Orientation Camp(Day 3 in camp)
1/8/21 **Happy new month my readcash family.πͺ** I'm saying from my side here that God will make this month productive for us all by His grace. **Back to my update for today.** Today is my 3rd day in camp. Any free time I have, I put down a bit of each day's article and publish it after editing all at night. So, it's night here in Nigeria and we are done with today's activities. So, yesternight, I almost got punished alongside my hostel mates and some other people. It happened that we were asked to come outside for party at 8pm. Being tired, I decided not to go, that I was going to relax and rest after a tiring parade. Not quite long I heard the sound of the trumpet followed by an announcement that all Corp members should come outside. Some of us still ignored the call, blaming tiredness. Then the soldiers came in to send us out themselves after collecting our ID cards. We were told that we would undergo rigorous punishment after the party by 10pm, I was already scared π¨π³. At that point I wanted to say " I'm no longer interested in serving the nation. But to cut the long story short, the party extended till 10:30pm, and we were pardoned as well. So, today is almost a free day for us all. As the morning is for activities which are not necessarily compulsory. You go at your own will.
On hearing the sound of the bugle by 5:20am, I immediately logged on to my phone, where a message was waiting for me. I told us yesterday that I joined the volleyball team, so this was the message
So, my free day was interrupted by the message above. We were meant to practice by 12 noon but they moved it to 7:00am. I went some minutes to 7, but I was the only ones present, the instructors were unhappy but started training only me until 8:30am. I was told another time would be scheduled. I got in, dressed up and went for the NCCF. From service I went straight back to volleyball Court for training. I met 3 other ladies, the trainer gave up on us after an hour because we were not making any progress. I was tired though because I didn't get to rest after the morning training because I went to church. We went out in the evening after meal and siesta, parade drills and Man O War. As expected, the rehearsals were very tiring. This was because the swearing in is tomorrow (Monday) and we needed to attain some level of satisfaction from the soldiers in charge of our training. *Visit my sponsors page and upvote their posts. Thanks.* The soldiers showed a very high level of discipline and they demanded the same from us. To the extent that even if you are a minute late for rehearsals, you're well punished. It was that simple!π Although, considering that it was only a paramilitary training, they were also very friendly and approachable. In a way, I usually looked forward to the period of rehearsals. You want to ask me why? Because the different styles of marching that some people exhibited were so funny and at times, even the soldiers were forced to laugh. π A lady was literally dancing rather than marching. ππ Of course, you must have seen many short video clips of such occurrences on social media. I pray my platoon wins lots of medal in the upcoming competition between Platoons. Our volleyball team (only ladies) in particular. It was normal to have a good rest after a day filled up with different activities. But the urge to sleep quickly will disappear after over 30 minutes of crouching and frog jumpπ€£π€£π€£π€£, if one gets disciplined, so I do not wish to have this experience. I will abide by rules and yield whenever the bugle sounds, no matter how inconvenient it is for me. Tomorrow is my platoons day, which means we'll cheer every activities that takes place in camp tomorrow. Starting from the prayer, praise and worship session to the cooking, sanitation and other activity. I'm one of the choristers for tomorrow. Till tomorrow. Thank you so much for following.ππβοΈβοΈ **Lead image:** My Platoon preparing for tomorrow's meal. One bag of beans was picked. **Please advice: I try telling people here about Bitcoincash but they all seem so concerned about their account number. I told them no one needs their account number as all they need to do is log in to read.cash and post their article after registering.** They said at least they still have to convert the money in order to withdraw and be able to spend it. I don't know how else to make them understand and join the community.

My sister told me of hers when she did her own last month, the training is always a tedious and stressful one. I don't think I can have the strength oo ,π€£π€£ Well, at least it's for 3 weeks before finally starting work in your posted place.
Yes ooo. Very strenuous. One thing I see about is, no matter how stressful the body pain is, it stops once I begin parade the next day. Then when I stop, it begins. I can't wait for the end of the three weeks.
Would you believe if I told you that I had never been into camping. I really wish that when I was younger. But my mother didn't allow me to
Oh!!! I'm stressed had her reasons, probably she doesn't want her precious daughter to go away from her. But it's such a lovely experience. But I'm sure you had lots of experience in Hong Kong as well.
That seems like a busy day ahead. Take care! Keep showing them proof of your earnings here so that hopefully will be the final straw to convince them.
Yes, a busy one. Thanks. I will keep trying till at least one of them yields.
It's hard to convince people who are not interested at all, but I hope you can still convince them because the site is really awesome and helpful.
I hope so too. Thanks.
Little by little you will get used to things done at the camp. But wait how can people pick one bag of beans, that will take like days to finish up with
Lol. It was done within few hours.
It's not so easy to confuse people to part in something even though they might benefit or not in it
Lols,I know how stressful it is base on your description now, sorry dear. Try showing them your earnings on a daily basis, that should convince them enough.
Yes I've been doing that. Luckily I got one person @Prisca. Thank you
Good,nice one
They are afraid because of the current ban on bank receiving crypto transactions in the country. Try to explain P2P way of selling to them. Also let them know that with time Bitcoincash will become so popular that it will be used for transacting. So it's for their own good if they accumulate it now.
Yes I guess so. And I show them my daily earnings well.
you've had a busy but productive day, Queenray. Enjoy! β€οΈ
Thank you π
Sure π
Your days seem quite busy. May you have much success in what you do! Hopefully, you can soon convince more people to join the BCH.
Yes, I did. I hope so too.
Just continue to convince them. Soon they will also join and will also love BCH. You can also let them read some articles on hw to register here (or even on noise.cash), the site's rules, how to withdraw and the like. I know it's leejhen whom I have read some articles about the step by step procedure on those things.
