Went back to Pulau Dayang to take my AOW. Reason bcos it's a familar place. And feedback from many said that Tioman hasn't got much things to see. So best option Dayang again.
We so suay lor. Half way in M'sia. Mini-van broke down @11pm. Air-con spoil, head light, brake light all gone. Dangerous to move on. So waited for the backup van to pick and send us to the jetty which arrive only at 1.30am. So by the time we reach jetty already 2.20am le. Luckily the boat we got on has got sleeping place. Slept thru the journey.
Reach Dayang almost 7am liao. Breakfast was at 8am before we go for our dive. Heng got slp on the boat else sure cannot make it.
This time round, i find it very very tiring. Was panting on every dive. Is it bcos the duration is longer as compare to open water course? As approx. we stayed under the water for arn 1hr. Maybe it's due to this reason. Gotta go get myself fit by going for more swimming i think.
Ay... I dunno when i'll get the photos from my instructor. Apparently, the last trip photos haven been uploaded yet. So i guess it's gone case already bah!
Everytime come back also pek chek with my buddy. Cos she's stone throughout the dive. Already give her the 仙丹 but still no use. I got no more elixir for u already leh. Train my patient also rite!! See where's my limit.
Some interesting things worth mentioning during the dive.
Firstly, was the underwater navigation.
We were suppose to navigate in a square shape. As shown.
Guess what? Buddy got disoriented at the 3rd bend. From 180° to 270°. Dunno she go where. So in the end, she gotta repeat this thing for many times. Yeah, bored for me. Cos i'm waiting at the start point alone. Everytime instructor Stanley ask me wait at a place for him. What if trigger fish come attack me how? *_*"
Secondly, as we go deeper, we will feel the nitrogen narcosis effect (narked).
[Nitrogen narcosis or inert gas narcosis is a reversible alteration in consciousness producing a state similar to alcohol intoxication in scuba divers at depth. It occurs at any depth, but in most cases doesn't become noticeable until deeper depth.]
So before that, buddy was hoping that i'll get "high" and do stupid action at a depth of 30m. But heng for me. I feel perfectly fine. Could do all task that instructor gave. For eg: mask removal, doing maths calculation and spell my name in reverse order. So who would have guess that buddy tio the "narked" effect. Couldn't do her maths. On land her maths already cannot make it le. Underwater even worse. So now we know where to get the extra cash from huh!! *evil laugh*
Thirdly, we almost got attack by trigger fish. The fish was damn big lor. And i was position last of the dive group. Wah nearly scare the hell out of me. Scared the fish charge at me sia. Stanley already took out his pointer preparing to fight with it liao. Deal with that stupid fish for awhile before it decided to swim away. Wah lao make me fin like mad lor. And the in-house fin no good one. Am getting my own set of fin, mask+snorkel, gloves and booties.
Lastly, my buddy float away AGAIN! Had a hard time pulling her down. Cos i'm also being pulled up by her. At one point i was below and facing her. Grabbing her hand then put my hand on her tank and gave her a hard push down. 'Xiong' leh... But heng manage to get her back in place. Was abit scared that when i push her down, i might go up myself. Dangerous man...
Buddy... think u owe me alot ah. Save u many times le. Wanna sponsor me on trip? Hee hee hee ^_^
Oh and did i mention we didn't have a spot on the boat bench to place our tank. So we hero liao lor. We gear up on the floor. Squatting down and put on everything. Before we
stabilize ourselves and stand up. Steady rite? I also think so! Muahahaha. Not alot of girls can do that it u know. Most of the girls i see on the trip is those weak, gentle kind. Like need help most of the time. So i feel proud of myself and buddy.
I remember buddy didn't have the strength to open up the tank valve. Cos her finger tio cut. So i help her lor. It's abit tight lah. And i saw one of the crew coming over to help le. But by the time he's there, i already manage to open it. And his reaciton was: "Wah.... strong ah!!" Funny thing is all these while, instructor Stanley is watching lor. So he commented in Malay that i very good lor. And he seems proud also. Hahah very crappy leh. I still gave the "yeah" sign to the crew lor. Stupid me!
To Buddy:
Next time dun stone stone again hor. And dun cut urself also. Be steady ok!!
From Buddy
That's all for my dive trip. So happy that i got my license. Next trip shld be in Aug. Wonder how is it going to be like. Do i need to go for course to teach how to use camera underwater? Gotta think abt it.
See how bah!
