Ah, a week into term 3 already. I still have leftover work, our tables got separated, hysics lessons with Mr Sreenivasan is weird, and he doesn't like people bowing to him so I don't know how to greet him. Let's just avoid him, easier on the mind.

But mainly I'm here posting because I saw a medium sized squirrel in my old old primary school compound! It's just scampering at the basketball court. Full length maybe 1 and a half of my hands. I like its large bushy tail. :) Makes people wanna go up and just touch it or something.

And on the same day, I got bad luck, as I tried vaulting over the green fences like I usually now and then. But I didn't realise my tight pants today would affect my jump, and I came crashing down on the other size. Ow. So now I have blue blacks on my knees and internal lacerations in my left toe and thumb. Hard to now put stress on the legs, zzz.

Note to self: Don't jump around with tight/small pants.

Notenote to self: Need more baggy pants. probably.

And Wednesday I did the theory test for BM, I think. I never bothered remembering what's the ranking name for the one after Lifesaving 3. Oh man, I think I kinda screwed up some parts, even though I passed in the end. We did CPR and EAR on the dummies, and was asked random life saving questions to each of us. CPR and EAR, I forgot to count the number of cycles I had done, so I was sorta relying on my other partner to count, and making guesswork myself.

And I don't know how the dummy works. Tilt up the chin to open airway, and it feels like it didn't move at all, totally different from training. And blow into victim's mouth, also dunno correct or not, course sometimes the dummy makes sounds (As if there's too much air inside) Or the chest just rises. So I just took my chances and gave more blows that does not involve the dummy farting, and having more chest rises.

Then when I was asked a question (Whether you should call for ambulance after you placed victim in a recovering position) I told him no need, since I would have called earlier before I did rescue work on the victim. I think he didn't catch what I meant, so he told me to make a hypothetical call. So I said out the victim's sex, approx. age, current condition, location, and because I didn't know the street name, (I was too adamant to make up one) I just said what nearby major landmarks leads to here. kena scolding lor, say want to slap me, ask me run down and ask, coming back with the answer.

This tester also damn guailan one, you give wrong answer, he can spam vulgar on you sia. "You blur cock", "I slap you to the other side ar", etc.. But even if we are training to save the lives of others, no need scold until like that right?

Later, he gave each of us 6 questions, and to tell him the answer in 3 mins when he comes to us. My list happened to be easier ones, but since I hadn't prepared for this, I panicked a little. So I spent my time making nice somkescreens to use. And in the end, I got all six correct! (You need 4/6 to pass.) Too bao leng liao. He did praised me, although I don't think I really deserved it.

Oh well, next week still got part 2: Teh swimming test!
