A momentary touch of a geography student

I didn't think of myself as adventurous since I was a kid, but I did day dreaming, even though I never made myself the protagonist of a story: I dreamed of water jugs in the Florida swamp; I dreamed of fossil shells in the Rock Tower desert ; Rimbaud's postcards are spliced ​​into a huge teleportation array; the turquoise treasure hall with flying dragons hovering above the stone carvings of swallowing the sky; ... I have had many dreams, but the movie scene that actually started to trigger my empathy was Ben Stiller's way to climb Mount Everest, a narrow mountain pass and a rock pile when he wanted to sit beside Sean Penn. The moment when my upper foot slipped and stumbled, at that moment, I seemed to have returned to the wild mountain road six months ago, on the meadow at an altitude of 2551m in the West Terrace of Xiaowutai Mountain, with the consolidation of cow dung as a fulcrum to climb on all fours. Because it wasn't a dream, it was an existential and conscious pair of feet on solid ground, joking that the corpse that died on this mountain was not a Kilimanjaro leopard, but a goat. The summer field internship for physical geography did not strengthen my determination. I still doubt my resilience and whether I can do fieldwork. All the hardships and fatigue in the internship are real and unworthy of praise, but I am sure I will never forget this experience if I repeat it for the rest of my life, because I really experienced it (ω` ), so I think of mammalology this semester. In the last class, Mr. Feng Limin told his own story: Going deep into the dense forest of Xishuangbanna Looking for the South China Tiger, encounter poisonous insects, drug dealers and mercenaries. Regrettably, after declaring that there were no wild South China tigers in China, they went north to the three northeastern provinces to look for the Siberian tigers. Instead of loneliness, stowaways and smugglers mingle on the cold snowy plains. In the end, he became the first person to take pictures of Siberian tigers in China, from that day to today's Siberian Tiger and Leopard National Park. I'm still not a very adventurous person, but "Daytime Adventurer" is by no means an adult fairy tale. The road is simple, let go and do it with pure love.

    The first part is more interesting, playing in the small theater in the brain, it is estimated that many people who love to daydream have this kind of experience. However, this theme finally turned to the need to go out, just do it. The world is so beautiful that the otaku can't do anything. Too chicken soup and too shallow
