So to catch everyone up really quickly, I passed the state exam and recieved my official EMT card in the mail... so I can provide basic life support should you require it :-p
We just got our SCBAs Friday, and we took them home to get used to it and to practice donning and doffing w/ it... cuz we're gonna be doing that in a maze, blind-folded. That's gonna be ridiculous.
But what's even more ridiculous is this next week is "hell week" where we're gonna be doing exercises like "chop til you drop" and running up, down and around the exterior tower w/ tools until the last person in the class runs out of air. we're gonna be crawling around on our knees throught the academy and grounds blind and on air. I'm not gonna lie, i'm kind of nervous about it.. but i'll get through it.
The pictures above are from the Heart Walk. They let us borrow our class flag for the day, which i was honored to carry. I didnt want to give it back b/c who knows when we'll have earned it, you know? i tried to sneak it off the bus but on of my instructors was like, nice try ms. wicker....
ah well, soon enough i guess
