Unfolding The UNFOLD

TM SANKAHANIE SURAWEERA

We were about to unfold an unforgettable weekend We the Oasis toastmasters were rising and shining early morning on 06th November 2022 to travel from Nittambuwa to Kandy The punctuality barrier started with the last member picking up since she was doing her hair in the saloon while we were still sleepy, and it was around 500 AM I should thank God for not having such a fashion sense to disturb my sleep

After fetching all the kids of Oasis, we were heading towards Kandy To begin the journey with the energy our first stop was for breakfast After having a peaceful and mouthwatering breakfast the disaster begins We had a gorgeous lady in a saree in our bunch who had a special role to play in the event Woefully her pair of heels did not allow her to end up in the location in style But she was lucky enough to have an Oasis Family member who had the same shoe size and she ended up wearing a glamorous saree and a pair of gents’ sandals

The team started the journey again with the “All is Well” mindset All the things were flowing smoothly until one of the three cars messed up the way toward the correct location Anyway, we ended up in the correct place on time. The day was well spent, and all members enjoyed the day except me who had to run here and there as a result of being an official for the event.

After buying all the groceries that we needed for the planned fun night of our gang, before ending up at home for the weekend we headed to a place that has a breathtaking view at night We had fun and spent around an hour in Kandy viewpoint and took some memorable photographs

On that night we had the best fun night ever eating, singing, and dancing Not only that but also, we had deep chats on different topics, cookery classes, debates, and yoga classes until we slept around 200 AM

The next day the plan was to visit Sarasavi Dola at the University of Peradeniya On our way to the Sarasavi Dola, we learned a lot about pigs also Do not wonder how but try to get the hands-on experience since it will be worth the effort The trekking to the place was fun and tiring at the same time because we all had one big specific problem on that day But Sarasavi Dola was worth the trek

After all these difficulties we had fun, had a bath, had our lunch, and returned home. While we were back home, we did not forget to have a hot cup of coffee from a small boutique where one of our members had his dream girl and buy some sweets for our family members who were looking forward to meeting us and having some sort of medicine in their hand for stomachache.

This is the unfolding story of our journey after the Unfold 2022 Division Conference of Division F, H, and K.
