My Class Hike
I join OVS class hike on January 27. It was amazing. I had a hard time to hike to the top and enjoy the beautiful view on the top of the mountain. I also have fun when I hike down. That day was my 14 years old birthday. I’m very lucky. I can have a specific birthday. I like that class hike day.
In fact, that was my first times join a long hike. I and my 8th grade class mates went to a place called the Nor Hoff Peak. It was a mountain in Ojai valley. The hike was really hard, it was 12mil. We spend 3 hour to get to the top. I try to follow the boys, but they are too fast. I hike between boys and girls by myself. The world was quite, I can head the wind blowing on the leaves. The sun was warm; there were some clouds on the sky. I can fell many things I never fell before. The trail was rocky and steep. I spend almost all my energy to hike to the top. There were many kinds of plant I never saw before on the side of mountain. I saw some interesting trees with red skin and many lovely flowers. We hike higher then higher. The mountain was green and good-looking .I can saw the whole Ojai valley and many orange trees were full of bright golden oranges and fields and gardens.
Later, after two little water break, we rich the top of the mountain at noon. I was so tiled. I spend almost all my energy to hike up. I‘m so exciting when I saw the ocean shinning far away. I never saw the ocean in this way. I will never forget it. I walk faster and faster. I never feel that the ocean is beautiful like this. I want to rich the top quickly. I was so happy When I actuality stand on the top. That was really high, I fell I can catch the cloud. I was very lucky. The class hike day was just chance to my birthday. I had a little party on the top of the mountain. I never think about I will hike 13 mil on my 14 years old birthday and have a birthday party on a mountain. Mrs. Cassidy took some really big cookies as the desert and everyone sings a “Happy Birthday” to me. I was very exultant. At last, all 8th grades took a picture together. We spend a little long time to do this. We want to give this picture to our school master. He will leave next mouth. Also this is our last class hike. We will leave this OVS either.
After take pictures, we hike down. Hike down in easy then up. It was relaxed and fun. The trail was steep and rocky. My feet were sore. I almost tumble in many times. But I don’t need to spend too much energy to walk. The sun still shiny, the cool wind was blow on my face. It was not hot any more. That was the best weather for hike. We talk, laughed, and make fun to each other. Some boys were hiding on the side of the trail. When girls came, they jumped out of the boscage to scare them. We screamed and laughed. That was a wonderful time. We also made another unexpected thing~ All 8th grades catch up the bus! That was the only time during 10 years! We were very pride with this.
