Reception, Day 1

Holy crap I'm miserable, really didn't get any sleep at all, and it didn't help that I couldn't sleep at the hotel the past two nights from anticipating BCT. We were issued PT uniforms as soon as we go there (one of my shirts ended up being a XXL, not sure what to do about that), and finished processing around 0200... then wakeup at 0400, lame! After that, we got issued our smart cards and went to the PX, had some medical testing, etc. The reception platoon I'm in, the 41st, is actually kind of small since it's only 23 people. Seems like most people are in the same boat as me, MEPS command delayed their flights and whatnot and now we're all here together. It's cool for the most part, people are pretty funny but they also do a lot of dumbass things. It's been a long day and I don't remember much else, I'll add more if I remember.
