Killing some time before Taps, so i figured I'd give all of those who follow this blog (and thus my life) a glimpse into what it's like to be a Hospital Corps student. Assuming anyone does actually read this! So I hope you understand military time, because that's actually how I think now.
0520: Wake up
0520-0600: Shave, dress, clean room so it's inspection ready
0610-0700: Chow
0700: Muster in the classroom
0700-1030: Classroom didactic instruction (or the occasional lab)
1030-1200: Chow
1200-1530: Classroom didactic instruction (or the occasional PT session from HM1)
1600: Liberty call Liberty call! Free time begins, civilian clothing authorized
1600-1730: Run errands at the big Nex across base, PT, Study, or relax
1730-1900: Chow
1900-2100: Night Study. As EPO I have to help conduct this every other night
2100-2130: Hygiene
2200: Taps Taps, lights out
That's basically how most of the days during the week run. Now that we've got our phase 2, weekends involve a lot of eating, sleeping, and finding fun off base. This weekend will also involve a lot of studying, as Test 4 is on Monday. So there you have it. Today we spent the last half of class PTing and practicing our firefighter carry on the beach. For something we might be practicing in combat one day, it was way too much fun. I'm thinking about practicing it on my fellow shipmates in the barracks, although then we might end up practicing our first aid skills too.
