The
high elements left me a deep impression. I took part in all the high elements.
It was really fun as most of the activities were my first time trying it. For
example, the flying fox, rock climbing and abseiling, I have never tried any of
it in my life before, except rock climbing. It was a whole new experience for
me.
Before
we went for the high elements, all the while I doubted myself, Will I be able
to complete high elements? Aren’t I looking forward to this? Why everything
seemed to be so scary and different from what I had seen during the camp
briefing? Will I be able to overcome it? Or shall I just back out? The angel
and devil within me were having a debate in my head. In the end, I decided to
give it a try.
When
I was preparing for the flying fox, I was really excited and I had been looking
forward to this activity ever since we were told during the briefing. On the
other hand, when I was standing at the four level high building, waiting for my
turn, I looked down at the ground; my leg turned as soft as jelly. At the same
time, my hands and legs were shivering as if I am standing on the snow bare
footed during winter. Finally, it was my turn for flying
fox. I was quite afraid, at the same time excited. The moment I pushed myself
forward, I was being pushed through the wind and I felt really cooling. As I
slows down and I came to a stop, I felt really relax and stress less.
Till
now, I still could not believe that I actually overcome and faced the
difficulties myself. Often, the memories came back to me and were flashing in
my mind over and over again. I had learnt that we should never say no before we
even try. If you never try, you will never know what the results will be. This
is something I will not be able to learn in school. I believe I will have more
courage to take up challenges in future.
