My malaysia week

I went to Pualu Perhentian Besar, an island for my Malaysia Week, but first if you don't know what Malaysia Week it is it doesn't matter since you don't go to my school. Well, I can tell you a bit about it. Malaysia week is a week where you go somewhere in Malaysia and do stuff, away from home and TV and stuff like that. Next I am gonna tell you my story (well story-like for the paragraph after this at least. The third and fourth paragraph is not story-like)



I got out of my bed on Sunday morning at 2:00am (I had to get to school before 2:50), brushed my teeth (yes, be surprised, I do brush my teeth!) and changed my cloths. I looked at the time and it was 2:30am already, I didn't have time to eat breakfast so I told my dad, let's go! When I arrived school there was a bunch of people already there, waiting for the buses. It was still dark, the kids and the parents were all chatting away. A few minutes later, the two buses arrived. The parents started saying goodbye to their children and my dad did the same to me. Soon I got on a bus and waved goodbye at the window to my dad as the bus started to pick up speed and before I knew it, my school was out of my sight. During the 8 hour bus trip I just talked and talked to the person next to me. When we got the harbour we took all out luggage and switch to a boat to get to the island. The boat ride was so awesome because it was windy and raining, the waves were HUGE! so it was a bumpy ride. Nothing much happened for the rest of the day cause all we did is got a wooden cabins on the island, rested and ate dinner.



For the next few days (Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday), we pretty much just snorkeled, I saw tons of corals, fish and sea turtles the down sides for me in snorkeling is that I get dizzy and sea lice kept biting me. We also spent a lot of time on the beach (getting sun burned :P) to build sandcastles or to dig a hole. We did some hiking too for getting somewhere else on the island. At night we played games and did some writing. On the third day we were at this snorkeling site and we get to jump off a bridge that was like 10 meters high! And we also had B.B.Q. that night too but we were outside where ants kept biting our feet and getting on to the table eating out food! On the second last day we camped outside on another beach toast marshmallows to make smores. It was a good thing that I was still a little awake when it started pouring rain! When it was raining, I got so darn cold and I had to pack and move my stuff, put on my shoes (which were really hard to put on) and we HAD TO HIKE BACK (THOUGH A FOREST) TO OUR RESORT IN THE DARN COLD RAINY NIGHT!!!



On the last day we woke up early, did what we had to do ate breakfast and played games till the boat arrived. The boat took us back to the harbour where we got on the bus which we took before and BANG we are off. As usual, I talked and talked but then I felt sleepy so I fell asleep. My friend next to me did something with me when I was sleeping but till this day, I still don't know what he did...When it was lunch time, we stopped for McDonald and I ate A LOT! And before dinner our bus had reach my school already. The parents were so happy to see their kids again but some of the kids weren't so happy to see their parents. But all I know at that time was "phew, I made it though the week and boy am I glad to be back! Oh home sweet home!"
