【Aiden in English】

This is the last day of the PSC Basketball Camp. The process of getting to this day was hard and it didn’t come without bumps and bruises. But the week's name was by fast, and it was fun, which is the most important thing by far.

As promised we did layup drills in the morning for about 40 minutes, and people were dropping left and right to do pushups. I corrected my scoop shot, and also my shooting position I used to step with the wrong foot or jumped using only one step. These errors gave me five pushups every time.

However, the last day brought us a special event, known as Laser Tag. Basically, each player got a vest with four targets on it. The chest had a triangle, and so did the back. Both shoulders had a small rectangular target. The vest came with a gun that fired a red laser that activated the sensors in the targets signifying that they’d been hit. A hit would stun you for five seconds, and points were given to the shooter. There were two teams, Red versus Blue. Although this was what we came here for, most of the campers wanted to play hide and seek. So you came to play a game where I doubted that 50% of the kids would never play again, and you decided to play a game that really you could do any night you wanted. Nevertheless, the majority ruled and the sensible few were overrun by little kids.

For this game, a strobe light was turned on for effect. We had half a minute to hide, and the tagger wore a red vest that couldn’t be hidden. Once someone was found, they had to go back to the waiting room. So here I was, running away from screaming little kids and the tagger when an idea hit me. Instead of running away, why not follow the tagger? So I ran around a corner and popped up behind the red vest. Staying at a safe distance, I tip-toed behind a red glow I could see. Now, here’s a bit of advice about strobe lights. They don’t exactly prove the best light source. In the areas deeper into the arena, it gets very, very dark. Unfortunately, the setup was like a maze, with walls in certain areas. While I was following the tagger, I let him get too far ahead of me. Ah, I didn’t exactly make out which way he got there. Like an idiot, I ran into a wall. Bang! I swear, everyone in the room heard me. The tagger turned around, but I was gone, dashing away as fast as I could. On the way, I was pretty sure that I kicked someone sitting on the floor.

The week ended with a scrimmage that wasn’t too fun, but it sure was hilarious. Jason missed all his layups again. At times, one team couldn’t even get the ball past its half-court line, and a tiny 6-year-old was voted (unofficially) MVP for getting a foul and a bucket over a 5-foot-11-inch kid, Alan. I got 6 points and a heck ton of assists. Although it wasn’t like the others, this game was a calm wrap-up to the hectic week.

Basketball is a sport that I’ll like for a long time. Although I doubt that I’m even going to make the middle school team, this game makes me look at basketball differently.

今天是费城运动俱乐部篮球夏令营的最后一天，一路走来我们含辛茹苦，身上青一块紫一块落下不少伤痛，一周时光稍纵即逝，因为愉悦欢快，才倍感充实。

按照事先计划，早上我们大约花了四十分钟来练习带球上篮，左右手开弓，不中者被罚做俯卧撑。我纠正了自己钩球上篮毛病以及手脚错位投球姿势，整个过程分别夹做了五次俯卧撑。

最后一天我们应允参加特别活动——激光追身战，每人身穿装备有四个靶点的背心，前胸后背的靶点均呈三角形，双肩上的靶点呈长方形。胸上佩带激光枪发射红色光束，红色激光可以激活靶点上的传感器，表示被对方打中，这时你身上发出五秒钟电击声，射手得分。我们一分为二红蓝两队，大家竟一致要玩“捉迷藏”游戏，可我觉得当中半数之多的同伴以后再也不会回到这里来参加激光追身战，因此大可不必选择这么一个随便哪天都能得手的游戏，不管怎样少数服从多数，小不点们因人多势众而主断决策。

对于激光追身战而言，闪光灯被用来增加视觉效果。游戏开始时，我们给出半分钟时间掩蔽自己，身穿红色背心一方不能躲藏。其间只要有人被发现，他们必须前往等候室待命。我从对方发出尖叫的小孩身边悄悄溜走，这时忽然计上心头，与其逃跑，何不跟随射击者？于是我跑到墙角，窜到红马甲背面，与其保持一定距离，踮着脚尖努力尾随红光影子。这里顺便说一下闪光灯，其实它们并非是最佳光源，因为越接近娱乐室中心越黑，而整个娱乐室又被设置成迷宫，并且周围高墙林立。我尾随进攻一方，只要稍微离他远一点，哎哟，就弄不清他去的方向，像睁眼瞎似地撞到了墙。砰！我发誓房间里所有的人都能听到这一响声，此刻射手转身，好在我以迅雷不及掩耳之势逃离现场，跑动过程中，我肯定踢到恰好坐在地上的倒霉鬼。

本周篮球营最后以混战角逐宣告结束，虽然算不上太有趣，但却热闹非凡。杰森再度犯糗，上篮连连失手；有时某些队员甚至无法将球传过半场，年仅六岁的萝卜头因不惜犯规身高五英尺十一英寸思源将球投进篮框而被（非官方）评为最佳运动员。我总共得了六分，还有不少助攻。尽管末场比赛与其它不同，但大家还是心平气和地送走了乐此不疲的一个星期。

篮球算是我长久以来喜欢的运动，虽说本人并无可能被选入初中篮球校队，但经历了这场比赛之后，我对篮球还是有了新的认识。
