It was September 2024. I can not recall the exact date, but i am sure that it was September. My uncle organized a trip of Allied School to Murree. Murree is the most famous tour city in my country. Almost every school organize at least one trip in years. I have visited Murree many times but still many historical places are missed. Now, i will go to Murree, specifically for historical places. I love to wander in historical castles,buildings and monuments.
Well, I didn't join my uncle's school trip until they came to my city. May be much of you remember that i live in Islamabad and Islamabad is neighboring city to Murree. School trip made a stop at "Lake View Park" that is just few kilometers away from my hostel.
My uncle called me and requested me to join them.
At first i wasn't in mood to join them as i was not feeling well. I was having very low moment but then i thought that my uncle has requested me with so much heart and i should be there as a sweet gesture. He will feel good.

Though we own school but i refrain myself from visiting school or taking part in any school activities. Actually, i feel anxiety whenever i see a crowd. I have many fears running in my mind.
Long story short, i went there and i found smiles on many faces. I met my family, who came with school trip too. I met my cousins. Almost everyone was happy and enjoying their school annual tour.
Daniyal, my cousin, was much happy than others to see me. He hugged me so tightly that i felt his happiness. He started walking with me and telling me every little activity he enjoyed on trip. From his talks, i assumed, i have missed many things.
I took Daniyal to M1 Traxx, a family park inside Lakeview Park.
Interestingly, we were only two, and it was almost impossible for us to enter. A person was standing near to us. I requested him to let us enter along with his family. He bought our tickets and we went inside the park. It was crazy idea and crazy thing that we did.
A memory got refresh after posing in so many photo booths. I posed for such pictures when i was with my university friends. I was my second time in these photo booths. Daniyal was capturing my photos. Though i was not in mood to be captured but he was giving me special treatment.
Daniyal stood with Character Mickey Mouse and i captured his picture. There were many people who dressed in famous characters and amusing children,kids and people around. I,sometimes, feel for such people who are so pushed by the circumstances that they opted such difficult jobs to fit in the societal matrixs.
Opps, Daniyal isn't able to ride. He has to cut his hair, may be then he would be able π. Even then he won't be eligible for this ride.
The special memory is attached with Horror House of the park. It was my second time experiencing the horrors of Horror House. I was scared to go inside.
I bought two tickets and sat in the train that will take us to the horrific journey. I hold my heart tightly and i made my mind. As soon as, We entered, i started screaming and yelling. It was really horrific experience. I thought that Daniyal would also be scared but he is a kid with very strong nerves. He just screamed once and then he acted normally. Though, i also felt normal inside the horror house but i exaggerated my fear and my scare behavior. I did it intentionally to make it more enjoyable.
I rate this experience of Horror House 10/10. Thatβs why i recommend every other person to go and experience it.
After experiencing the horrors and having mini attacks, we came out in the park, where school fellows were gathered. Daniyal, in all happiness and excitement, told them about his astonishing experience. Daniyal was feeling a sense of privilege that no other person got this chance.
I got surrounded by school boys. They were calling me "Sir". This word makes me feel nervous. Though i have taught them for few months in the school, but this word comes with so much responsibility and it forces me to act in a confirmist direction. That's why i prefer to remain detached.
Ali, another cousin, was enjoying zip line. Many school boys and girls were taking zip line. They have strong nerves, indeed. They don't have height phobia. Otherwise, i am so scared of height. I remember my experiences that was so bad.
We, Daniyal and I, also took ride of Bumper car. It refreshed my childhood memories that i lived in my school days. In this ride, we ride electric small cars. It is like hit and go game.
My uncle, Waqar, gave his kid,Ghani, to me and requested me to take him to some swings and rides. He also gave me 1000 Pakistani ruppee. This was a little unexpected π as he usually don't give me any money.
I took Ghani to many slides and slides. He enjoyed being part of many children who were enjoying doing many activities.
At last, students gathered and sat around dining mats. Lunch was served to them. It was biryani along with cold drinks.
See you next π« π
