Today was a fun day with exciting and inspiring activities. White water rafting was filled with intense yet friendly water fight between members of different boats. I really enjoyed the competitive atmosphere between the different groups but not so much the physical exertion required to move the boat between the exciting parts of the trip.
The drumming performance given by the teacher and young student group are really impressive. It gives me a different perspective to music; before coming to the trip I was more used to listening to the western jazz style of drumming. However after watching the performance I realized how interesting and awe-inspiring Taiwanese Aboriginal style of drumming can be, I will definitely pay more attention to it in the future.
The final activity of the day was the inspirational speech by Stanley Yen. He really changed my perspective on passion and how to live life to its fullest. His speech leaves me with many things to think about in my own life. Today is definitely a day I would never forget.
