Singapore Airlines was fantastic. Seriously. The food was awesome, the dessert was awesome, and not to forget, the staffs were good-looking.

Anyway, we reached Jakarta at about 1 plus and took a bus. We had to from this plain looking white box. Yes, if I could draw tht box here, I will. It will look like some normal Maths cube diagram where they ask to find the volume. Okay, it was THAT plain. I actually thought the food was going to be as notmal as the pathetic box. Turns out that it was SUPER good and I actually finished it. :) Hhehehe. Or maybe I was just too hungry.

Had a long bus ride and reached the school. It was drizzling. When we reached the school, we were treated like total VIPs. There was this random paparazzi which took our pictures too. Okay, weird I know. The welcoming was great and it created a deep impression on me. If the welcome was like this, I wonder how much better it will become when we actually get to know them. :D

After spending awhile there(they showed off their trophies and stuff hahahah), we boarded the bus and headed for the hostel. Guess what? We got lost. I think the time there was only 6.30 but I tell you, ITS VERY DARK. I think like, 12 am Singapore darkness. Okay, so it was kinda scary. I think Hakanah posted a vlog about it on facebook. Go check it out.

Around 9++ (?) we finally reached the resort. Had dinner and got our keys to our room. I was roommates with Fatin and Dahlia. Okay, we were like freaks trying to open the door. SERIOUSLY. We were like praying praying praying at the top of our voices before opening the door. When the door finally opened, we stood there, and examined the room. Okay, nothing. Then we moved in. The lights were all switched on and the air-conditioner was already on. We felt save as there was light. Went in, took off our shoes and began unpacking. We didn't bathe as we were scared, uncomfortable and we didn't sweat at all.

WOKE UP LATE. Still made it in time for breakfast. We didn't have classroom experience I guess? We went straight to the Batik Factory. I totally screwed up my Batik, tyvm. Oh, when I was complaining, one of the teachers complimented my Batik. I guess it was because she pitied me and I was making too much noise. Not to mention, my shoes has all the Batik ink on it and it can only be erased away by carosine oil. So, Ms. L asked me to ask for it from a room. It was freaking dark and I was scared, so I brought Hakanah with me. I'm so glad that Hakanah was willing to help me, heheheh. :D

We spent like, 12345678 hours in the bus. Okay, I was exaggerating but yes, we spent alot of time there.

Finally, we reached Kampung Sunda. The view. was. amazing. I'm not kidding. It's not the usual high-rised building that you see everywhere in Singapore. It was this huge plot of green land with dispersed traditional buildings and padi fields with mountain as its background. It looks like some perfect painting.

Okay, so we spent time eating there. It was awesome! Some people found the drink very disgusting but amazingly, I found the drink quiiiiiite okay. The food was marvellous. I can't describe it. It doesn't taste like those hawker centre food, it tastes more original. While we were eating, the Sec 3s were having their activities. After awhile, it was our turn.

First, we planted the padi seedlings. Got my hand in soil. It felt okay, its not that disgusting. The soil is soft, and it looks like a pond full of sh**, but then when you get into it, it feels kind of okay. I mean, its not everyday that you get to do this! After that, was the buffolo ride! Oh, the soil was mixed with bufollo sh**. The texture was different compared to the previous one. There was this, rough balls of god-knows-what in there. Okay, I admit, I was curling my foot when I'm inside to feel. Okay, I'm not disgusting okay. Anyway, the bufollo was urinating while giving me a ride and its tail won't stop moving from side to side! Luckily the urine did not splash on me. Whew~

Then, we went to a small pond to catch fishes. At first, I was so DETERMINED to catch the fishes but when I saw its mouth floating around, I got scared and moved away! Okay, I was a scaredy cat. -_-

After that, we went to the river. IT WAS MAD FUN. We got closer to some of the Indonesian pupils by having a water war! Okay, for slow people, it is actually just splashing water at each other. Too bad, the time we had there was too short. Oh, did I mention that we had to go a long way before reaching the river? Yeah, basically we had to got through a route that is slippery, muddy and scary. As in, you can fall and hurt yourself anytime. But we all survived it. :D

Went back into the resting area. We were all wet and we didn't bother to change. Suddenly, the rain started to pour. It didn't seem to stop, so we all need to make way for ourself to go to another hut where the stage was. We shared umbrellas and stuff and reached there safely. Then, we watched the show put up by them. The girls dancing was pretty and the entertainers was kinda funny. :D

After that, went back into the bus. It went up a hill and headed back to the resort. :)

Wednesday

WOKE UP LATE... AGAIN. Got a little scolding from Ms. L and boarded the bus. Went to the school and had classroom experience. Was with Nadirah and out Bogor partner was Joshua. We were in for the English lesson. :) After the lesson, one of them introduced herself to us. Her name was Nabila and she was very cute and had a pretty baby face. :D She was the first person to talk to us. After that, we had to go. ): Went to Taman Safari. Not much, it was just sitting in the bus and getting close with the animals there.

Went to a market I guess. Not much things were there. When we got off the bus, there were clingy men trying to sell their products to us. Of course, we ignored them but they stalked us around. I quickly bought keropokz and went back into the bus. Had a fun time gosipping a little and then everyone came back and the bus left, heading to the resort.

We got comfortable that night and bathed. I helped Dahlia and Fatin wash their shoes, then dried them. After that, we fooled around, drank coke and slept.. :D
