Exams in the Pool
Last Monday we had a sudden swimming in the nearby resort again in our house. Last Monday was so hot and that's why my cousins suddenly decided to plan a swimming in the same day. I personally don't want to come because I am having a summative exam that day and I have to attend in class to be able to take that. But all of them decided to go even my brother and sister decided to come that's why I just also come because you don't want to be left out especially all of them is going.
They decided for all of us meet in the gasoline station nearby the resort so that we can all go together and they assigned each house to bring specific foods. My brother just decided that we will bring some fried eggplant and all the utensils needed to eat like paper cups, plastic spoon and fork then a Paper plate and we also bring some rice and a water to drink. We all met up in the gasoline station at 9:30 and we just ride a tricyle to get there while others who have their own vechicle just follow by. When we got there we are literally shook out because there's a lot people in the resort we even think that it wasn't Monday because almost all of the cottage is already rented. There are only 3 cottages left the one near the kids pool,the farthest cottage from the pool and the cottage near the basket ball court. It's literally just almost 9:45 and the resort is almost full. The one that my cousins picked is that the one near the kid's pool because we have a lot kids we us and it's big enough for all of us.
The first thing that we do is to cook while the kids already started swimming we started to cook because since it was literally just plan this morning we have no preparation for the foods at all and most if them have to be cook. Good thing there was a grilling racks in the resort. We just grilled some pork, tilapia and I don't know what is was called and I also forgot to take photos before we eat. But back to the cooking I just helped at the start because I watch over my niece because we are just going around the resort. We stopped for so long in the place where they have some animals like pigeons, parrot, unknown bird ( I don't know what it was called 😂) , rabbits and a hamster. We are just there for so long because my niece really entertain to the rabbit that was eating some grass.
Before 11 am I left my niece in my sister because I have to attend my class because I have to take my summative in one subject that morning. To be honest I am not really the only one student who is also there while answering the summative. Because apparently there's another student that was in the next cottage of us. And I am sure that he goes to the same school as me because I heard them talking about it. I just feel a little bad for him 😅 because ever since I got in the resort I saw him in the cottage alone with some elders and he was taking an exam. And it's almost 11 and he was still not finished. I just don't know if he was at the same age as me maybe he was at grade 11 because he looks so much younger than me.
When I was about to start to attend I am worried that we might need to open cam and I don't want anyone to know that I am in the resort while taking summative good thing my teacher didn't require us to open our camera. While I was answering I heard the an old Lola from the other cottage said that I am also answering an exam same as the boy that she was lecturing. I was so embarrassed because she was lecturing that we students paroritize he swimming than taking exams then see started comparing that boy to the old days when they are just still a student she says a lot of things maybe that student was already irritated 😅 because of this. Good thing I immediately finished my summative because it's just 30 items multiple choice, 10 items fill in the blank and the other 10 was just a simple paragraph about the topic the was written as soon as I finish I left the class because the teacher permitted us to leave as soon as we are done.
As soon as I am done was so surprised because there's more people than we got here and there are still some more coming I saw the staffs of the resort starting to build some shed and provide it with the chair and tables because the cottage run out and there's still a lot of people. I am became scared because the resort was literally so crowded and the pools is full of people that's why I didn't want to swim there. I just go in the pond where they a lot of Koi Fish it was literally amazing because the fish was so big and there's a variety of colors like orange, black and mixed black & orange.
After the few minutes we started to eat already there was a lot foods that we eat and when I am done eating I immediately left and go the pool because the crowd already started to go out of the pool to eat. I go to the pool but I didn't swim yet I just take photos of the water 😂
This was just a spot where there are no swimmers because of lunch but as soon as they finished eating the crowd starts to go back. I don't want to swim because there's a lot people that I don't know and I am uncomfortable about it 😂 and I don't them to see me because I don't know how to swim 😂 literally I don't really know how that's why I am embarrassed when other see in the pool.
After I take some photos I just go back to the cottage. My sister is also scared because there's literally people everywhere and there's still more coming and she asked why they are still accepting guest but my other cousin said that it is because not all times is like this because there's days that there are no guest in the resort and these days was just the resort being popular because of the hot weather and because of this the resort won't miss this opportunity to get back from those days.
I just stay there and wait until 1 pm because have another class that I have to take. After I finished to take my last summative for that day I decided to go at least at the pool just to say that the money we paid is worth it. Then I just stay in the pool in the few minutes and go away imediately because there's a lot of people and I don't like the color of the water 😅. I just go back to the cottage because it was cooler there and I saw my sister and my niece didn't go to at least swim because my sister is scared for my niece because of the large number of crowds. We just stayed there and go around the resort and go back to the pool a few minutes before we left and we already go home. After I got home I slept immediately and woke up at night.
