    Excited and Scared

    So I start my EMT basic class tomorrow.
    I am Excited and Scared at the same time.
    It feels like the start of High school all over again.
    (I would have said kinder-garden but I can't remember that)
    This will make it 2 year after I graduated college.
    I really can't wait to start this.

    Will do. I picked the prefect time to go. I know two smart people that just so happen to be taking the class at the same time. It was not planned that way either it just happened.

    Trevor,

    I've done EMT training (so has Ralph) and it was hard, but good. Keep up with your studies and all will be well.

    Best of luck to you, congrats on your new adventure!

    Good luck. I took EMT-B and firefighting 4 or 5 years ago and it was a great experience. You'll learn a lot of cool stuff.

    No worries.

    All the kid needs to remember is:

    If they can talk -- they can walk.

    And it doesn't hurt to remember what tracheal shift and distended neck veins are associated with.

    Re: Excited and Scared

    Your welcome. The pin that holds the throttle housing in place broke, so it was off set. (tell me if this makes any sense). It happen because of the positioning of the soft straps. I am going to get a canon dancers before I leave, but for right now I tie it down to the lower triple tree.
