Field Trip...tired!

Hello again,

Phew!!! What a long and tiring day that I had today. The school organised a field trip to Dewan Bahasa & Pustaka ie. the National Libraries. Around 8.00am, the two classes of Form 1 including my class (Form 1 Alpha) were on our way to the 1st library located at the Capital which is actually quite closed to the school. Being the 1st National library, the building was rather old and quite cramped. We were given a guided tour by one of the staff and around 8.45am we were 'off' to the 2nd building which is located in Jalan Airport Lama, Berakas. This 2nd National library is rather spacious and we actually rather 'drain out' with all the walking & viewing the various sections.

By that time, our stomachs were making 'growling' noises and that's when we decided to visit the library's canteen and bought some drinks and snacks. We were so hungry that we bought 2 bags of chips to share among ourselves. As we were munching away, we proceed to the library's hall. Actually, we were still munching our chips while the librarian was talking...to think about it, well it is actually quite rude to do so.

It was really an enriching experience for myself & my friends. We were taught by one of the staff the techniques of drawing 'life-like' cartoons, write articles and so much more. At the end of the day, we were given a free bag each containing educational books & magazines published by the Dewan Pustaka & Bahasa.

When we started to return to the school, it suddenly rained heavily. Since the school bus was parked slightly further from the main building, we had to run and got ourselves wet. By no means, it deter us from enjoying ourselves in the bus with the boys (as usual, sitting right at the back) started singing baby songs such as 'twinkle, twinkle little star', 'ABC' and the famous Barney song 'I love you, you love me.....' to much giggling from us girls sitting at the front. What a day to remember!

So far, this is the most 'joyous & fun-filled' school field trip that I ever had. To everyone out there, have a great afternoon!
