The place was so crowded, full of people here and there. They were intriguing by all the experiments, presentations, and shows. People was discussing about how amazing Galileo was, how stunning Copernicus to know that the earth revolve around the sun, and how E=mc^2 can change the entire world. Yes, you're right...welcome, to the science fair.
In
the science fair, I see nothing; "literally" nothing (from my five senses), but
people crowded here and there. They were like schools of fish that were caught
inside the net, trying to escape. The place was divided into multifarious sections:
experimenting section, presenting sections, and other sections, which were way
much more than I can observe for whole day.

Due
to the fact that science is not so appealing to me, I went down to the food
court to find something to eat. Guess what. It's even worse. The place is
filling up like a night concert that Lady Gaga came (and trust me, I've been
there...you wouldn't like the crowded people as much as the songs). Above the
smell of the fries, tomatoes, potatoes – and all the foods you can name it,
drifted the smell of sweats – musty, moldy, muggy – smelling like my dear old
Mutt's feet. I saw people, tons of them queuing up, making them look like
prisoners lining up to get their food. Some of the people waited
patiently, but some (who are unabashed and brazen), just barge in. Noises of people
talking and laughing, strident utensils clanging—well, it’s just "noises" from everywhere
pass through the air, right into my ears, and running through my nerves. “I
can’t stand this anymore. I need peace and tranquility.” I thought to myself.
Wandering
from restaurants, to restaurants, I found a perfect one, without people lining
up. Feral (due to hunger) and fatigued, I ordered the food without even
caring what it was. Now at this moment, I knew that I could just devour an
entire whale!

After finishing my food, my tummy was fulfilled, which made me satiate. Then, I
checked the clock. It’s 12:45pm. Thank God. The school bus is leaving at
1:00pm. With gratification, I excitedly paced myself to the bus. Well, I knew that I
suffered so much today. But...I also knew that I wouldn’t be suffering
anymore; I’m going home!
