bintan trip...

first day
all of us were excited for the trip.It was troublesome to prepare for the trip, but everyone has to do it:3All of us were all prepared for the rock climbing trip! instructor Zul made us do some warm up, than we started our journey to the mountain!The path was clear at first but when we started to go higher, the path was slippery and more difficult to climb I managed to catch joanna and joseph as they were infront of me. I slide for a few times and fell for 2 to 3 times.I was getting worried:my am I going to make it? will I fall and let go of the rope?will I be in danger? I thought as we climbed higher. But as we  continued to climb after a long period of time, alot of the people in front had slowed down. I managed to keep up with the 'Ace'and syhair we were at the top.Then joseph managed to catch up and we waited for the rest of our class.We were all in high spirts,There was a part that syhair was about to fall, since he was light I managed to grab hold of him and we continued treaking. I also was about to give up at a point near the top but elleora,joseph and syhair  cheered me on and this gave me the determination to continue on.And we were the first to reach the top.But since I used all my strength to climb up the mountain going down was my weakness. I slipped and even did 3 splits. Kahhao and Nick helped me alot and I am very greatful, having friends are really a blessing. I'm happy that we have climbed the mountain if not I  would not have realise what great friends I have around me. I've learnt that without friends we would be lonely and sad, and that without teamwork, class P6A would not have been successful.
Second day
We had to wake up early like my daily routines,and prepare for the orphanage visit.
we went to a place were we saw people taking all the fishes that they had caught to pack them in boxes.We even saw a uncle cutting fins of sharks and throwing the body except the fins away, it was really cruel but that was what thay had to do as a living.
Next we went to a poor village to donate the things we did not need but is still okay for using to them but we did not get a chance to meet them in person  as we were asked not to go out out of the bus we were travelling in, the children who live there had to go to the rubbish dump area and find things that are still able to use back at their home.After that we ate lunch and went shopping for the orphanage. I do not like shopping so during our free time I bought toys which I wanted to give to the children there to do during their free time,but even holding a shopping back makes me want to hate shopping even more!! usually my cloths are what I usually wear on weekends and I only look for technology equipment. Than we headed to the orphanage. We really had fun there, the kids were really happy and all of us enjoyed our time together.When we were going to leave many of us cried I hold my tears because I heard that if you want to make someone happy to tell them you enjoy the stay with them,smile and do  not cry because crying will make them sad to. well after that we had our CIP time.Instructor Afic talked to us about what we had seen and more, suddenly i could not hold my tears it flowed down like a river.We were told to write a letter to our family.All of us except a few cried. Then we had dinner and had fun singing karaoka. I had learnt not to take things for granted and be thankful with what we have.
Last day
We packed up all our stuff and got ready for our journey back.I did get in trouble and was really sorry about it after that accident I'll always think befor I act and think of what I would have to face after what I have done. It really is a trip I would never forgetX3
