My legs and arms were shaking. Sweat was tripping down my face. Every step felt like thousands of needles were sinking into my legs. I couldn't take it. By that time I had got three blisters(水泡) on each foot. It felt like I was in Sahara!
It was discovery week. Grade eight was visiting Altai for a week. We lived in camps near the river. Now we were going up the mountain called The Devil's Finger. But the mountain was only getting steeper(陡的). Most of the people were already on the top, screaming, laughing and taking selfies. Then I realized I had left my hat on the bus and I felt even worse. I touched my head. It was warm, but I couldn't do anything about it.
Most of my friends were up the hill cheering me on. "Pointless!" I told them. "I can't go any faster!" They looked at me and laughed. "They have got to be kidding me! Are they doing it on purpose?"
I was making my way slowly up the mountain. My feet stepped on something. I thought it was a rock, but whatever. The rock slipped from under my boot and went tumbling down the mountain. I lost my balance and fell on the ground. "Are you OK?" I heard a voice behind me. "Just tired. I'm taking a break." I didn't want to say that I fell.
There were only eight people behind me by that time. I decided to speed up because I didn't want to be the last one up. I looked up. Yana was already on the top, waving to me. "It's like she isn't tired at all," I thought to myself. The sun was behind her so I could barely see her face. Actually, no. I could see a huge smile on her face. She was shouting something, but I couldn't hear it. I decided that the rest of the way up I would not stop to take any breaks.
