I still vividly remember the time that I was in the military course. That's also the time when we had to study physically. Everything was so strange for us. But there was a heartwarming event that I still remember. That was the time my classmates, especially the boys, celebrated Women's Day for us, the girls. It was just a couple of days before the 10th or 12th of November. I think it was around the 18th. I was caught by surprise when the boys asked us to have some discussions about the lessons and play some games. But it turned out that they had prepared something special for us. It was so surprising. They even had a microphone and a dancing performance. They danced in the yard in front of other students from our class. I think they had prepared for a long time and even bought us bubble tea and a cake as well. It was so sweet of them. I still remember that it was one of the things I cherish the most. I experienced this because I was so homesick when I entered the military course. I think that's the most memorable moment I had during the military course. That's all.
