Purchase made.
'06 with 35k miles for $2,350 (yes, I know the stickers have to go... Besides the pin up girl... I like her)
P.S. my friends have named her Bessie already. Don't know where that came from, but Bessie it is!

That's a beautiful bike. Nice purchase.
 
Thank you, all!
Only thing she needs is brake pads. Everything else was done pretty recent, PO had just done the 36k maintenance, which is a lot (I actually bought it from the PO's family. The actual owner had a MI last week and passed away).
It was a blast last night. Spent 2-3 hours tooling in the parking lot. Practicing basics like throttle control (which is harder than I though...), braking... Well, the basics.. Haha.
First started and I'm physically shaking, ha. 10 minutes in and it's the best time I've had in a while.
 
I think I really will do the PERCOM online IC course :) Give me something to do during my weeklong shifts.
 
What kind of person shoves a treat inside a toy!?

Happy birthday!

Also, I found out those stickers were strategocally placed... To hide when he dropped it on one side. Didn't think anything of it, since he had it the same way on both sides. Oh well...
Also... DMV :glare:
 
Happy birthday! Entrance exam today. Wish me luck.
 
So early this morning I flew out my first patient ever... on a fixed wing... with no hospital intervention between scene and flyout. I like this :)

Very cool! And Jealous.
 
I think they said only 56 people applied. So I have a good chance to get in. Also they are getting a brand new building next year as well as a new sim lab. And an ambulance... what they are going to do with that... they don't even know.

And thanks!
 
I had a great time during my time at TCC. Melissa is a great teacher and Mike was one of a kind. :/

I also got divorced during medic school and got involved in the most toxic relationship in my life.

There were three divorces, a wedding, a baby and a few other life changing events during medic school. :) I made some lifelong friends there. I'm actually going back to Seattle in September for a classmates wedding. (Yeah, someone he met while doing clinicals!)

I rode with Sno 1, and made great connections and had a great time up there. I'll admit, I think that medics from TCC seemed to be better prepared for the field, compared to other programs students.

And the Dr Morse lectures are awesome.

My paramedic program had a couple older ambulances they used for simulations. Some of it was a bit silly seeing as we all had >2 years of 911 EMT experience going in, but they did some cool things with them.

We had a few weeks before the start of our internships where they set up mock patient scenarios in various areas of the city and we drove around responding to fake calls and transporting the mock patients to actual participating EDs. The coolest part of that was they had us working with EMT students from the same school for a more realistic experience for everyone.
 
Last I heard, they were getting a new sim man and an ambulance simulator. Glad they're moving. The old classroom was cramped.
