On the second day, my group members and I had to face a challenge known as ‘The Wall’. We had to find ways of getting each and everyone of us over the wall. It was considered a very tough task to us as the boys in my group were quite slim and not as strong as compared the boys in the other groups. However, we were persistent enough and still managed to surpass all the difficulties.
To my despair, it was raining and so some of the activities had to be cancelled. I had learnt one of the habits of mind which was to think flexibly. Our trainers led us to one of the dormitories where we spent the time playing games to bond our friendships.
After lunch, we headed on for rock climbing although it was still drizzling. From this activity, I learnt to be more confident in whatever I will be doing and never to have doubt in my own limits.
I was very unlucky to be given the most difficult station of high elements to walk across. There were two thin strings and nothing to grip onto for balance. Before I started to walk on the strings, I lost my balance and fell. It was an embarrassing sight though I did not give up and managed to carry on until I finally completed the task. From this activity, I realized that I could actually go that far.
18:30-22:00
My class had our campfire preparation in the dormitory. Every one of us was very cooperative, we thought and communicated with clarity and precision and we did not hesitate to give ideas or to question and pose problems.
On the campfire, I was a bit depressed that we did not perform very well. I appreciated all the efforts the members had put in so it was disappointing that we failed to do the best. At least, we had shown to ourselves that we could be really united in ways.
