Aye, Genting Highland!

After a long and tiring work, last Saturday, that was on 25th of July, my school trip to Genting Highland finally came to reality. Hooray! Although many obstacles kept cropping up when I was handling the trip till the trip was nearly cancelled, I felt the organizing of the trip was worth my efforts because I learnt a lot of valuable experiences on how to have a trip, how to communicate. etc. Most of all, I could go to Genting Highland where I always dreamed to go to.

It has been a long time since I first stepped foot in the vicinity of Genting Highland and tried the exciting games available there, till I could barely remember when did I go to that place. Hence, I was very excited for I could go to Genting Highland again.Thunderstruck, the day before our departure to Genting Highland on Saturday, I received a shocking news from the advisor, Mr. Thamlarason - the principal urged us to cancel the trip if possible due to H1N1, which has spread widely in our country and killed a few lives. I was irritated. All my efforts might have gone to waste.

Luckily, because we had paid the deposit and the money could not be refunded, we had no choice and we had to go to Genting Highland, and this was what I badly wished to happen. Still, we had to take care of our own safety as a result of the dreadful H1N1, all of us had to wear masks during the trip for proctection.

Well, I had a great time in Genting Highland. We went to the Snow House, experiencing the white snow and the extremely cold temperature in the room. I finally experienced to emit steam from my mouth, which I always wanted to try! We also had a scrumptious buffet there. Best of all, I tried various types of exciting games in the Theme Park, where I hadn't gone for a very long time.

Overall, the trip was a success although the time given was too limited. I would particularly wish to thank Miss Nanthini, who had taken great pains to deal with the staffs of Genting Highland to give the best to us, and I have to stress here, RM 30 per student (the exact price was RM 37 but RM 7 was subsidised by the school) for a package that included Snow House, buffet and Theme Park was really cheap. Every student who went for the trip also said so. Thank you very much, Miss Nanthini! Of course, I also want to thank Mr. Thamlarason who gave me the opportunity to handle this trip and I did learn a lot of things from that. I learnt how to organise a trip, how to communicate with the school authorities to ask for their helps and approvals, how to deal with obstacles, and how to control a group of people. Thanks, sir!
