Yesterday, I went for the class barbeque in school. This barbeque was the class outing.
Last year when we were in secondary one, we did not have any class outing. Mr. Su was not very pleased with this so he decided to have this barbeque this year. We had a few activities before and after the barbeque. We had to change into our very own black class t-shirt with our names printed at the back. Cool.
Before the barbeque, we played some sports. Some played soccer, while others like me played floorball. Some simply watched others played and did their remaining homework. Sure enough, only some of us helped to barbeque the food that arrived first such as the fishballs and the “otah-otah” which is also made from fish.
Others just waited for the food to be ready, lazing around. Even though the food was barbequed at 6pm, not all the food was ready at 7pm. I ate a bit before I asked for permission from Mr. Su to go to the mosque for my evening prayers. I managed to go to the mosque with Hilman and Danial.
When we came back from the mosque, some of the barbequed chicken was ready. We ate a few pieces before gathering for the night walk. We were known as the “nightwalk committee” and our job was to scare our classmates when they arrived at the places where we were “guarding”. I was still scared even though I was the one scaring people. Whether I’m being scared or to scare others, I’m still afraid because I am afraid of the dark…
It is quite embarrassing to say that…
Then, the night walk was cancelled. This was because some of us was not co-operative and spoiled the fun by telling the others where the nightwalk committee members will be waiting to scare them. I was quite pissed off as I have been waiting to "scare" my classmates all these while. Never mind, next time guys...
Nothing much happened after that. We continued eating until it is time for us to leave. The barbeque was supposed to end at 9 pm but by 9 pm there was still so much food to finish. So I quickly eat my share before my parents called to say they have been waiting for me for over 15 minutes outside the school. The area around the canteen was pitch black. As I was walking alone along the canteen to leave the school premises, I thought I heard footsteps behind me and saw a taller shadow beside me when the lights from the cars on the road shone on the floor of that area. I was scared but tried to ignore it. I quickly dashed and made my way out of the school gate. Whew was I scared! I enjoyed this outing, but it would be more enjoyable if the nightwalk was not cancelled. That is all for now.
