kick off was yesterday.. had to report at 8am.. so freaking early for a saturday.. hahaa.. i'm used to sleeping till about 10 on saturdays ar.. :S hahaa..
and so.. went early to help set up the place.. the first aid bag was.. well.. hai~ no antiseptic lotion, no alcohol swabs.. only got the yellow solution, eye wash.. dots.. think SCL should invest in a first aid kit.. can easily get the required stuff at hospital pharmacies ar.. that's where we used to go to get our supplies for st john's competition ar.. hahaa.. :D asked around for some "spf in a tube" a.k.a sunblock.. applied on my face, hands and legs.. thanks to meena and her wonderful sunblock, i wasn't burnt at all for the first time, though i was under the sun the ENTIRE day :D:D happy happy.. hahaa.. think i should get myself one too, since i get burnt so easily.. hahaa..
the event kicked off at about 9+.. with the first injury from the girls' game with the year ones.. one guy got hit in the face.. but nothing also la.. just pain ar.. i also can't do much.. then there was aug's leg wound.. wound split open sia.. and i suggested he don't play le.. just in case it aggravates his wound more.. but he want to ar.. so i just did what i could to protect it and after each game, he just has to look for me to clean up and change dressing.. oh well.. gotta understand, guys and their games/soccer cannot be separated de.. so.. what to do.. just do whatever i can and let them ba.. they know their own limits.. along the games, everyone was just shouting "medic,medic" but never say which field needs the medic.. so chin boon, shang-feng and I were just scanning the field.. till we told them to tell us exactly which field, then we can attend to the casualty much faster ma.. most of them were just cramps, with some being kicked in the shin and muscle strains.. so we ended up with insufficient heat spray and cold spray for them.. need more in future.. especially heat spray.. it was fun being back on duty i guess.. running from field to field, helping people.. but 1 first aid kit for 2 fields, not effective ar.. cos there were instances where "medic!! field B" and as we just brought the guy out of the field, "medic!! field A".. so chin boon and I were just running from field to field, carrying peole out and waiting for sf to come over with the 1 pathetic heat spray.. the matches were fun.. but it wasn't as fun as NYP Kick It though.. and the soccer tournaments i watched when in JC.. oh well.. Pink Sakura A won the race in the end.. hahaa.. all right fayyadz.. you were right.. hahaa.. then there was a lecturer-student match.. first they were against the champion team.. nothing much except for muscle cramps then.. then after the break, joga and black bodies wanted to play.. cos afterall, the graduating batch wants a last chance to play with the lecturers i guess.. hahaa.. the match was more violent as both sides went all out in the game.. AK looks really cute playing.. hahaa.. then there were clashes between lecturer and students.. and the one that stole the show in the end was ram.. his injury really caught everyone's attention.. a low incised wound on the lower eyelid and 2 small cuts on the upper eyelid.. brought him behind the stadium to clean the wound.. used the eyewash.. couldn't bandage or anything ar.. using an eye bandage would only exaggerate the wound la.. and from there, i really felt a strong sense of sibling love.. when meena came running over when she realise it was ram who was injured and being there for him the entire time.. heard that she wept when i was cleaning the wound.. it's really touching.. left some instructions for meena after that.. on how to clean the wound, and get him a small plaster for the lower wound.. din wanna put a humongous one there.. hahaa.. don't worry meena, it's nothing major *hugs.. he's ok, yea.. :D
well, after the event ended at about 4+, i had my very late, cold lunch.. hahaa.. was really tired since it's been ages since i ran around so much.. not complaining though.. it's exercise and it was fun.. slept the entire journey home.. ate a cookie for dinner.. quite cool ar.. only had 1 meal ytd.. :D hahaa.. but never lose weight leh :S hahaa..
this morning, woke up with muscle aches all over my legs.. hahaa.. from the work out ar.. hahaa.. pain but very nice feeling.. sadistic or what.. i'm actually enjoying the ache.. hahaa..
oh well.. guess i should go back to doing my reports.. have 4 reports to hand in next week.. and here i am, procrastinating.. luckily, there's vesak day to do as well.. hahaa.. :D if not, i'm dead meat.. wahaha.. alright then.. should stop my procrastination and get back to work.. but guess i'll go get something to munch on first.. hahaa..
till then!!
take care guys :D
l then!!
