I was excited, today was the day that our lovely form

teacher Mrs. Wickham was going to give us the class

consent forms to take home to our parents. We were
going to a field trip to Tobago for the weekend. As a as a
matter of fact it was not just a weekend it was the
weekend before test. Good morning miss the class all
declared as the stood to welcome her presents with
smiles on their faces. Everyone was hoping that they
would be picked to go. She had already determined that
only a few of us would go. The rest of us she said would
stay back and prepare for the task ahead.
Everyone sat quietly and waited for miss to finish calling
the roll, only speaking to answer present when their
names were called. Roll call today seemed to be
exceedingly long but soon the moment had arrived.
Okay these are the names of the students that were
chosen to accompany me to the trip to Tobago everyone
at this point in time with their fingers crossed and---------- breaths and closed all eyes waiting to hear their
names called.
Keifer, Chad, Amanda, Shanelle, Jovelle. was that all I
thought I didnt get to, and Keiron James that is all. I
couldnt believe it. I was going to Tobago. Miss further
instructed us that we would have to bring in our consent
forms and money by next week and immediately briefed
us on the rules of this field trip; they were fairly
reasonable and quite easy. No alcohol of any kind!, no
cigarettes! no drugs

The days were long on the countdown the big day , but
finally it was here. I was packed and all ready to go and
before I knew it I was on my way. Eventually I met up with
the rest of the class at the air port. There were no
problems and because of such we cursed right through
check-in and were making out way to the plane. We
boarded the aircraft, were seated and soon to be off. The
mechanical voice which seemed to be that of the pilot
was heard instructing everyone to buckle up. Within a
minute I felt a drastic shaking somewhat like an
earthquake and felt the aircraft moving. I looked out of
the window as the aircraft began to pick up altitude and
until the huge lights on the runway of the airport became
nothing but little stars.
Tobago I thought , here I come!
