MALAYSIA WEEK: Pulau Sibu

Last week was one of the most splendid week I've ever had. I had an amazing trip to Pulau Sibu which means "Island of the Dead Chicken" (I am really not sure why the island is called by that name). I started my journey by taking the 7:30 bus. The bus ride was about 7 hours!! During the bus ride I was singing millions of songs with my best friend, Rionna. I was also eating biscuits during the ride. When we stopped at a stall my friends and I decided to go the shop and buy candy and chocolate. Just as I ate my last piece of candy, we finally arrived at the dock. The boat splashed through the sea as it arrived to the dock. I was filled with joy to know that we were finally almost there!

Cautiously, I hopped into the boat. The boat ride was a very bouncy ride. We were all screaming as the boat bounced on the waves. Finally we arrived at the island. The sea was blue and beautiful. I could feel the breeze as I walked into my chalet.

In the first day of Pulau Sibu, my tribe and I built totem poles and then we went into the sea to enjoy the waves. Then we finally had our dinner which was fried fish and rice. It was really delicious!. In the second day had a scavenger hunt and the prize was 100 plus! I also went on my first jungle trek which was a very splendid experience. On the 3rd and 4th day we learned survivor skills which we used when we went to an island and had to build our own shelter and cook our own food. On the last day it was my birthday and I had a big chocolatey brownie for breakfast and sadly I had to leave Pulau Sibu:(.

I will never forget this amazing Malaysia Week!

On Spring Break I want to stay at home and enjoy free time. I also would want to travel some place that I have never been to.

Hope you enjoyed my peice of writing!
