I have finally met one of the goals I set for me self a few years ago, that was to get into our fire dept rookie class. This time I finally made it!!! Now I should mention that I already work for the dept so I'm kind of a internal transfer, I attempted to get in once before but fell about 10 feet short. So I have taken a lot of crap over the last few years since that failure (all in good fun though), so I got back in the gym, and made certian if I got a second chance that there would be no room for failure. So This year I got my chance and posted a pretty repectable time for the physical test, so now I'm just riding out the next few weeks in the shop till rookie class starts.
I'm so freakin' excited, I know everyone dreams about being a firefighter, but now I actually get my chance to be one! I never thought I'd actually be excited about going back to school, but I guess as we get older we change (sometimes for the better I guess
). Anyway just thought I'd share what's been going on lately.
