Day 3: White Fowl

White fowl!

When I heard it I was speechless,
I thought it was only cock that is referred to by that name, funny me!
But it was given to us,” we the big boys and big girls prospective corps members. God is great!
With us in our up and down white we look much like it
The difference there is the green cap.

And those that did not put on these clothes were called foreigners.
My thought was that, isn't it preferable to be on mufti than to be called white fowl,
I laughed when I remembered that I can't just take my bag and leave.
But I comforted myself that from next week upward everyone will be in the same wears with the same name "white fowl"

Today also continue with another stress;
Woken up by 4am for morning devotion and lecture, and stood for like 3 hours for that.
Then practice again for like 7 hours for swearing in ceremony, going over the same thing again and again due to the otondo amidst us
Omo! My body is aching all over

Seems like my story is getting shorter and shorter because of the stress I am going through.
Thank God tomorrow is Sunday, so I will be able to get enough sleep.
