p/s: it’s gonna be real, long.
I woke up by 6.00am. Immediately got so disappointed because it was raining very heavily outside, seemed to me it had just started. But had a thought that we still have time for the rain to stop, felt a little glad later. Took a warm bathe, shivered when I got in my shirt and jean. Had breakfast. 7.20am, time to go.
Getting nervous as I get nearer to school, I can’t wait to meet up with my girls. But, I was so astonished to see no cars in school. Only 1 guy, 1 girl and Puan Chan was waiting by the office. I looked at my watch, 7.36am. They should be arriving by now, but why there isn’t anyone at all. Called up the girls and they said they’re coming. I got off my car, and suddenly people started coming out from the canteen and cars started to come in. I was real, excited by then.
8.20am. Finally, we went up the bus. It was still raining outside though.
On the way to our first destination, I kept on running around, taking pictures and changing my place randomly. “Why can’t you just sit down properly?” teased xiang ting, lol.

I got tired, sat down for a while and then continue camwhoring.
After don’t-know-how-long, we arrived at the Dragon Fruit Farm.There's this big headed monkey who caught all our attention. The farm owner said that this monkey smokes and loves to eat dragon fruits! Unbelieveable. "Hey, we're here to see the dragon fruits, not the monkey eh." joked Puan Chan as all of us rushed towards to see the monkey.
We tasted the Ice Blended Dragon Fruit too before we went up the bus. The drink was so cold that xiang ting and I took turns to hold it, lol. We all thought that we can enjoy it slowly on the bus, who knows the driver said no. And we all hurried to finish it, my taste receptors were all frozen after that. The funniest thing was Francis and the other two form five-s had just bought the drink when we need to take off to the second destination! haha.
Next stop, Longan Farm!
"Can you believe that there are bats in this area?" I asked xiang ting when the farm owner said the fences are made to scare away the bats, who love longan. And then the farm owner (as if answering to my question) pointed to one of the fences, there really are a few bats trapped at the fence!
Along the pathway, there are a lot of pricky plants beside. "Do you know what plant is this?" asked Puan Chan. "Serai is it?" answered Vivian Chong. "NO! This is pineapple plant!" we all laughed. When the farm owner asked the same question again, Puan Chan said "Someone said this is serai!" lol.
As the farm owner continue babbling on about the longans, Puan Wong came near to me and stared at me. She whispered (sort of) to xiang ting, "I'm going to stand near her and see ..." "See what teacher?" "Regina, you put make up is it?" I was like, what? Is my lips really that red? My, oh my. "WHAT? Teacher where got!" I said, quite loudly actually, following by a few hushs from behind. Gareth said, "The farm owner not happy you all not listening to him ah." Wing Meng standing beside me mumbled something, which likely isn't nice.
Later we found out they plant bottle gourds at the farm too. Immediately everyone rushed over to see the rare plant which we don't used to see in city areas. "See all those city children, taking picture of bottle gourds!" teased Puan Chan.
Potato factory was the most un-interesting of all. We went there just for the toilet actually, lol. And the potato chips too."The uncle says the toilet is behind, very large one!" said Puan Wong.
"Very large one huh? lol." said xiang ting and I.
"Yeah, also don't know why they need such large toilet." we laughed.
Puan Chan was walking toward us and asked whoever wants to go to the toilet, it's at the back. I joked, "Puan Chan, the toilet very big one ah?" "Quite lah!" We laughed. "You girls go first, check is it dirty then only call me!" said Puan Wong before we went, lol. Xiang Ting went in the wrong toilet after that. It was hilarious, we didn't realize the sign was showing - men's toilet! But nobody was inside, so no big deal. HAHA!
Got up the bus and headed towards the Ling Zhi and Mushroom Factory."Regina, why wear hair band today?" asked Gareth.
"Uh, hair not looking nice mah, so yeah."
"Thought you wanted to attract attention?"
"Nah, I don't like attention much."
"But you attracted me!" Gareth flirted and I laughed, lol!
Everyone's stomach started growling. And next stop is seafood! Along the way, I came out an idea of waving at the passer by-s. We got real insane about it. Because the people really did waved back at us and laughed! hahaha. Especially Yen Theng, she was having so much fun waving at the people.
Finally, Bay View Restaurant! We headed towards the rocks to check out the sea first before settling down at the table, lol.
And for lunch, I was laughing all the time even though I've tried hard not to. Jun Ken Zhao Xuan Wen Jie Gareth Wing Meng Jun Wei sat with me and my girls. That's why I had a really nice lunch with them.(I'll let Yen Theng do this part, I couldn't think of any words to describe)
After our lunch, we went to take a look at the sea view once again (it doesn't look nice at all I tell you!) Then, people started climbing down the rocks. I almost slipped as I jumped down the last rock and landed on the beach. Everyone started taking group pictures by that time.
And I accidentally caught Anthony being emo that time, lol.
We all rushed to the toilet to change later."Wow, you all like bride who needs to change into her second gown!" said an aunty who also joined our trip.
"lol." Xiang Ting and I giggled.
Francis who was standing at the bus door whistled when Xiang Ting and I came in with shorts. LAUGH-OUT-LOUD!
Everyone changed into summer suits and off we headed to the coffee factory. I predicted it as a big factory, who knew it turned out to be just a house-base business! And it was really, hot in there.
"Why black and white one?" asked Zhao Xuan.
"Because I like it black and white."
"Hey! People is very good in photography one ah." said Chris.
"Oi! Can you see I'm standing here?" said Wing Meng, lol.
Caught a glimpse on a pretty flower as we walked to get our buns.
And here are our freshly made buns.
Finally, at last - BAGAN LALANG BEACH! Everyone got so excited when we almost arrived at our last destination.*screams* Wing Meng and all other guys ran towards the ocean just immediately the bus stopped! And the screamings wouldn't stop, woah. It felt so happy, seriously. I've missed the beach and waves so much. Something odd was nobody was at the beach. Something awesome too, maybe. Cause it's like we owned the beach, HAHA!
Girls wouldn't stop taking 'Jumping' pictures! (Got a little emo around here as my camera suddenly went - no battery) And guys started splashing like insane madness! Later, we started running to get kites that was bought by Puan Chan. Xiang Ting and I had one hopeless kite which I managed to fly up for a few times (I got so freaking happy the first time it flew up!) but always dropped down. And after I handed the hopeless kite to Yen Theng, guess what? She, with Teck Lai's help flew the kite real high! They screamed for my name as it went up, and I raised up my thumb. Awesome, really awesome.
Xin Ying and Wing Meng's kite stayed up so long, so faraway in the sky. As I looked up, I thought some of the birds might even crashed on it, lol. Vivian Chong Vivian Lee Jia Xin was scribbling words on the beach, so lovely. While I prefer spending most of the time alone, walking on the sea with the waves hitting smoothly on my legs. And the wind blowing softly as I tried to search for something nice, aah. (I already started missing that feeling right now) I had never felt that relax before.
We all felt so unwilling to leave the beach as teacher asked us to keep the kites and cleaned up our body. Now the funniest thing happened, the nearest toilet to us was unfortunately closed. (why would anyone close a toilet anyway?) And then, we started walking on the road - desperately trying to find a toilet!"Let's go and wash in the sea la!" someone shouted.
"I bet you guys wouldn't wanna leave the sea later."
"Won't one la, walk so far."
"Later come back from the sea, dirty again."
"I carry you back la, okay?" joked Zhao Xuan.
"Yeah yeah, then who carry you?" lol.
At last, we've found a toilet which is about 3 km away from our destination. We took seriously a long time to get there. And those guys who wanted to shower stunned as they looked at the sign board - BUANG AIR RM0.30, SHAMPOO ..., BERUS GIGI ... so on. While we just washed our legs outside.
Finally everyone finished cleaning up and got up the bus. Everyone started exchanging foods, passing on the foods, asking who wants? who wants? lol. Then, Wing Meng asked Puan Chan to on Michael Jackson's Concert in Malaysia, which Wei Loon brought along.... people started falling asleep as the bus drove on.
As the concert went on until the song Beat It, everyone suddenly woke up. Funny thing eh, because that's also when we've arrived at school.
This trip had been a really great experience! I'm really looking forward to the next class trip. Last but not least, I love my best friends who really brought joy to me in this trip :)
