I arrived here last July 15, 2012. This is my first time to come here in Philippines. I felt v

ery good and happy. But the weather was very hot so I didn’t like it.

I came here to study and learn more about English and Math. My older brother told me a

bout CIA because he used to study here. When I first met other students, I felt very hap

py. Students were very funny and kind to me. My first friends were Jun, Eric, Chris, Pa

ul and Harold.

They were good and funny. I first met them at the airport. Jun first approached me and s

aid “Hi Nice to meet you. What your name?” So I answered back at him and said “Hello

my name is Robert. It’s nice to meet you, too.” And that’s how we became friends and t

hen followed by Harold, Eric, Paul and Chris.

When we were together we usually talk with each other and played “Fact Game”. I had

many experiences here in CIA camp. My first week here, we rode zip line and we went t

o SM because we had SM mission. It was a great experience, that’s my first time to ride

zip line. Next activities were City tour and SM mall shopping. During City tour, we went

to Crocolandia.

It’s amazing experience because it’s my first time to saw crocodiles. It was scary. And I

also saw snakes, ostrich, turtles, blue birds and fishes. They were very nice especially bl

ue birds. And we also went to Fort San Pedro, Magellan’s Cross and Sto. Nino Church.

It was great! The next activity was Home visit. I went to Teacher Steph’s house.

It was big. There were many chickens and also there were lizards. It was very clean. I ha

d fun especially when I played with other CIA students. And the food was delicious and

amazing. I ate very many and I drank many juice and also I ate fruits like banana and ma

ngo.

Next activity, we rode Jet Ski and banana boat. It was very funny. Jet Ski was fast, it’s li

ke I was flying and banana boat riding was very funny, too. But it was very dangerous. I

like CIA Camp because teachers were very kind and they taught us English very well. M

y favorite experience was when I rode a Jet Ski.

Yes! I like to join CIA Camp again because teachers were good. And I want to study hard to be good at English and I also like and love Philippines.
