Have just finished my Rescue course in Diving, which also means I am trained in first aid. The stupidest thing is that I actualy have to ask permission if I want to aid someone who needs first aid. This do basically just apply in the US tho, since I could get sued there if I applied first aid and they got worse or whatever... Anyway, the phrase goes as this: Hello, my name is "insert name here", I am an emergencey responder, may I help you? Of course, if they r unconcious it's implied agreement. But still, running around the last couple of days and asking ppl that question have just felt really, really stupid.

Today was the last day of the course, and the practical exam was the hardest bloody thing I can remember have done in a really long time. I was almost crying with exhaustion at the end, and if someone dares to tell me that it's soft... But, at least I know I can, find a unconsious diver under water, make an ascend with the dver, give rescuebreath while I am taking the diver to shore and at the same time ditch all the gear, carry that bloody diver onto land, and still give rescue breath every fve second. So, today it's beers, even tho I reckon I have two, and then I'll fall over... Ok, time for dinner.
