    Ambulance Vouyerism?

    I wasn't exactly ninja'ing up the ramp to hover, I was just fascinated by it I suppose, so I wanted to see what was going on. I got out of traffic to do so, so I didn't put anyone in danger. Wasn't aware being curious was a disqualification for being in EMS. O.o; I was more interested in...

    Martial Arts

    True, but I swear I heard somewhere that Krav Maga is...pretty much ONLY those sorts of things so someone trained in Krav Maga is going to have a hard time with not getting kicked out of competition lol. A friend of mine was stabbed in the back twice, and her Krav Maga saved her life. Pretty...

    Ambulance Vouyerism?

    I know because I was at the hospital parking lot when they pulled into the hospital unloading zone. O_O; We are a very small town lol. I work about 5min away from the hospital. What're "those" people? My instructors said in class the other night that if someone starts coding the driver flips...

    Scrawny People?

    Our book and instructor said 100 - I originally read that it was 165 so I have a lot numbers confusing me now lol. I want to be able to lift 100 minimum and if you think it's 125 then I suppose it'd be in my best interest to work toward that. It's just intimidating being so small, I don't want...

    Ambulance Vouyerism?

    Oh thank goodness that urge fades? Lol. I'm dying to get started on my clinicals, I'm a very "just toss me in, coach!" sort of person lol.

    Scrawny People?

    Is anyone else here under 100lbs? I tend to dip under 90 quite a bit. It's fully natural, and despite my best efforts (-still nursing a nice soda-) it's apparently not going to change. I'm 20, just over 5'0", and today I think I'm at 88lbs. So here's the issue: I have to be able to lift at...

    Martial Arts

    Wow your pictures look neater than mine lol. I'm a black belt in Tae Kwon Do...been doing it for about six years... I suggest for anyone looking for something hardcore with a lot of hitting - check out Krav Maga. I believe that's grappling and hitting and made for "real world" combat. Last...

    Ambulance Vouyerism?

    So today I was driving back to work from lunch and I saw an ambulance running hot back to the hospital. In my area you don't touch the lights/sirens on the way to the hospital unless there's someone either coding or about to in the back, not sure it's the same everywhere. Well my first...

    Hey There! Question.

    Hey, thanks for the replies! If you can find me a pair of men's pants with a size 22 waist I will be amazed. I can't wear adult women's pants either, which is where my problem begins lol. I wear girls' jeans...usually between size 8 and 16, depending on the brand. Thanks a ton for the...

    Anyone else hate needles? (past or present)

    -shudder- I'm eagerly awaiting the IV class where I get to be stuck and stick. Really. Really I am. I'm not losing colour in my face, quiet. :wacko: That's going to be the hardest part for me. Gaping wounds? Cool. Broken bones? Awesome. Awful icky things that would make most normal people...

    Hey There! Question.

    I'm a newbie, clearly, and I'm an EMT-B in training. Yay. Problem is we have to have some spiffy pants for clinicals, which I'm cool with - except the only pants I can find are slated for size 4+ and I'm closer to a 0/00... which is a problem. Any other scrawny EMTs that can give me some...
