..i must admit i never quite understand how diving can be such a powerful aphrodisiac..so i decided to get myself "into" diving and experience it myself. a bunch of friends have been planning to go diving together..merv, soon yean and pei yin are gonna do their rescue dive while me, robert and grace are doing our open water dive (beginner)..while jason and tomo will just join us for the trip. destination: pulau perhentian.
started the journey by making the deposit payment, get my manuals (still not excited yet)...
started reading my manuals as i need to accomplished that before attending my knowledge development classes for open water dive. it did feels like going back to school again, the whole reading, highlightin important points, quizzes..okay till this point everything still sounds a lil un-excited, an plain.
then came the 1st class, and it got a lil more interesting as the instructor explain on the whole diving expereince, the procedures and the equipments..it got even more interesting when we did our 1st confined water (pool session) where we get to suit up and put on the gears..and yea..we learn how to breathe using the regulator as underwater is totally different (wanna know more how it works, register yourself for diving and you'll now what i mean) i guesss you never know how it is and what it feels like till you get the 1st hand experience yourself..which explains why i can never able to imagine and understand how merv gets super duper excited about diving before this..now i am in it i totally get it (well at least when he talks about the equipments and diving stuffs i totally understand and sees it) ..
it gets more and more excited as we attended more classes. still got one more pool session and a lil test on the knowledge of open water diving and we are all geared for our open water dives at perhentian..ohh la la...and also i get to use merv's old wet suit which is still in very good condition ;) do intend to get my own mask.. saw one that i quite fancy at global scuba the other day at one utama..reasonable priced too. more reason to get it...*winks*
cant wait till the open water dives, discovering the beauty of the underwater paradise and what makes it even more exciting is the company of good friends..all the craps chattin, the dives, the laughters and alchohols...ohh...stay tune for the updates from the trip. to be posted next month april as the trip is april 11-14 ...awesome!

Hi Joanne! Sze Yoong here! Hehehe...I lost your number so please sms me again. Hey babe, just a word of advice, well I was a sucky diver so my experience diving friends told me not to get any equipements until I've tried diving. No point as you will have to spend lots of money and then in the end if you don't like diving, you'll be keeping all your equipements for nothing. So rent!
