This time I woke up at 7:00 am because it was time for breakfast and my body has never felt more lazy than then. Our teacher woke us up and we all ate breakfast. By 9:00 am the other contestants has to go to their competition and come back at 4:00 pm. Before this, the teachers planned to take us on a trip at 4:00 pm yesterday. So when all of us are together, we will go by 4:00 pm and take a trip to places here in the competition region. Back to the story, we were served sausage for breakfast and fish fillet for lunch, it tasted a lot better now that my fight is over. I grabbed some coffee after finishing my breakfast and went to talk with my other teammates from other schools, we had a discussion about our fight but we mostly joked around and laughed our brains out. We knew what happened and we all acknowledge the enemy as someone we have to be better than, "we will make a comeback" he said whilst proclaiming "we can do this, even if it takes another year". The air was full of dedication and a faint frustration, we blamed no one but ourselves for the performance that pailed infront of the veterans but we knew that we had a good fight and a solid presentation. It was soon after 10:00 am that two of my schoolmates had gone to the restrooms to take a bath, so I went to the room to get some clothes from my luggage and almost everyone was just sleeping for there was no wifi in school. I arranged my change of clothes and slept in 'till 12:00 am, I headed down with my change of clothes and lined up for a bath. After taking a bath I went to the hall and ate lunch, lunch was by far the best food they served. I happily ate to my heart's content and drank some coffee before going back up and sleeping till 3:00 pm because my parent's called, the ringtone woke me up and we chatted about my time here in school with no wifi and a disgusting restroom. Of course they would spite and tease me with all that "back in my day, there was no wifi" type of stuff, it was fun speaking to my parents and the call ended after a while. I slept once more and at 3:50 pm, everyone was changing into their clothes for church. I wore my shoes and am writing this segment on the time of 4:16 pm, still waiting for the rest to finish changing. We left school by 4:40 and walked along the road to a church, we prayed for our region's success and spent a quiet moment all together. We left at 5:00 pm and continued walking until we reached an intersection which had the waiting area for transportation, our teacher asked for directions and we hopped on. We arrived at a night market and was window shopping 'till we find what we wanted, as for I, I needed flip flops because I forgot to bring one on the trip and it was a huge hassle to take a bath bare foot and wear shoes without socks every single time. We checked out one then went to the other and I found someone selling flip flops so I went to buy a pair, normally flip flops here would cost a buck/ one dollar but he was selling it for 3 dollars and at this point I needed a pair so I swallowed my pride and bought it from that scumbag. After that we checked out the second market and left to go to the mall, we came to eat at a local food chain since it was delicious and affordable. Which brings us to this point of us waiting for our food at the time of 6:50 pm. After we finished eating by 7:30 pm, we rode back to school before the curfew of 9:00 pm. When we got off, the drivers asked us a ridiculous sum; they asked us to pay up thrice the normal amount. If the original amount was 6 dollars then they wanted to make us pay 18 dollars but that was over priced. It was fortunate that there was a sweet old lady by the school gate whom told the driver the real price that we had to pay which was 6 dollars, the drivers left with a cold stare as one said to the other "What a waste". We heard it clearly, their remarks made their intentions clear; they were gonna scam us since we weren't from there. After that whole charade, we went back to our room and unpacked what we bought. It was 9:00 pm by then so curfew was about to begin, we laid in our brought beddings and watched a movie from someone's laptop. We watched 'The Conjuring' and 'Happy Death Day', both of them weren't scary and were even funny in some scenes. We finished watching at around 12:50 am and were scolded by our teacher who was awake the whole time. We slept in after a good day, This has been the end of Day 3.
