Friendship ends when the training begins.
Ayun, shout out ata yan ng isa kong friends sa FS. I don't really believe in it. But sometimes, there are instances na kelangan mangyari yan. Like for example, If you really are working hard in order to achieve the position you are aspiring for, you'll have to forget everything for a while para makapagconcentrate lang sa training. However, it doesnt' really have to trample on the golden rules of friendship. Sometimes, you'll have to be self-disciplined and forget all the happy memories, old times and quirky moments just for the sake of the training. Training nga eh, di'ba? It's like change, it's inevitable. Wooh. Dahil everyone's a competitor, you'll have to make "pakitang-gilas" yourself. Pero wag naman yung sobra-sobra na you already know you are stepping on someone but you don't compromise for doing so. Training... the friendship ends for a while but the respect is still there. Okay, so much for that...
Our CAT Training shall end next week, I hope. I hope not. I want the training to end because it's so tiring, hard and I am being lazy. Plus, ayoko nang umitim pa. I don't want it to end because I am starting to enjoy it, I am already being used to it and I am afraid that boredom might kill me inside the house once it ends. Hay, It's a mixed feeling. Ang gulo. Pero ang saya. Ang gulo ko talaga. Haha.
Puro marchings tsaka facing for the whole training. Last week puro seminars. Ang astig nung mga instructors. The first instructor was a former assistant commandant of our school. According to my uncle, he was the most brutal/violent commandant in the history of St. Joseph College. So, takot ako. I was surprised to see him because he was so funny and well, he said he changed a lot. Yung hindi ko makakalimutang sinabi niya yung: "Girls, kapag may nagtangkang mang-rape sa inyo, kapag panget, sumigaw kayo! Pero kapag gwapo, let him!" Nagulat pa kami nun, sabay tawa kasi seryoso pa siya nung sinasabi niya yun. Hahahaha. Tawa to the max talaga.
Yung next instructor namin, ayon kay Sir Cerezo, siya daw yung pinakamagaling na magbigay ng Method of Instruction (MOI) sa buong Region 3. Wala lang. Nakakatuwa din siya kasi ang kyut ng accent niya. Haha. Ginagaya niya yung pagkocommand sa CAT sa states(Napanood niyo na ba yung Cadet Kelly? Ganun). Tapos kamukha niya si Jimmy Santos! Hahahaha.
Yung 3rd seminar naman, about First Aid naman. 3days yun. Tapos dalawa yung instructor namin dun. Eto yung pinakamasayang seminar. Kasi madaming matututunan talaga. Simula sa First aid sa mga wounds, bandaging, yung mga carry, at saka CPR! Sa sobrang saya, nakalimutan ko na mga nangyari. Haha. Basta nung exams nung 3rd day nung seminar. Written tsaka practicum. Ang hirap nung written at halos 3/4 samen ata bagsak kasi 85% yung passing grade. Pero buti na lang, nakapasa ako! Weee. Tas pagtapos ng written test, practicum na! Buti ako yung isa sa mga nauna, so fresh pa yung dummy na gagamitin ko. Haha. Ayun, ayos naman yung CPR. Grabe, di ako makapaniwalang may first mouth-to-mouth na ako at sa dummy pa. Haha. Namaga bibig ko nun kasi anlaki nung bibig nung dummy tsaka ang hirap magpasok ng hangin. E ang onte pa naman ng reserve na hangin ko. Haha. Ayun, 2:04 secs yung time ko. 1 second before dun sa time limit. Lucky me. So di ko na inulit. At ayoko na rin umulit baka maubusan ako ng hininga.
Next week pala life-saving techniques naman. Bale, sa YMCA pool kami nun. Excited na ako... Wala na ako makwento. Ubos na. Kung binasa mo 'to, thank you! Haha. :)
