ICT - Field Trip '15 - '16 Integration

                                                 Excursion: One Last Time

                Last February 24, 2016, the Grade 11 Students of Manresa School (Batch '15 - '16) had an educational field trip wherein there are two itineraries assigned for us: Kamay ni Hesus and Batis Aramin; both in Lucban, Quezon. After the 10 years I've been in Manresa School, that day was the last field trip of my high school life, and from it, I really enjoyed being in the itineraries for the whole day.

The first itinerary: Kamay ni Hesus; the experience being right there isn't something new because I've been there once with my family. Going there once again brings all of it back, the memories. This place is said to be a place where healing masses by Fr. Joey Faller are held. From below, there is the healing church. The journey to the top was an adventure of different proportions where as I approach further atop, the view gets more astounding and the breeze fills me with life. A place of religious wonders, a place that I'll always remember from the first time, and this day, until all the time that I can go there.

Finally, the last itinerary: Batis Aramin; the climax of the whole day of the field trip. All the fun and happiness happened there. From the time I've been to the hall, the excitement filled me. All the time in the venue, lots have been done such as ziplining, rappelling, going to the human maze, doing team-building activities, and also a cooking demo of the famous pancit habhab in which it is served to us afterwards on a banana leaf. After everything that happened, I never wanted to leave the place, but I have no choice than to leave. The place made me feel a lot of things I've never felt before: the camaraderie, fun, and all.


               Overall, the last field trip of my high school life was full of fun and happy moments that I'll be able to cherish forever. In all the places I've been, I learned a lot about life, as well as the culture and history of the city and the places. From the time I arrived at school to the end of the whole field trip, I enjoyed and became happy and stress-free for the whole day.
