Field Camp experience

It's isn't tough, but it's make me realize more things about myself. And learning points that I learnt,through the activities. The defining moment was capturing when I managed to overcome what I thought I'm unable to do it. It's was a task to dig shell-scrape. We are individually allocated to a empty soil land, and are to dig the shell-scrape about our body size and of a certain depth for us to hide well. We are giving 2 hours at the start. When people starting digging, I'm still in the midst of measuring the outline of the shell-scrape. When I starting using the ET stick and blade, I realized the soil is damn hard. My mind already started to give up and even if it given a day for me to dug. I wouldn't have completed it. None the less, I still try my best to dig as much as possible. But the process was slow. Soon after few hours, the commanders gathered us and give us a good lecture. The letter which our parent wrote for us came into place, ignite a spark in us to work hard and doing our best even though we are going through toughness. We got back, dug doubling hard. Kept telling myself, I'm doing this for my family. There always this saying of sowing and reaping. How hard you sow equal to how hard you reap. Actually digging shell-scrape its not that hard, as long as I continue to put in effort. I will see the fruit. It's goes like this. The ground soil has two layers, the hard soil on top, the soft soil beneath. The soft soil is the catch. I got to dug through the hard soil in order to see the soft soil. When the soft soil revealed. Everything will be done much faster, because there another method that can be apply. Using the soft soil to crack the hard soil on top, and the shell-scrape will be soon completed. I guess many things in life is like this, it's seem hard at first, but as long as I persist, I see eventually see the fruits. It's encouraged me greatly. Will remember this experience.
