Educational Tour Turns a Day of Recreation.
Angelica C. Mendoza BSA 1-1

Reaction Paper Educational tour turns a day of recreation. September 23, 2011, PUPians need to wake up early. More or less 2:00 in the morning just to come to our campus exactly on time. It is written to our waiver that 4:00 is our pick up time. Gathering my bag filled with my snacks, drinks and extra cloths, I went to my beloved school with an excited feeling. Time runs very fast. We’ve waited for our bus, Bus 1 of Accountancy, for almost 2 hours. By the way we have Prof. Jason Hermogenes in our bus. The tourist bus we are in move beyond 7:00 in the morning. Many students are a little bit disappointed because students including me treasures every minute. We don’t want to waste our time because that is an expensive tour, that it cost P1,300. Anyway, on our way to our first destination, we don’t get bored because of our tour guide, Kuya Jason, who talks a lot, more on history. Topics he gave was very interesting. Until we arrive on the museum. Honestly, I’d appreciate the museum most especially the preservation of the gold’s. I’d also realized how auspicious the Philippines for having that. After the museum, we didn’t attempt to go to the World Trade Center because of the very long line of students who wanted to go in. We the BSA, decided to went directly to Enchanted Kingdom right after the museum. There we have the bonding with my new and old classmates and friends. After that, we went home tired, not so tired, just enough to go to school the next day. Well, according to Louis L’ Amour, a writer, “it is always easier to travel than to stop. As long as one travels toward a promised land, the dream is there; to stop means to face reality.” It’s over, today that trip is just a part of past. It can only be seen through memories. Tour time is a rest day. Away from brain draining exams and bushy

    Mike introduced me to the museum due to the connection and significance that it has for him and his family. His family, being partially Jewish, was persecuted during the Holocaust by the German Nazi army. Going around the museum gave me insight on what his family endured in the concentration camps which most of the time, these places exceeded the carrying capacity. While we were going through the right side of the museum, there is a history wall of the rise and fall of fascism and birth of the Jewish Holocaust and how It affected the Jewish Nation. Also, on the wall were some pictures and descriptions about what took place at the time and the struggles the Jews faced during World War two. We noticed some names of the concentration camps in Europe marked on the…

As a waited in line I meet a student of Colombia College he told me that you do not have to pay to get in donations are welcome. I was confused and unsure what he meant.

    Paul Fussell once said, “All the pathos and irony of leaving one’s youth behind is thus implicit in every joyous moment of travel: one knows that the first joy can never be recovered, and the wise traveler learns not to repeat successes, but tries new places all the time.” Going around the world would be a fascinating goal for the future. Meeting new people and getting to grasp what the world is like . Traveling would be interesting to do in the future because first I can challenging myself, second the adventures, and third to appreciate life.…

    One of the main purposes of travel is to gain experiences that allow us to grow and develop as individuals and it is important that people travel the way that bests suits them at a particular time. For example, I like to go on adventure holidays and this invariably includes a small group and expert guide, and I frequently participate in writing retreats around the world with like-minded people. However for me, the real joy of travelling has always been to take off on my own and just 'see' what comes along the way. Of course this can sometimes be fraught with frustrations, difficulties and even dangers.…

    I would like to tell you about my visit to the one of the most beautiful museums in the world The Metropolitan Museum of Art. It is located in the east of Central Park, being, in fact, part of it. The main entrance is the majestic and pathetic. The building has several floors are spacious, and each of the gallery halls like immerses the visitor in a parallel world. Whether it's a bloodthirsty Aztec god figurine, rock reliefs by the ancient Sumerians, harmoniously ancient statue, sarcophagus with the mummy of an Egyptian or a famous painting of Van Gogh it seems that there is nothing in the museum of the secondary.…

    Have you ever visited Washington DC? Last night, I watched a TV program about Washington. Did you see it, too. If it’s on again, be sure to see it. What an interesting city Washington is. Dr. A Rogers, the narrator, took us viewers on a tour of the White house. Did you know that the White House esn’t painted white until 1817. If I were Washington, I’d like to tour the United States Capitol at the foot of Pennsylvania Avenue. I’d also visit the Smithsonian’s two underground museums: the Arthur M Sackler Gallery of Asian Art and the National Museum of African Art. Last year, my sister visited the Holocaust Museum, but she didn’t have time to see the National Air and Space Museum because her plane left at 1:30 p.m..…

    Ayala Museum

    Little did we know, when we were sent on a field trip to the Ayala Museum, what we would see there. All that we were told was that it was an "educational field trip" and something to do with Filipiniana.net's advocacy of anything and everything Filipino. So, we were really in for a treat when we set foot on the fourth floor of the museum and a short film started to play the moment we stepped inside the sliding doors. "Gold of Ancestors: Crossroads of Civilization", it began, and went on to show some gold artifacts that had been found on archaeological digs all over the country. We were mesmerized from the very first one. Then, just beyond the small chamber where we were viewing the film, we caught sight of the display cases containing the very artifacts that were now flashing on the screen. After that, we could hardly wait to go and see them up close!…
