Spectator Sport - The Science Fair


The place is unequivocally big, crowded, and loud. There are booths everywhere you look, showing their specialty, with people looking with their two big eyes. People roamed around throughout the stadium like a buzzing bees, and the loudness cause by them make it impossible to hear each other’s voices.


I got this picture from here.
I got this from here. 
The place is filled with small booths, arranged categorically like a chess board. Everyone was eyeing on what the booth is showing, some new interesting innovation due to science. There are gigantic models of scientific stuff everywhere, showing multifarious things unseen before.There I walked pass all these innovations and I feel surprised with my mouth and my two big eyes wide open. I felt for an instance that I was in an expert science fair, acting like a young scientist. I walked around and saw these extraordinary things I’ve never seen before – A free fall experience, space ball, etc. Above all of them is a fossil of our long lost friends, the dinosaurs. It is big, hard, and scary to begin with. There are children everywhere, digging the sand to find the fossil. On the left side, there were shops opening, which they sell exorbitant stuff to children. As I walked through the fair, my stomach began to roar. I walked down stair with all my friends, and I was wondering where to find food to satiate my hungry stomach. I sit down there quietly, filling myself with good stuffs and energy. 
Ready for more observations, I moved up back to the crowded fair up ahead. My legs began to feel weak, when I actually came to the best part. I saw many things on the other side of the hall, which I felt I should have come and see earlier. My mind vacillated between choosing to observe more or going back to the meeting point. With my leg feeling weak, and big arms feeling lazy, not able to write down anymore notes, I decide to walk back up there where I saw my teacher calling for me. She was telling me to go back to the meeting pointMy heart was half-filled with happiness, and another half filled with the desire to observe more, after which it change to feeling of satisfaction. I was satisfied to have come here, and that is the feeling that holds me as the wheel of the car start rolling back, toward EIS.
