My
holiday
Last
Sunday, I and my friends went to Pandan Wangi beach. We went at six o’clock in
the morning. We went there by riding bicycle.
First,
we fixed the bicycles to make sure everything is good. Then, we decided to bring
some foods and beverages. So that, we went to Alfa Midi to buy them. After that,
we went to drug store to buy some vitamins in order to stay fit riding the
bike. At the drug store, we also bought some medicines for Dayu’s grandmother. Therefore,
we visited her at hospital and gave her some fruits and medicines we have
bought before. There, we prayed together for her quick recovery. Next, after
fifteen minutes riding from the hospital, we arrived at the beach. We took bath
at beach and collected unique shells. After taking bath, we had breakfast
together. Soon after that, we went back home at nine o’clock in the morning. It
was an exciting experience. We had so much fun and felt really proud being able
to help other in need.
