The First Lesson

Wow...! The morning was so beautiful. 

One benefit of getting up early in morning before everyone gets up is that you can enjoy the freshness of the morning, the stillness, the quietness to the fullest.

It was on 4-11-2016 that my group members day started a bit early, then others at camp site that is at 4:30 am. Before everyone gets up we had to sweep, mope the campus floor, prepare bed tea for everyone,put a beautiful rangoli at the entrance and create a environment in which our fellow being were comfortable with.

 

This was not a easy task as we for that day had to play the role of parents. That is from the beginning of the day till the day end we had to take care of all the people at the camp site. This included preparing food for them, serving it to them, cleaning the utensils and what not.

That day we understood the value of hard work our mothers do everyday. The meaning of the NSS moto that is " Not me but you" was truly understood by us that day.

We had to prepare food, serve everyone, as well as practice for night competition in the same time. It was not easy we had to really work hard to complete everything on time. We were required to be on our toes the whole day.

The evening session was based on consumer awareness. For the guest speaker we had to make a bouquet from the things available in our surroundings and we did a good job.

Then the routine was as before. The kitchen committee were always the last to have food just like our mothers, as we had to serve food for others and then clean everything. 

It was the rule that kitchen committee had to performe last for the night competition. From the whole day work we hardly got time to practice for mime that was the competition set for that day. 

The most funnest and the most memorable moment of this camp was my group practice during the last minute that was while washing the utensils at night😝😂.

That day was one of the best day I spend at camp, as we got the feeling of parenthood that day and for us respect for our parents increased. That day we got a sound sleep as the day was really exhausting.
