Ah. I survived my NCC camp.

Hell, the first day was really tiring (friday). We had to do drills for almost 2 hours continuously before going for lunch. Next we have Individual Fieldcraft where we learn what to do during war. We did exercises on a large synthetic field in my school. Hands were almost burnt. After that we had to do drills again. By the time it was night time, my entire body was aching already. I finally managed to sleep in my thin-layered sleeping bag on the hard floor with ceramic tiles at 12am. 10 minutes later I was awoken by shoutings by our seniors at my juniors. They were being tortured in the dead of the night. The shoutings were so noisy I couldn't sleep until around 1am.

Next day. Woke up and eat. Had selection for a competition. Since I was already selected, I could slack around along with the other cadets who were also already selected. In the afternoon we had amazing race that tired out my entire body and destroyed my voice, although it was fun. At night we had war games where some of us had to defend our base and the others have to steal flags from other people's bases. The worse bit was that my group was given an open area. And my boots was always stuck in the mud at the areas with grass. The seniors cheated by taking more than one flag of the same flag at once so all of us started cheating. When the games ended four cadets including myself were drilled close to midnight for selection of some parade on the next day. They needed two and one of them was kicked out, so I just volunteered to be kicked out so that the selections will end and all three of us can return to shower before sleeping. Slept at 1 am.

Last day. Apparently the seniors haven't chosen two cadets yet so all four of us were drilled again. But this time we were drilled by someone who was kind and quick to make a decision. I wasn't selected, but I didn't mind, since my entire body was aching badly and there was no point participating in an active role in the parade. After the two were selected we had a promotion parade where the seniors one year older than us were given the authority to boss us around next year.

Hell, the camp was freaking tiring.
