Today, we had a masseuse course classes, this time it was Protection At Work.
I almost wished we had an Anatomy instead, because the guy who was teaching didn't get the things done as he should have. First, if we have Protection at Work, or better Workplace, then he darn should have been speaking about that, but instead, we got a glorified version of sports Medicine two hours total, and most of us were baffled about his babblings. I can say for me I am relatively well educated - somewhat of a jack of all trades, but this class took the cake. It didn't help that I am deaf, and the guy was yammering as if he had a mileage to do with his tongue - he was apparently impatient to get out of the classroom - we did get some examples of how to test the reflexes, some do's and don't's but when I asked about situations when it's absolutely not advisable to massage the patient, then he began to blather something I am still unsure about, but was not important, as he didn't talk about my question in a clear and concise way. And really, this guy is a doctor with some... what 40 years of practice under his belt? I asked him if a patient with arthritis or osteoporosis or muscle atrophy was a bad candidate for a massage, but instead of that I got a detailed explanation of what were those things and some additional holier-than-thou yammering that made me inwardly twitch at the absurdity. And to the top of it all, the guy ended the class half an hours before it should have been ended - well, that was the only blessing in the entire farce of a class we had today.
Really... I am wondering just how would we get through the test on Monday....depressingly enough, I am not confident we would make it in one go. Thankfully, I had invested in two books about massage and I would have to see if I can mysteriously procure some scripts to get the holes done and over with.
And maybe .... kindly... suggest to our coordinator to get the damn man to write some script for the poor us who take this class and save the next generations the waste of time that is called Protection at Workplace class.
/Shakes head/ For crying out loud, the man isn't even a masseuse. What the actual fuck was he doing lecturing to the future masseuses about the subject he doesn't know shit about? Sports Medicine is whole lot of a different bricks than Protection At Workplace and even a third-grader would have conducted the class better. To the top of it all, he didn't even have lists with main points, Power Point presentation.... he just blathered on.
Bright points of the day - Got a good dinner in the shape of French salad, toast and banana smoothie. I swear, my big bro missed his true calling. Instead of being an electric engineer, he should have become a chef. /mournful shake of head/. Pity. But hell, yeah got a good recipe outta this for the smoothie, so the day is not lost :D
BANANA SMOOTHIE VUCKO STYLE
Ingredients:
2 bananas
2 kiwis
2 apples
1 plain yogurt
Whipped cream - for whipping (If you are lazy or don't have time, the canned one is also good enough)
Milk
The amount of ingredients used is enough for two persons... well, at least for us two was enough.
Preparation:
Peel the bananas and cut them in the pieces, do the same for the kiwis and apples - with apples, you also remove apple seeds before you cut them in smaller pieces. Get the cut fruit into the food processor and add yogurt. Add as much milk as you want - we used for one cappucino cup of milk - or at least I think so. If you want to have a thicker mixture, then you add less milk, and if you want more liquid one, then you add more milk. It's all about your preference. You can also switch milk with yogurt if you don't have enough milk, and if you are fond of milk, you can let out the yogurt. if you are lactose intolerant, you can left out the dairy products and add plain water. You just have to add more fruit then to achieve the thicker mixture if you are fond of it.
Blend it together and meanwhile whip the cream. When the smoothie is finished, pour it in the cocktail glasses or cappuccino cups if you don't have cocktail glasses, decorate with the whipped cream... and enjoy!
For those who really can't go without the choco goodness, you can sprinkle on some grate chocolate, or, if you are really a health nut, then you can also go with powdered cinnamon. If you are a lover of spicy things - I know I am - you can add chili. however, last variant is a little questionable - I am a lover of spicy things, so my taste buds can be a little skewered.
The entire preparation lasts some 15 minutes, 10 if you already have prepared fruit and have a canned tin of whipped cream handy.
Bon Appetite!
