Second and
final day.
3.30 AM
(Hirasah time.)
Insyiraah,
Ameera, Aisya and me woke up for Hirasah. Same goes to Yusof and three other
boys.
We all
gathered at the non-existing fire place at the benches where there sat Lao Shi
Mohd and Teacher Fara. There, I saw buns, bread and biscuits. I took one bun
and ate it.
“I love
hirasah.” I said with a mouthful of choco bun.
“Do you love
the activity or just the food they prepare at night?” Yusof asked me with a sly
voice.
“Mostly the
food.” I said with a giggle. He shook his head and looked away.
As we sat on
the bench, we read surahs. Suddenly, my stomach ached. “Oh my god my stomach
hurts like crazy.” I said.
“Maybe it’s
because you didn’t wash your hands before eating. Besides, the tent was packed
with sand on the floor.” Ameera said to me.
“Well
whatever I did, I regret.” I said while hugging myself. As we were reading
surah Asy-Syams, suddenly a dog came.
“Dog!”
Shouted Yusof as he pointed to a figure in the distance. We all looked where he
was pointing. Lao Shi Mohd grabbed a rubber whip and walked towards the dog.
From the distance, we all could see what was happening.
Lao Shi Mohd
wasn’t hitting the dog (at least that was what I saw… huhu.) He was just hitting
the rubber whip on the ground to scare it away. After a while, Lao Shi came
back carrying stuff in his hands.
When we
arrived at us, I clearly saw what he was carrying; a mat and some food. One of
the food was anchovies in a plastic.
“Ameera that’s
our anchovies right?!” I whispered to Ameera.
“You’re
right!!” Ameera whispered back.
“One of the
girls’ group left these outside near the table. I think that’s why the dog came;
it smelled the anchovies.” Lao Shi told us. Ameera and I didn’t tell Lao Shi
that it was actually our mat and food. So, we just sat there quietly.
At 3.40 AM,
all of us were told to go around the other groups’ tents for guarding. As I was
doing so, I heard someone snoring from tent number 8 or 7. Aisya and I let out
a giggle and teacher Fara said, “Don’t waste time.”
“Yes
teacher.” I said, still giggling with Aisya.
After we had
done walking around the other tents, we went searching for trash around the
campsite.
“Why in the
world don’t you guys just go and throw your rubbish in the bin nearby? It’s
only like a few feet away!” I said.
“I know
right?” Yusof said.
4.00 AM (End
of hirasah.)
We finished
our hirasah and went to wake up the next hirasah people. After doing so,
Ameera, Insyiraah, Aisya and I went back to our tents. Ameera and Aisya went
back to sleep while Insyiraah and I didn’t. The both of us would have loved to
sleep but couldn’t.
“Oh my god
Hana Humaira smells like coconuts.” Insyiraah said. “And it’s killing me.”
We both let
out a silent laugh. “I’m serious Sister Nuha, she’s killing me with her smell.”
Insyiraah told me.
“Well, we’ll
just have to deal with it for one hour.” I told her.
And believe
me, for that one whole hour, me and Insyiraah just had to bare the smell of
sweat! We would often opened the tent to get fresh air but would later be
caught by the other hirasah team.
“You two can
stay awake but just please don’t make a sound okay?” Said Faiqah, one of the
hirasah team. Insyiraah and I nodded and Faiqah left.
5.00 AM (End
of all the hirasah.)
“Okay, time
to wake up!” I told Insyiraah.
“Uhh
finally!” Insyiraah cheered. “I can’t bare the smell anymore!”
At once, the
both of us woke up the others. After we had done that, Insyiraah and I took our
ablution and went to the hall for Qiyamullail and Subuh prayer.
However, in
the hall, Insyiraah and I couldn’t even open our eyes! We were so sleepy
compared to our condition in the tent! During Qiyamullail, in sujud, I could
hear Insyiraah snoring!
After
Qimullail, we waited for subuh. So, Insyiraah and I slept on the spot. When we
woke up, we both felt so fresh.
8.00 AM
(Breakfast.)
We had to
cook our own breakfast too. Our group had French toast and scrambled eggs. It
was delicious; until Najla and I found eggshells in the French toast.
After
breakfast, we had to wash the dishes. But this time it was easier because not
many stuff was used and burn.
Before we
knew it, we had to go for obstacle run in the jungle. It was a heck of an
activity. There were 10 obstacles and we did all of them I think. When we came
back from the obstacle run, we straight away took water and packed our bags. We
actually packed our bags before the run.
12.50 PM
(Leaving time.)
All of us
were back from the run and lined up according to camping teams. Team after
team, went to take their bags and got into the bus.
When all of
us were in the bus, the bus moved. In the bus, 50% of us slept right away.
1.50 PM (No
place like school. J)
We arrived
at school. I ran into the building where the air-conditioner was cooling up the
room.
“Relieved to
be here huh Nuha??” Syaima’ asked while smiling.
“Like yeah!!”
I replied.
So guys,
that was my camping for two days. In 2 weeks time, a new adventure will be
experienced by me. So just wait, okay? ;)
Jzk!
