So when it comes to a time when I felt absolutely tired, the first one that comes to my mind is when I felt mentally and physically drained due to a badminton match. This story began a few months ago right after I finished my stressful final exams, and I was so excited because I invited my friend to play a badminton match to blow off some steam. I was really looking forward to it, but when we arrived at the court, the sky was so high and hot, it was scorching because it was summer. I had a second thought about whether I should find a cooler place or not, but finally, I decided to go ahead anyway because I was so excited and eager to play. After an hour of intense running, I started soaking with sweat, and my face was as red as a tomato. But the real trouble started the next morning. I woke up with a splitting headache and realized I was running a high fever. My head was so dizzy that I had to lie in bed all day. But the worst part was when I had to skip a crucial lecture. After that, I was filled with a sense of regret and helplessness. This experience truly was a wake-up call for me and taught me that I shouldn't take my health for granted. Thank you.
