Personal reflections-Day 2

The Victoria School Dragon Boat team had won many gold medals for Victoria School. It was just this year that I realised how tedious but fun the training were. I was asked to join the team last year but I did not, I thought it was a waste of time and it would be very boring. However, it was only when our school's Dragon Boat team was seriously lack of people and could not take part in any competitions that some of us decided to join Dragon Boat this year. We did not want to see Victoria School ending a tradition that has been passed down for many years.

It was when I joined in for the first training this year that I realised I had made a right decision after all. Although the gym sessions and the physical training sessions were tiring and straining, it was fun as we were able to communicate with each other when we are doing the activities and sometimes joke about other things. I personally am fond of the gym sessions as I find that although they are very tough and tiring, there would definitely by rewards. I would be stronger at the end of the day and there was nothing to loose.

I already had two trainings this year, and both were equally fun and interesting indeed. They were both held in this week, on Tuesday and Thursday. There was no doubt that our muscles would ache but if we were to think a bit further, all this suffering would be made worthwhile.
