Just another day in first aid class

I'm in lecture today and my poor lecturer is from Trinidad and Tobago. Great guy, and I wish I had his entire lecture recorded. For example: He described himself as a fetus, living in his apartment (uterus), with his carpet as the placenta, his door as the birth canal and his internet cable as the umbilical cord exposing him to the world wide web. lol.

Anyhow, he's pretty funny, but I think it's a cover-up for the fact that he hates this job and hopes he doesn't have to keep doing this. lol.

Yay for pregnancy in class. I love that my lecturer handed this off to a sub because he didn't want to teach it himself. Please enjoy our guest Jason's comments in quotes...

"Ladies, you have a lot to look forward to. You might poop while giving birth. If you do, just pretend it never happened."

"If you are helping with a birth, remember: You don't want your hand down there, and then on a sandwich, and then down there."

As I continue to blog during class, I just got complimented by him for answering questions directly and correctly. "There's only one guy in this class who answers questions. Great." Too bad he doesn't know I'm also editing a paper, chatting with Brittany, and making a ppt.

The good news is, it looks like it's all good once you get the head out. Phew...

Apparently this link is actually a legit undercover capture, lol. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J9n9JJKlIpI
I still don't know how to make these links work. I tried to attached the link, and yet when I posted the link it wasn't there. AHHHH! the frustration.

Now we're discussing heat and cold stress. "If it's January and you're in a Speedo, that's a problem. Same as if you're in a winter coat in August."

"Rap music?" (as he leans over a student) "Oh, that's good. No, really, I like rap music, but I can't understand Gucci. All I hear is rah rah rah rah (then high pitched voice) Gucci! I'm a foreigner and can't understand him".

"So, if it's early in the morning ... and I'm going to practice early and I have my hands down my pants, I'm just keeping them warm." ... "It's just that my groin is most accessible to me."

"In my version of the movie (Titanic), Jack would have lived. Rose would've got her own boat. Or she could have shared. Jack got played."
