Bintan Trip 2010















On 8 to 10 November, we went to Bintan, Indonesia. We had lots of fun. From the trip I learn something very important, teamwork.
On the first day, we climbed Mount Bintan. It was fun but extremely exhausting. It was tough at first, but as time went by, I found it easier and easier. I managed to reach to the summit of the mountain. Going down was the challenging part. It was much more painful as we have to slide down here and there. After all the challenges we face, we went to a resort called 'Agro Beach Resort'. After we had our bath, we went to eat at a restaurant in the resort. The food was great! After our dinner, we went to play a game called 'Animal Call' at the beach. It was really fun. From the game, I learn how to practice teamwork. After the tiring day, we had our free time and went to bed.
On the second day, we went to alot of places. We had our breakfast at th resort and we learn a 'Makan Cheer' from our instructors. We had to do the cheer before we start eating. After our breakfat, we went to the Fish Collection Center. It waqs sad to see the fishmonger cutting off the shark fins. Next we went to the landfill. I felt pity for the villages living near the landfill. Then we went to the waterr village. It was sad to see that the water was full with rubbish. Some of the houses are made of aluminium! As we were walking, we say colourful jellys in egg shells. Lastly. we went shooping for the orphans. We bought alot of things for them. As we behave ourself during the trip, our teachers allow us to have free time. After the shopping, we went to the orphanage. I was happy to see them as it was my first time visiting the orphanage. We were told to guide them in making the mask making. The next game we played was challenging as we have to make aeroplane out of paper. The plane that fly the furthest wins. The sad thing was to say 'goodbye' to them. My friends and I cried as they were hugging us and asking us to come back. On the way to the bus we were all in tears. Next we went to the restaurant. It was beautiful! The next thing our instructors us ask to do was to listen to a song. That was the part when everybody cried. We realise how fortunate we are. We take things for granted. Next, our instructors ask us to write a letter to our parents. After all the crying, finally we get to taste the delcious food that was already serve on the table. Next we went back to the resort. Instructor Zul brought us to the beach and sang for us a song called 'Linger'. Next he ask us to look at the beautiful stars in the sky and there was fireworks! I was so touched when our instructors do that for us. It was a wonderful night and the LAST night my instructor and I will be together.
10 November, the last day of the Bintan Trip and the last day my instructor and I will be together. As per normal, we had our breakfast. We had our free time. My friends and I took photos with the instructors (for memories) Next, we check out from the resort. We had lunch at the seaside first before boarding the ferry back to Singapore. This will be the most memorable experience ever. I will miss those day we are together guys. I will miss the orphans. I will miss th instructors and lastly, I will NOT forget this Bintan Trip!! :)
