the fasting days are finally over and it's time to indulge in good food once again!

well, at least i did have some good food even though i didn't go to a lot of houses. i think i only went to only 3-4 houses and only one of them functions like an open house. for the rest, i just had kuihs and pastries. still, it's really good to celebrate the Raya during my NS.

anyway, i have just completed my medic course! remember when i said that i could become a station medic working 12 hours shift starting from 2 days work, 2 days off and followed by 2 nights work. i didnt become one! i became instructor instead!
a medical instructor :)

i dont mind becoming one.. in fact, i believe it's going to be a challenge to teach future fire fighters, officers and medics. and i shall relish that challenge! and being an instructor also means i will stay at the civil defence academy for the rest of my remaining ns life.

so how do i look? and that is not my tummy bulging ahh!

my ns buddy Afham who stayed with me thru thick and thin for 14 weeks. he's going paya lebar firestation.

another buddy of mine, Azhar, who will also be an instructor too. out of 47 trainees, only 4 of us became instructors namely me, this guy, and 2 other chinese fellows.

to mark the end of the 7 weeks training, we had to present with some performance. i dont know whether i can post it in the but i know this video is not something that will mar the good name of scdf.

i think the event that i remember most is the passing out ceremony. it is the day where i got my medic badge, my course cert and my bcls cert! i didnt cry but i do feel sad knowing that perhaps i wont be able to see most of my mates again. but that's normal right? u see or dont see some ppl at all in ur life.

in the ceremony, there were 4 awards that were given out to 4 trainees. they were The most Improved Trainee, Best in Theory, Best in Practical and Best Overall Trainee. my 2 mates got the first 2 awards and when my name is called out for the 3rd award, i was elated. and when my name is called out again to receive the 4th award, i was OVERJOYED!

i practically ran up and was smiling with glee to the officer who is giving out the award. and when i reached there with open hands, the officer was shocked and asked " didnt i already gave u ur award?" obviously i was dumbfounded.

and he said " SORRY! wrong person!"

i feel extremely embarassed and all my friends were saying "eh an-nur! u already won best in practical and u want best trainee some more! dont be kiasu lah!" LOL!

the next time i blog will be about my instructor's life. and the next time u see me, u can also call me Instructor An-Nur :))) hahahah!
