Quote of the day: "The first and greatest commandment is, 'Don't let them scare you'." - Elmer Davis
It's Thursday, and today is the CCAC test to see if we are all proficient in combat aid... Kelvin, Paul, and I have not been attending any of the lessons, but seeing as how kangaroo the course is, it's going to be a breeze...
In the morning, there was a short lesson on canulation... I found out that the smallest needle used in the SAF is a size 16G canular... oh my god, that's like freaking big man... you can actually stare down the shaft of the needle when you look into the tip...geez... anyways, you had a practise on a dummy first, then you go straight into the test, which was to successfully canulate someone... talk about dangerous... I was the only one around with the most experience in this sorta stuff so I went ahead and attempted it on my friend... only could canulate him on the second try cause his vein collasped the first time... oh well... I refused to get canulated by anyone around, cause I was so distrusting of everyone's skill... I think it's a scared to die attitude I adopted when I found that the medics were super ill-trained... I have totally lost confidence in the medics in the SAF...
In the afternoon, was the second part of the test, which consisted of just bandaging and arresting of a haemorrage... super easy... was over and done with in 2 minutes... so I halo-ed the rest of the day away... hehehe suddenly camp life just includes a whole lot of playing halo 2...

I've been told that I'm the life of the party, well, that might be true only if I'm in the mood... hehehe I'm a hopeless romantic, sporty and basically out of my mind... I'd try mostly anything once and I'm not afraid to make a fool of myself, which is quite often nowdays... I can make friends anywhere I go, but that's only if they speak English. I'm at home indoors as well as outdoors, and if you're a clubber and call me out, more often then not, I'd go if I had the money and I'm free the next day... I'm very sweet and parents love me... Really, I get along with parents very easily... strange but true... I'm a musical buff, I try never to miss a musical or theater performance which catch my eye and I'm a photo-slut... I absolutly lurve having my photo taken! I annoy people very easily, but somehow they always still want me around... heheheh
