【Aiden in English】
After being sick at home straight for two days, I was finally back in action, even though my fever wasn't entirely gone. With medication, there was no problem. But without those horrible pills, my temperature would spike. So, today I took risk and after eating an Advil, pill, I left for LC.
During B-Ball Camp, the class played a 90-min game. The score wasn't pretty. We, the guest team, got demolished 61-72. Not because I was a horrible team picker, but I just threw the ball away too much and nobody was able to catch it.
In the 1st half, I was my team's top scorer. It was layup after layup, buckets after buckets, and occasionally a three-point from downtown. In the 2nd half, however, my fever kicked in and the splitting headaches happened whenever I ran, jumped, or fought for the ball. I just couldn't play. Putting the ball near the net even became an effort.
As much as I lost on the court, I gained a crucial piece of information. PLAYING B-BALL with A FEVER IS NOT A GOOD IDEA!!! Maybe today I shouldn't have come to LC after all.
【红霞译文】
经过连续两天生病在家，我终于开始采取措施，尽管病灶尚未彻底消除。药物控制不成问题，一旦离开可怕的药片，体温又迅速回升。对此，今天我吃下一片布洛芬退烧药，冒着风险去了兰斯代尔天主教高中。
逗留篮球夏令营期间，营员们全部投入一场长达90分钟的比赛，结果惨不忍睹。作为客队的我们以61比72的战绩败下阵来，这并非因为接我传球的队员不好，而是因为我把球仍得过远，没人能接得住。
在上半场中，我是本队主要得分手，一个接着一个地上篮，两分接着两分地攀升，偶尔球还会从三分线外应声入网。然而一到了下半场，我又开始发烧，每当奔跑、弹跳、或者争球时，都感觉头痛欲裂，实力大受影响，甚至连就地投篮也变得相当费劲。
正因场上有失水准，我才得出一条宝贵经验﹕带病上阵打篮球绝非上策﹗﹗﹗也许今天我根本不该来兰斯代尔天主教高中。
