Hi everybody ! Hope you're feeling better Jazzy ! I'm sure you'll pass with flying colours - you are so determined ! Hey do you have life jackets/preservers, buoyancy aid on for this test, by the way?

They throw dummies and objects in the lake and we have to dive in and bring them to shore.

Wow, the water temp is freezing, good luck with your test!:-6

Thank you so much Gill for having confidence in me. The class started with 20 applicants (only three of us were females) and two of them didn't make it to the final written and dive test. There are ten of us left right now. I am the only surviving female with nine men. Woot! Imagine me and nine men :wah: We have no life jackets/preservers, buoyancy aid on for this test. The reasoning is that if were truly a water rescue, you wouldn't be wearing any of that. I'm feeling pumped up and better and I'm ready to prove that I deserve a spot on this team. If for some reason I don't make it, I went "down" trying :wah:

Odie · Post by **Odie** » Wed Mar 24, 2010 10:23 am

don't say that, you went down trying ffs!:yh_rotfl

That's strange, I guess I watch to much t.v. as the rescuers wear life jackets.

You should be proud you have made it this far, its obvious you have what it takes.

Hi Jazzy,

Good luck on your test tomorrow. You are amazing....:-6

Good morning everyone (I think). I passed the written exam this morning but they have called off the dive test due to the winds today: TODAY - Becoming sunny. Highs in the upper 20s. North winds 15 to 20 mph with gusts up to 30 mph. I'm very disappointed as I was ready to go and get it over with (one way or the other) :-1

Here is a link to a live webcam showing Lake Champlain as of this morning:

Not sure when they will reschedule the dive test but I'll let you all know

Well done Jazzy, for passing the written test! :-6

:yh_clap:yh_clap:yh_clap

Sorry about the practical, though, as you'd got yourself all psyched up for it. Still, better to be safe than take unnecessary risks, after all it is only a test and not an actual situation! I don't suppose they will want to delay the testing too much, knowing that people will want to get it over with and qualify. (Hopefully the temps will be a little better for when the practical is rearranged !

Good morning Kathy Ellen!

I'm doing good today and hope you are too. There has been no word yet on the dive test. I think what they are going to do is just call us with no previous notice. I'm ready when they are

How are things at the shore? I say it every time but I'll say it again...I miss NJ!

Oh, I'm glad that you miss Noo Joisey Jazzy. It's nice to hear good things about our state.

Things are great. I'm in Siesta Key, FL and enjoying every minute of it. It's lovely here and 20 degrees warmer than NJ.

Good luck when you take your test.

wonderful!

my clown fish aren't doing well at all, one is on the bottom laying down, barely breathing and the other one is there keeping him company, unless they are both dying, they have been inseparable since they have been sick, one was always trying to get the parasites off the other.
