Undergraduate / Taiwan trip - the impact of this experience and the greatest learning outcome for you [2]
Last year I held a cycling trip around Taiwan for the purpose of conducting a social experiment and fulfilling a self-sense of ego. Long-distance cycling has been proved to be the hardest in all dimensions of cycling and by achieving such an event can certainly boost my self-esteem to an impregnable degree. Meanwhile, the desire to experience the variation among human behavior after physical fatigue and how the individual's response under extreme conditions (cycling in a storm rain) prompted me to plan for the cycling trip. The trip has a significant impact on my interest development, I was amazed by the collaboration among human relationships, as in the willingness in people helping others when themselves were in imaginable condition. In the duration of our 9 days trip, despite all the unpleasant weather we had experienced, the complaints were scarce and my team members all showed a great magnitude of mutual corporations even when they are deliberated. I observed the 4 distinct types of people after exhaustion: considerate, irritable, empathetic and expressionless. The irritable type of personality was my greatest learning source out of the four, I learned the importance of diction selection when people were tired along with the utilization of proper tone when speaking to them. The chances of being attacked by people who tend to get more emotional under fatigue are unable to diminish, however, they serve as an efficient path to peek into different characteristics in a state of extreme tiredness.
(I felt like it can be improved so I need some helppppp)
