The transformation from civilian life to military life is a little chaotic at first, but after the initial processing it becomes pretty routine. The way I saw it... the first three or four days were the worst. You get off the bus and regret ever talking to that recruiter with his painted on smile. Then after about a week you get used to the routine and seriously... after what feels like a couple days, it's all over. I liked bootcamp. I actually enjoyed basic training a lot. It's an experience in my life I won't ever forget. Don't sweat it dude. Just be respectful and "live by the chow". Literally, if you count down from each and every meal (3 a day) your time at Cape May flies by. It's a blast.
