Finally!!!

I'm done with my training, and almost done with orientation. Graduation is in 4 days- I will get my shield, be sworn in, and get my black helmet (the yellow training helmets are not allowed in burning buildings and are a point of ridicule and torment in the field). Tomorrow we go back to EVOC to make sure everyone can be cleared to drive the ambulances.

I know I haven't written much lately...I've been spending a lot of time at a nearby haunted house- besides, it's hard to go online when your computer has a virus. I'll soon make up for the slacking, I'll be in the field as early as Saturday.

Gotta run, tonight's the last night for the haunted house and I need to go eat and get ready....

take care

yeah, yeah, I know....

Been having an OK time lately- having a bit of a time-management issue but doing good I guess. It's been crazy at the academy lately (well, sorta), times of intense learning with hours of extreme boredom in the middle. Did a couple burns since the last entry, that was fun. I wish I had more time to write, but I've only gotten 4.5 hours of sleep the past 2 nights so I'm about dead right now. Hopefully I'll have more time later this week and will try to update...no promises.

take care
