On Friday, itself, went over to AMK to meet him and change our money + brought some snacks for our journey there. Saw the atrium filled with balloon sculpture. Very fascinated leh! So many many many balloons and different shape and sizes and patterns.

Met the rest at CQ and board the bus.
I was excited and nervous for our test throughout the entire journey.

Broad on the ferry ride to Tioman Island was the most tedious and terrible experience for me ever.
Suffered from sea sick so badly. My face turned pale white. So tried to sleep all the way and got drenched by the splash of seawater. But one thing wonderful was the night sky was full of stars!!!!!

Like how I saw it in Philippines. Memories leh. =PP
Finally arrived the resort and checked-in immediately @6am.

Beach.

Wearing of wet suit was really tedious for me as well.

I need the other three ladies to help me. Roslin was sweating even before our training starts.

Was literally LOL while wearing it. HAHAHA!

Underwater basic test.

Heehee. Love you! HAHA

We completed our basic skills within the first two dive in shallow water. Had to rush for our lunch and board the ferry to another part of Tioman for our third dive.

high butt. HAHAHA!

This time round the third dive was much into the deep water. We could see more marine life there.

The seabed is full of sea urchin. I saw them and I was panicking like hell.

p/s: kenna before by that so Im afraid of it.

I was signalling to Alex that I am scared of the sea urchin on the seabed.

Plus I still cant get my buoyancy right by floating or maintaining on the same depth constantly. Thus I was panicky everytime when I see myself touching the seabed. Eventually I will inflated myself to float up by a little, but I will tend to float way too much to the surface. HAHA! Wrong.

There was once I nearly hit the bottom of the ferry. Lucky our coach rush up and pull me down.

=XXXXX

<3 <3 <3

p/s: E. Finally something right?? XD HAHAHAH!

BBQ + buffet for dinner.

The whole fish was sup! ^^

Their ramily burger also bagus lah! =DD

After dinner, we had our final test and then chillax.

Mood sway at that time. Too tired le~~~~

Had a good night sleep and woke up for our last two dives.

Second day, with the last two dives.

Second last was still a dive test.

Throughout this dive A was holding me, cause I could balance well and I have problem equalizing my ears.

Scary. I was quite emo when I returned to the boat as knowing that I did not do well. =(

Felt like a burden to the whole group. =X Then even more emo. =((

After some advises from coach samuel and serena, I felt slight better. Just need more confidence.

Thank you Thank you both!! ^^

Finally the last was a leisure one.

This time round I was slightly better as i could swim by myself most of the time. ^^

Saw two crown fishes (close up) loitering around its house. So cute.

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU for rushing to me whenever Im lost, confuse, in danger
and panicking underwater. Hugs hugs. I will improve with more dives okay? Lets plan again. ^^
Visited carwreck!

I think without A around me, I might have failed or even give up half way.
Likewise, roslin, YZ, YJ and Junhao. Who keep encouraging me all the time and taking care of me as well.
