♥ WOW we were IMPRESSIVE
It feels like a century ago that I came up to write a post.
Heh heh. Yesterday's SJAP routine training was surely full of fun. Before going for it, I was thinking that, "Aye... the same old thing over and over again" and I had an apprehensive feeling in me after seeing the message being passed around that the training's gonna be a tough one.
Luckily it was just a "rumour" but it was reallyu a surprise that despite this message, almost the whole squad turned up, probably our highest attendance rate this year.
The casualty evacuation we had during first aid reignited my desire to treat and save people in need. Being able to carry out what I was supposed to do successfully and seeing the pleased expressions on the instructors' faces certainly gave an overwhelming sense of achievement. Being lavished with praises further boosted the squad's morale and the atmosphere was so gay throughout the following activities. It felt great to be able to share a common sense of pride and pleasure. Smiles blossomed on everyone's faces, laughters was everywhere and our response, so powerful.
The activity of gripping onto wooden sticks for our squad mates to climb over was also very thrilling. When it was my turn to climb, I was initially afraid that the others would not be able to stand my weight but that was only a passing thought as it was then that I realised that this was the thrust people had always been talking about. On the sticks, stepping forward posed as a psychological barrier but having crossed it, all the fears were washed away, leaving only the sediments of fun and joy.
The last game of ice and water with the instructors was the best. Our strategy was such a clever idea! When I saw a group of our squal mates clumping together, I had initially thought that they were already caught and hence did not bother to pay attention to them. It was only later that I realised that I had also been tricked them. They were actually just pretending so as to trick the instructors who were the ice to hide the water who had not been caught amongst them. Since the instructors were just concerned about the people who had not been caught even once, the people who had already been caught could protect the others since it did not matter for them to be caught a few more times. During the second round, somebody even suggested for everyone to clutch onto their shirt from the back to confuse the instructors on who exactly had the bandage which indicated that they had not been caught even once. Ha! Our squad 还真是骨灵精怪！
只有兴奋与欢乐才能让我难得地卸下了心房，袒露了最真实的自己。所以我总珍惜这种时候。这种回忆或许不会再有。
