lalala..
im back from the world underwater.
awesome.

left on fri night. 7 pm. reached tioman ard 4.20 am. so tht's abt 8 1/2 hrs of traveling..
not bad.
haha.. but pretty long considering it's spore to m'sia.
neways, we did total of 6 dives in 2 days.

saturdae
did 3 day dives and a night dive.
mans, saw loads of fishes and diff kinds of err, stuff. hahas..
saw some clown fish and sea anemone, lots and lots of sea urchin and tons of other stuff.
and there was this huge batfish tht followed us ard.. well, at least until it found another batfish.
so sweet. hees.

ohhh, the night dive was rrly scary.
it's like diving in the dark plus there was a slight drift.. so it was harder to control our movement.
saw this porcupine fish,which looks like a pufferfish.. cheryl ( our instructor ) went to disturb it den it puffed up.. so cutee!
haha. its face was like so blur blur ders. and the small fins flapping ard..
rrly funnie.
saw, a moray eel, GIANT barracodas....etc.

sunday
got on the boat by 7 am and ate breakfast there.
the boat captain toasted the bread for us. so thoughtful..
lol.

if u ever wondered how it feels like to cling on to the back of the boat while it's moving rrly fast?
well, lemme tell ya..
it RAWKS!

u see, i was standing on the platform at the end of the boat. scoped up some water to clean my wetsuit cos it was a bit dirty..
and i fell in.
thk God i caught the stairs bar.
rrly fun..
den zhang kan, one on the divers doing the rescue dive trainings, pulled me up.
hehes.
so strong..lol.

ps.
embarrassing..

in the dives,
we saw wrecks and a turtle..!
so cute.
during tht dive, i lost my weight belt..
so it was harder to keep my buoyancy and i started floating upwards.
den i came outta the water and couldnt get back down..
but nic sean and cheryl didnt noe tht i didnt follow them.
so i was stranded at this jetty we dived all the way to..

didnt noe wad to do so i waited while looking at the fish underneath.
after a while they found me..
whee'
hahas.

the sea urchin's were creepy.
lol.

on the way back, my back got sunburnt.
pain..
it's rrly redd.
feel cooked..
