Hey Guys, I have been playing Counter-Strike Source for just about 2 years by now.
So here’s a little about myself:
I am in the Métis Tribe of Canada. I have most roots in the Algonquin Nation and a few coming from the Mohawk Nation. We have traced ourselves from Canada back to before the Europeans came on my mother’s side. Unsure about my father’s side, but we know there is strong Native Blood either way.
I am 17 years old in second semester of Grade Eleven and basically have my entire future planned out with the help of parents and guidance counsellors. I have my courses planned out for next year to point me directly in the path of becoming a Paramedic.
One of my biggest hobbies, aside from reading is Primitive and Medieval Warbow Archery. I do a lot of Primitive archery, such as; making my own arrows, bowstrings, and at some point, bows. I am part of a rising branch of the English Warbow Society from Canada (my friend runs it and is getting it up and moving).
I work at the CP Pool as a Lifeguard/Swim Instructor/Lifesaving Instructor/First Aid Instructor and I am currently signed up and excited to take my First Aid Instructor Course, Advanced Instructor Course this Saturday (March 10th), Examiners Standards Clinic, and AED course ( March 13) aswell. (~$800)
Take Care guys.
Minwikijigan,

Yayyyy medical schtuff. Prepare for a lot of Greek and Latin. First aid courses are either dull lecture/text reading or a lot of fun with demos. Nothing says fun like clearing landing zones, fake impaled victims, and getting told that you now have permission to set broken limbs.
(If you're that outdoorsy, look into Wilderness FA/EMT courses, they're a lot of fun)

I'm prepared and have been preparing for years now. I make sure I only pick the First Aid Courses that we do practice situations in. I find it very boring to sit there and be lectured by people. Most courses that involve a good mix between lectures and situations are, in my experience, Lifesaving Society.
I agree that the most fun thing to do is First Aid. Despite how bad it sounds, I love having the rush of being able to help someone whether they are hurt or not. The down side to First Aid is that someone has to be hurt for you to be able to use it.
I have my school paying for a course in Wilderness FA and I plan on becoming an EMT as soon as I possibly can with a First Aid Instructor job on the side.
I have to keep up to date with my job at a camp and at a ski hill.
This is going to sound cheesy, but I've been through a lot of different courses through Scouting and have had to teach a few first aid/outdoor classes.
It takes a special breed of people to be aware of the situation and when to step up. The other day some girl passed out in my Chem class and no one else moved to act except for me >.>

I have to keep up-to-date with my job at the pool. I just realised this morning while at a course that I am going to be the only teenage or young adult teaching advanced courses next year because everyone else will be gone to Uni or College.
Why did she pass out? Silent Seizure? TIA? What was it that made her faint?
