My Trip to London
On September 5, 2005 My School had to select a few students to attend a conference at Villar High School in England. Only a handful of students could be chosen and among them all, I had the chance of being selected as one of the lucky few. The moment I heard my name, I didn’t know whether I should be excited or remain stunned. My body and mind was a whirlwind of thoughts and emotions I couldn’t express all at once. I could only begin to imagine the thought of going to England with my classmates. I wasn’t the only eager one, my classmates shared my enthusiasm.
That night I was barely able to sleep, my mind kept wandering to the thought of going to England. The following day we were taken to the embassy to get our VISA cards by our teacher, who was joining us on the trip. A week later my VISA finally came through; I could barely contain my happiness. It wasn’t long after, we packed up our bags to go to the airport.
For many of us it was our first time flying. I was curious and I felt anxious at the same time of being up in the air. After a tiring, exhilarating flight the plane landed at Heathrow Airport. We were all startled at the sight of the massive facility. It lived up to its name as the largest airport in the world. I couldn’t speak for the others, but I was exhausted. I was grateful for the chance to take a quick break and relax. After another while, we finally reached the location that was arranged for us to stay at.
My friend and I chose to stay in a room together. We were no longer tired; instead the night was full of laughter and comical stories. I lost track of how late we had stayed awake. The next day, bright and early we arrived at the conference hall at Villar High School.
Our school was one from many from around the world attending this conference. The topic selected was global warming. It began with a lecture on the topic at hand and it was followed by a theatrical performance. After, all the representatives from each
