Life

2007-01-24T16:45:00.000Z

Yes life is good at the moment.I had another interview for college yesterday.I just keep applying for all of them.I need to apply for some more for back up plans.Some of my mates have had the sudden shock from mocks and now they are desperately trying to apply for more sixth forms.I have applied for public services most of the times but i am also considering applying for access to paramedic studies.This means that i am guaranteed an interview for one of the paramedic uni's. Also i am waiting for my national insurance number as I'm also in the process of applying for part time aka Saturday jobs. I'm also at the football on Sunday any casualty's? no i doubt it is the answer but they are still fun:D

Check your suspension!

2007-01-21T21:03:00.000Z

This post is a bit of a lecture one! Me and my mate were driving around as we were very bored.We herd a strange noise so decided to turn onto a quite road to stop.On the way down the road BANG! my first thought was We have been shot.Then the steering pulled to the left and we went to look at the car which was now tilting to one side.We got the parents out who then brought a jack with them.Once we took the tyre off we saw that the suspension had come off or was loose.The spike at the end of the coil had punctured the tyre.We were just thinking in the hours it took for the breakdown service to come about how lucky we were it wasnt on a main rd or motorway where u are going 50mph+.Lesson of this is check your suspension now and then.Back to today on duty was excellent.No casualtys but i had the radio so that was rather entertaining.

The Guilty Tyre.Look at the tear in the sidewall

You wait hours for one of these in these times.

Results!Part 1

2007-01-19T16:38:00.000Z

The Weather

2007-01-18T16:12:00.000Z

Wow what is up with the weather.I woke up late as im on study leave went in to do my english speaking exams i did it about SJA so hopefully passed with flying colours. but the weather is mad my fence got blown down so i tryed to get it up.Photos below and also the plant at the front of my house got ripped of the wall.I never new north west london gets strong winds like that!

yes my attempts of saving the fence as you can see with barrier tape and a bin plus a few bricks.You can see that even a heavy council green bin got blown off by the powerfull winds!

Moving on

2007-01-17T21:45:00.000Z

I am really moving forward now.I have finished my mocks.I am apllying for as many jobs as possible they are nnot till/supermarket jobs though!.I am also the dutys co-ordinator for my cadet division.I have also been talking to a man on the popular "myspace".He is a paramedic at uni and also a CRU.He is really encouraging me to join which is good especially seeing how hard it is to get in now.

Well Well i hear that there was 1400 calls to the LAS and SJA last night in c.london and these were all drink related!that is unbelievable most of these lot probably didnt get an ambulance sent to them as thats what they were saying on the news that drink related calls would be a low category and would prob have the booze bus sent to them !

Was anyone on duty last night LAS? SJA?

New Years Eve

2006-12-28T15:11:00.000Z

Great new years eve is coming up.All i here from htha on the ambulance duty side is that you hold vomit bowls all night where people having a "fun time" aka getting drunk start to get the symptoms of a bad night!I will not be on this year beacuse im too young and its way to dangerous out their!good lucky to anyone working that night for SJA or LAS.I hear that the popular booze bus will probably be going out

2006-12-24T21:51:00.000Z

yes as most of las are prob thinking "he is sad" i was watching casualty tonight and yesterday(sorry 4 the 2nd post) and josh one of my other people who i look upto looked and was made out that he was going to die.I look upto him just beacuse i want to get to his rank:Dnothing else!.He was stabed and has a pnemothorax and also had to have a thorocotamy performed on him so a bit of gore going on. But in the end josh survived so now casualty can carry on with their drama.ive had an idea.how about....... a nun standing on a step ladder, above a bath changing a light bulb-(as their normally this cheesey).

I had my shirt then work shirt then fleece then my high-vis jacket and i was still freezing i also think it came down to the steel cap boots!.i was with three other cool st johnnies and we had a good laugh through the match and also some lovely people in the crowd gave us a pack of mince pies to share!,I love these people the week before they gave us a tine of celebrations which we were still enjoying yesterday in the 1st aid room:D.It was my last match of 2006 score 6-2.One funny thing,i pulled the handle of the door and yes nearly locked us all in the 1st aid room and had the same comment "blame it on the cadet" i get it alot!.
O yeah gcses mocks coming up have i done any revision no just p.e as I'm actually interested in it as it includes first aid and health!and anatomy and physiology. Also thanks to people like carmelo who left my first few comments actually still encouraging me on stuff like this it seems like i am what he was like 4 years ago!

2006-12-21T22:27:00.000Z

Over This month alot has been running through my head.Its not just christmas.Every teacher is pushing us to the maximum as we have are "mock"gces coming up. The boys like me, who are likely to leave have been told to look around colleges.I started doing this in year 10! so i had a good idea my main choices were;

NHS Cadet Scheme NVQ level 2

Public Services-National diploma

LOCON acess to Paramedic Studies

Over much consulation with Paramedics and univeristy lectures,i decided to join the public services national diploma,this is equal to three A levels if i perform well:D. I need to get 5 GCSE'S at grade A-C.

Will i make it?

The Book i will be reading everyday,One small book for the course,one big step for Joe
