1st Open Water Diving trip to Tioman!

IT'S RECESS WEEK!!! My friends and i decided to sign up for the school's basic diving trip to Tioman which happened last Friday. OMGosh, it was such.an exhilarating experience. First of all, i'm scared of the water so i dunno what came over my mind to sign up for this thing. I COULD HAVE DIED. But i dint. :)

Anyws, i thought i will be able to make it for the actual trip and i had a very bad panic attack during the swim test at the pool session. I could not breathe properly and I couldn't even swim well! Luckily, the dive master was kind enough to let me take my time to SLOWLY swim the 8 laps and i eventually finished the test. Felt like eternity though. :(

I had a few more panic attacks during the diving part but it was not as bad as the swim test. lols.
Had a few nightmares before the trip but I still went ahead with it. LOLS.

Off we go~

Special thanks to our dive instructor: Emma and dive master: Karen!

YAY! We are certified open water divers now! :D Super excited. I'm glad i went on this trip and met loads of awesome people! At first i was terrified, especially the part where we had to jump into the water. During my first dive, i told the dive master ,who was helping get into the water, "I'm really scared" LOL but i still jump in the end and it got kinda addictive. HAHAS

Diving is truly a wonderful experience. Glad that my friends asked me along! Wheee~
