Water Polo

For those of you that don't know what is Water Polo, I'll do my best to explain the basic of it. Water Polo consist of six filed players; two Wings, two Drivers, an Offensive Hole/Set, and a Defensive Hole/Point, plus the Goalie. The point of the game is to score in the opponent's goal. The filed players can only touch the ball with one hand, and are not allowed to put it under water. The pool must be at least 5.9ft deep, but it's preferable for the pool to be around 7 - 10feet. Players can not touch the bottom of the pool or use it for advantage. Hope I didn't forget anything basic, and hope you guys get interested and decide to watch a game for better learning.

On the way to the IDF

Four month ago or so I moved to Israel from Miami. I did my "Tzhave Rishon" (Army mental tests and health tests) This procedure took me about 3month instead of a day or two, because I was excited that it caused my blood pressure to be too high.. Unfortunately there is a rule that they need 10 different blood pressures on different days to make sure that my blood pressure is fine.. I got my "Tshav Giyus" not so long ago and my "Kaba" is 56 (witch is a perfect score if I'm not mistaking)  and my medical profile is 82. (97 is perfect, 82 is right after..) Now if you saw me you would be surprised that I got an 82... The doctor put some disturbing stuff about me on the defects... I am in a really good shape, but my body genetics is different and for example; the doctor put on the paper that I had a weird chest, flat feet and etc... also I broke my hand, so I had little stuff like that that made my Profile 82. -.-  Now I am still "new" in Israel and I'm not sure at all in what I want to do in the Army... Since I "love" activities that involve water I though that maybe "Shayetet 13" will fit me the best.

All I need to do now is to keep calling everyday the army to make sure that I get a "Yom shayarot" as well as to get an appointment with a doctor to chance my Profile to 97, because my chest is perfect, my feet aren't flat, and I am in a great condition... :)
