[quote=reem] Well... about that the day before my ship date happened to be New Years Day... long story short I was highly intoxicated at my apartment complex the roommates and I threw a party for some reason I went outside, and got locked outside the gate, I didn't have my key on me and the roomies weren't answering phones due to the raging party. I climbed the fence and in my drunk stupor decided it would be a good idea to leap off the gate like a frog, I landed on one foot before the other and broke my foot and fractured ankle. The recruiters pulled my contract and I had to wait six months where I then became infatuated with being a medic I chose Army over Navy. And no, I'm a combat medic and in my line of work have dealt with and deal with fractured feet and ankles all the time. I also used to work in a clinic where patients would come to be seen for possible fractures or broken bones. [/quote] Wow no kidding literally the day before you were supposed to leave? That's crazy, especially how it pushed you toward something that you seem to love doing now. Thanks for sharing that. It also makes a lot of sense now reading your IC posts; Acosta is written naturally well in her role.
