My First Residential
I packed my suitcase the night before so that I would have to do less on the day of leaving.
I was picked up from the INFO shop at about one o’clock.
The bus then went to Flintshire and then to Anglesey.
I went through Flintshire and then Wrexham again to get to Welshpool.
The bus journey was very eventful (Geoff) and we finally arrived in Welshpool at seven o’clock which meant I had been on the bus for six whole hours.
On the first night I met a lot of different people from all over Wales. I spent most of my first night with my friends and this meant I went to bed at one in the morning. My roommate was not impressed that I strolled in at this time.
On the second day my roommate woke me up way too early, for breakfast, at 8am. The breakfast consisted of sausage and egg. After breakfast I had to choose whether I wanted to do a video workshop, creative writing workshop or a photography workshop.
I choose to do the video workshop. I thought that the video workshop was very good because I found out a lot of information.
In the afternoon on the second day I went down a zip wire and also climbed a rock climbing wall. I really enjoyed going down the zip wire because I found it fun. I also really enjoyed going up the rock climbing wall because I felt like I had achieved something when I reached the top.
Another thing that I did on Saturday afternoon is archery. I found archery very good when I got used to it. The final thing that I did on Saturday afternoon is I went caving. I did not enjoy caving as much as the other activities.
On Saturday night I spent most of the time with my friends and I had a really good night. I walked in my room at two in the morning and I was a lot quieter walking into the room which meant that I did not wake my roommate.
On Sunday I woke up, had my breakfast and said goodbye to all of my friends, and got home safely.
