 o'clock. The pool was reserved only for our class. It is from 2 to 5 o'clock. Yahoo!! A big pool only for 41 people-39 children, 2 teachers! Ustaz Yahya tought us how to swim, for those who don't know how to swim of course.

Ustaz Yahya asked us to make a front-flip. Most of us can. But then, Ustaz Yahya asked us to make a back-flip. I was like "Huh?? Who can do a back-flip?". But then, one of my friend, Aizat showed up. Everybody was cheering for him. Aizat smiled and prepare for the back-flip. Then he jumped, and he did a back-flip! Wow!! Then everybody tried, even me...... nobody succeed, except for the class monitor Azim. So we swam for two whole hours, playing ball in water, swimming race, breath-hold-competition etc.

After the swim, we changed our clothes and prepare ourselves to go back to school. We rode the bus and head to school..... HAPPYLY!!
