Welcome guys!. I will tell you my story about
an event that happened last august, the educational field trip. Well, this is
my 4th time since grade 5. But this one has a different aspect than the others,
since this is an educational trip, there is one term that I can summarize to
the event, that word is fun. This fieldtrip is like a rollercoaster of pure
happiness. Surpassing all of the previous events that happened for the past
years. It will be in my memory permanently. So lets get started!
The day before the educational fieldtrip - Me
and Brian Monteiro came up a plan that will make the educational fieldtrip
experience more fun and challenging. our plan is to make a great cinematic
vlog. This plan made me excessively excited to the point where I cannot sleep.
Fieldtrip day 3:45 am- I woke up late than my
planned schedule to wake up so I took a shower. Then I woke up my father so he
can cook while I start preparing my stuff for the event. At 5:00 am, we left
off to go to my school. 28 minutes later, we reached Casa del Nino so I bid my
father farewell.5:33 AM - I became aware that my classmates
brought black shoes, then I suddenly realized that we need it for the
performance of the bayanihan at the CCP, so I immediately called my dad. 12
minutes later I received my black shoes.
At approximately 6:10 AM we left Casa del Niño.
While going to our destination, I started recording some cinematic vids for the
Vlog while bonding with Christian and obviously eat food too. At approx. 7:30
am, we reached our first destination, the luneta park. I took some pictures of the park, the view was
beautiful except the photo bomber that really irritates me to the point where I
will Photoshop it.
We soon went to the site were the play will
start. The play focuses on the life of Jose Rizal to the point that he will
die, hence the jose Rizal and Spaniards statues serving the play. Before we left, i learned that Burnham was the
one who built luneta and the meaning of luneta is small moon.
After a few minutes, we left luneta park to go to our next
destination, Intramuros. We arrived at the church at approx. 8:00, this is my
very first time entering that church. The moment i went inside, my mind shouted
ARCHITECTURE due to so much detail, it makes me want to capture every side of
this church!
After that, we walked on the pathway on the
walls of intramuros, in which, if you look it at Google maps, has a pentagonal
shape. Walking on the walls of intramuros gave me the opportunity to finish my
morning exercise, it was very breath-taking.
After a few minutes, we went to the oldest unharmed church in
Luzon, or the rest of the Philippines, the San Agustin church in which was
built 450+ years ago, too bad we cannot go inside due to the occurring wedding .
At approx. 9-9:30, we ate lunch at harbours
square where there are a few choices too choose, we also took some rest for
hours.
After lunch, we took off to go to our next
destination, The BSP coin museum. When we went inside, we first watched 2 films
about the history of money and how money was made. After that, we were informed
the about the rules and regulations.Firstly, i was fascinated about the evolution of
our coins from generation to generation and i even saw my 1921 coin, i also saw
the 100,00 peso bill, in which was the biggest bill in the world at 8x11 inches.
. We reached the national museum of the Philippines. At first, i was indulging the marvellous
paintings made by artists like the Parisian life and the spoliarium while still
aware of the project. Then, it became a little stressful due to the schedule of
it, we hurriedly took pictures for our intended project. After that we were
relieved. Abruptly, our visit to the other museum was cancelled due to stormy
weather and poor schedule time. So we continued our schedule for us to not
hustle too much.
At approx. 5:00 pm, we will soon to reach our
destination, wich is sm mall of asia where we will soon change clothes for the
CCP and eat dinner.
I was then chosen to go to my other friends
instead of my best friends. We are supposed to eat dinner at burger king but i
declined and started finding the restaurant where Christian and co. were
eating.5 mins later, i met them at KFC and hurriedly
ordered and ate my food. At approx. 6:30 - 7:00 which is our call time, we
departed moa, luckily we were just in time to see the dragon fireworks that
occurs every Friday.
At 7:30, we reached our final destination and my
personal highlight in the whole fieldtrip, the CCP. This was our first time to
go here so we instantly took pictures of ourselves. We then took a group photo of us as a Section
then All of grade 11&12
we soon went to the main theatre to watch the
bayanihan@61 performance. After a little while, the show started, it introduced
the many dance cultures with amazing songs and cultures, i was very thrilled
and exhilarated, but it is a bit short, which is a bit disappointing.
After the show we took pictures of the performers
like crazy, we were like super fans at that time. Again I say, This event was
the pinnacle or the climax of our field trip and to my opinion, they scheduled
the best one as the finale to our field trip.
We soon took off at approx 10 pm, we were all
tired at that point. At 11PM, we reached Casa del nino where I instantly went
to my service, in which was my dad and mom waiting. At that point of time, I
passed out.
In summary, this fieldtrip, even though
educational, far surpassed all of my previous experiences. This fieldtrip gave
me so much fun and wisdom that I cannot even summarize, this experience is
basically permament in my mind. This concludes my very long story of my
fieldtrip experience and its highlight event. I
hope you enjoyed my story of my fieldtrip!
