I passed!!!
I made it!!
and i'm not the only one who pass...
all those who took their test pass as well...
the happiness that all of us felt is something that cant be described in words..
the sense of achievement that i felt when the examiner said, "all of u have passed.."
the 6 months of training, from 'cannot' become a 'can'..
from the 3:40 that i used to clock became the 2:30 that i clocked today...
not only did we overcome the tough trainings, all of us broke our records oso..
esp wayne and jolynn..the 2 pro!!
really makes one wonder how they actually clocked 2:14 and 2:40 respectively...
for wayne...coach expected it, but it still shock me...
coz its the fastest timing that one can ever achieve..
for jolynn...
just ytd..her timing was 3:20..
BUT TODAY HER TIMING WAS 2:40!!
even the coach was stunned...
he said that he expect jolynn to pass but nvr expect her to do so well...
congrats to the two of them...

hmm...for myself...
i really felt proud of myself..
not the negative type of coz...
just ytd night, i was telling my mum that i might not be able to make it...
and she just ask me to offer prayers to my ancestors..so just did as told..
den this morning, she made a light breakfast for me and tell me to remain calm during the test just before i left home...
den when i noe i've passsed,
i called her immediately and i can tell from her voice that she's equally happy as me..
really great to have such a supportive mum with me..

haha...seems like its easy to pass hor...
but u will noe how tough it is if u are at the scene...
for the entire 45mins or maybe longer...
the examiner just tekan us at the theory part...
ask alot of qns inside the book which we carelessly forgot to read..
and the stupid thing is that the moment i speak, he will go on to the next person...
wad a weird person...
made me so scared that i will fail...
and somemore its under the soso hot sun sia...
this one still ok...
den he made us change into our clothings..
den he talk for another 15mins...and just let us stand there bbq-ing under the sun...
to the extent that i almost collapse due to lack of water sia...
so when towing ji peng back..
i just gulped down a few mouthful of pool water..
that goes to show how desperate i am for water....
haha...and its the first time i do the item without goggles..
and the first time i did it by 2:30...
=D

aiya...all in all...
phillip ng is the last few exmainer that u will want to have as ur tester...
like wad coach says..
he has a weird character and u cant challenge him at all...
he just failed wei yi halfway through the test...
if it werent for wei yi's determination to carry on with the test, he wouldnt have made it..
really felt happy for him...
congrats wei yi..u did it!!!

he may be irritating in some sense, but being tested under him can be a good thing oso,
at least he will ensure that u will be a good lifeguard in the future...
and i really learnt some things from him...
esp the cross infection...
haha..he has his good points and bad points la...
nice experience but guess i wun carry on any further ba...
unless i really cant make it into the spf den maybe will consider taking up more of such courses and become an examiner...maybe nia...
haha...so after that we went to dover mkt to celebrate the first day being a qualified lifeguard!!
haha..now the 5 of us will focus on winning medals during the nus invitational lifesaving comp liao...
and u noe wad...the first training is 3rd jan, which is the second day of sch...
=(...not enough time to slack!!!!
