Something That Happened In School Today

Last Saturday, was very tiring but truly excellent. It was then that we had our long awaited Class Barbecue! The start of the day was not very good as I had combined Chinese Orchestra and my section did not perform too well. As a result, we were reprimanded and had to go for a extra practice session. However, just when things seemed bleak, it all changed. After practice, I went with Edmund to Subway in Parkway Parade as we could not wait for the others to meet up and go as a group.

I ordered the value meal and a few mouths into my meal; Gun Hwi and Aaron arrived at Subway too. We all then ate and talked at the same time and were having a great time. Just then, Wei Jie came. We waited for him to eat and then took a bus back to school. It was about four in the afternoon when we reached and we were on time as our form teacher, Mr Su told us to meet at four so we could play out games for two hours then barbecue. Upon reaching, we waited for a while and when the rest of our classmates showed up, we started to play floor ball. Then began the fun and excitement.

We split into two teams as only a number of us wanted to play while the others relaxed and did their own stuff. I was a defender and blocked many balls, not to mention one by Mr Su. Indeed you cannot judge a book by its cover. He may be a Mathematics teacher but he is excellent in sports. The ball I blocked deflected and hit me in the knee, leaving a red bruise. In the end, we won the opposition team but that did not stop there. My friends and I played many more games and we won all but one when a few of us just joint in the game to help the team that was losing by quite a number of points.

Just then, Mr Su came and told us it was time to eat and we all stopped our game, which we would continue later, after we ate. It was then we smelled the strong aroma of food waffling through the air. At that moment, we had a major problem. We were all out of drinks. Luckily, Mun Yong and his father brought a few more large bottles and we were saved. They even drove out to buy some more when we ran out again. After enjoying the delicious food, some guys in class organized a night walk. Many of us wanted to go but we were disappointed. What seemed to be a scary night walk turned out to be nothing as something happened and when we went, there were no scares at all. However, it was still very fun and we made it back just in time for Mr Su to give us a talk.

After the talk, we cleaned the whole place and ate the remaining food. Finally, we all then walked out of school, either to wait for our parents or to go home ourselves. In the end, I thought to myself, “What turned out to be a bleak and boring day turned out to be one of the most fun days by far this year.
