So damn tired... reach home only ard 7pm. Thot go plonking onto my bed n go to dreamland, but no choice, much do some work for my report first. Have to send to my leader by todae lor... Since I'm online to send mail, muz well update my blog abit. Well, the final 2 days for th first responder course was veri "shiok". In the sense that we learnt a lot and get to piece them together through all the hands one practical session.
Those instructors at obs were really zai (3). Really enjoyed the scenarios that we were given. On Sat's night we had to rescue 2 ppl who supposedly had fallen n roll down a slope. They were so heavy n dey shouted when we touch their fake wounds! Dey were so realistic that I was flustered when they start screaming in pain. After tat we had to rescue 2 dummies... as they need to b evacuated from ubin to mainland. We were running around like hell...run w stretcher for 30s, muz do CPR for 1 min n the cycle goes on n one. Realli muz do the breathing n the chest compressions... even when we were on the speed boat. ya, rite...we realli stimulated with the speed boat. We can dun try so hard n no one will noe but we were all serious in performing our duty...n I like tat kind of feeling...the feeling that you get when the group work so hard to achieve a common goal. Such a wonderful feeling! =)
But the dun part comes todae, being one of the 2 girls out of the group of 8 CIs, I got a chance to play casualty as we r lighter...easier for them to carry over long distance. We were thrown into the jungle w fake wounds etc....den wait for them to rescue us lah. Was trying to act as though we were hyperventilating....but in the end we really got cramped n numb ...hahah!
Aniwae, I muz say I'm glad I attended this course. =>
Off to bed n time to hit the books tmr...next wk common test le. 5 papers ah!!!!!
