MY VERY FIRST UNFORGETTABLE ESCAPADE
Actually, I’ve never had experienced a long term vacation ever during my childhood days. I’ve been to many places but only here in Iligan City, luckily those experiences are always in me.
Four years ago, it was my very first time to go Cagayan de Oro city. It was in my high school days when I was a first year high school. Since, my science teacher requires us to go with the field trip because it has something to do about the lesson. With my curiosity and willing to go to another place I never been, I insists and really ask my mother to allow me to go to the trip.
The next day, I am very busy in preparing my things for the trip-foods, money and others. There are many things that run on my mind that day, like- if what will happen there, what things am I going to see there and etc.
Then the field trip day came, everyone was so excited, even I can’t hide it. On our way to the trip I saw the different views and spots that are so very beautiful. I even saw the factories along our way, and as far as I remembered, me and my classmates, teachers and others saw a small accident along the way. So, I’m a bit nervous on that. We are so noisy inside the bus and very busy chatting to each other, some are singing some are so very braggart that they told us that they’ve gone in that place. We also eat inside the bus, some also are sleeping, but I am not sleepy that time because I don’t want to miss everything along the way.
When we arrived there at the destination- “MACAHAMBUS CAVE AND PARK” I am so amazed with what I saw. We’re all very excited to get inside the cave. It was very dark, gloomy and cold inside it. I’m a little bit afraid but still I am willing to continue to go inside. I saw a bat, but not just a bat, but many, many bats inside! Unluckily, it rained yesterday, so it was slippery in the destination. After we got inside the cave, we rest for a while inside the bus and take our lunch and have some refreshments. Our next destination was the SM Mall in CdO. So I am excited so went there and buy some “pasalubongs” to my friends and for my mother. I was also amazed that mall is very big, because that time there is still no mall yet here in Iligan City.
We ride back to the bus after, on our way back to school. We are so busy again chatting about the trip. When we arrived in Iligan City, it was quiet late at night. The driver dropped us at the school. Lastly, we bid goodbye to our friends as we go to our respective houses. When I arrived in the house I am so very talkative to my mother and told her what had happened on the trip. So I’m very happy and satisfied that day.
