cause i ain't got you.

you put your shoes on and walked away before i could say.

dive like a butterfly! :D

Lol, totally doesn't make sense but who cares?

today was a hell lot of fun, laughter, pee, and also nerves! i think it's gonna get worse when we do the open waters test :(

had a warmup swim of four rounds at first. wah lau, no goggles. hence, i was pretty breathless. to think that pool water is actually being kind to our eyes already. i don't dare to think about salt water =/ then, it was five minutes of threading water. we had to do a dive down to the bottom of the pool without goggles. lol, i tried opening my eyes and i could see a little! so amazing! =D

For the exercises, we did mask clearing (i'm terribly afraid of salt water okay!!=/ ), clearing of the regulator, air-sharing with buddy, finning, buoyancy control, rescue drills and what not. it was quite nerve-wrecking at first, not being able to descend, and then needing to adjust to breathing through the regulator. i thought i did quite badly today! so many problems :( i wonder if i'll be safe on the dive trip man. han, i hope i won't do anything wrong! sigh, i hate my blurness and stupidity at times like this. i'll try really hard okay. darling i love you! :)

always thought that water was my "element" but i realised it is not! i'm only happy and safe when i swim lah. the sea is a whole new thing to me. and i'm quite scared, to be honest! :( plus, the equipment is so heavy lah! and i can't sink! hoho, good luck estella.

the seniors are very nice though, they tried helping us as best as they could. wish i was as good and relaxed as them!

oh yes, i remember we couldn't go for toilet break, so those who were urgent had to pee in the pool! eeeew. lol but very funny! the guys said they were stressed and couldn't pee with everyone looking at them. Yucks! i drank a fair bit of pool water leh!

then another hilarious incident was about a guy 'scolding' his buddy. "oei you got alot of air in your tank is it!?", or something along those lines. his buddy was breathing through the regulator even though he was floating at the surface of the pool. =.= so he scolded him for wasting oxygen, but then he found out that his buddy was actually using his spare regulator to breathe! OMG! HAHAHAHA! the expression was classic man. hilariously insanely funny. i think about it also want to laugh. (:

oooh yes, i dropped my earphones sponge into the drain today! BAH. and i lost my earring. malcolm stepped on it. HAHA. i feel quite bad ah. but cannot find it back already! malcolm tried finding it for me, but it's gone. i think i'm a suay girl.

the seniors laughed at hairy and i! cause our passport photos are soooo horrendous! Lol. even i think i look like a joke. couldn't stop laughing when i saw my passport photo last night. they said they see ghost in broad daylight. bahaha. i was reluctant to hand it over to malcolm lah! stupid man, they just kept laughing. i really must master the traits of my younger days. nerd specs, reluctant smile, sleepy eyes. hoho.

gosh, i think i will get high after a dive. not good at all. i don't want to kena nitrogen narcossis and start singing the library song! LOL.

left for pizza hut! it was really good. pictures time! :D :D :D
