Dive 1- Stress level 80%
Shit man... after 3 years absent from any dive.. was lead straight to assemble the equipments. Bloody hell, i can't even really 100 % sure which button is deflate and which is inflate..thought i am very sure the cylinder is the oxigen tank..And before the dive, the stupid Pig head dive operator , as if the 'unfamiliarity' hasn't burden me enough, keep stressing how distant my last and... Only dive trip was..problematic, problematic, his bloody expression looked more worried than me. on the boat ride out to the sea, still try the very last minute of revision- verbally...Before realising.. boom !.. .. shit.. can not sink..in a kelam kabut way.. pig head stuck 1 kg weight in my bcd and i sink....in a reversed position ( imagine a prawn shape posture, with waist down first, follow with head and fins). .. hang on..!!!! i have yet to properly equalize myself...... in a uncontrollable way... i 'swing' my way to the bottom... before i properly 'kneel' on the sand... i float slowly... slowly ... slowly ... up... wei..!!! pig head u not going to grap me??!... and i just float my way up... disastrous!
- not enought weight, didn't equalise properly wet suit
Dive 2- Stress level 75%
F**K ! though i m taking an advanced course, doesn;t mean my skill very advance le.. introduced to the instructor, better refresh how to 'breath' under water again.... slowly get back the rhythm. Finally sink, but in a very akward way, can't kneel in a balance way. Do i hav dog gene inside, why 1 leg keep 'floating' up.. ??
- BCD too big, tank keep swinging side way- cause imbalance.
Dive 3- Stress level 50%
Changed to a XS BCD. Great! at least i can descend legs down man...keep myself underwater longer to familirize with the deep blue and the breathing... still feel tensed.
Dive 4- Stress level 40%
Underwater Navigation? already no sense of direction above ground and i have to navigate under the deep blue?.. Dun care, any how. MAN wan to 'cubit' me liao.. totally clueless of the direction. And MAN said i m 'vertigo' . alamak! can i find a diving labrador not ? imagining ..it would be a cool one =)
Dive 5 - Stress level 35%
dark, dark , dark..Not as stressed as i expected, though i still having difficulty descend.. this time - didn't press the button hard enough!. what a reason! Anyway, the 'charming instructor to be' Francis come to rescue. Even in the darkness i can see his impatience eye 'piercing ' thru me, ‘白’了我两眼 , at least.( hey Francis, must learn to be more patient with lousy student if wan to be intructor la). There was a time, the torch out of function for few minutes, but no chance panic as the buddy MAN just right beside. I think he must be quite stressed also by tis 'vertigo' student hehe.. and after his twist and turn, torch light back to function, bloodly handicapped torch charge us 20 ringgit some more..blood sucker ! didn't see much fish in the dark water .. only the darkness get deeper and deeper..imagine outside the glow, the fishes that were eyeing us in the unknown darkness..as if, .we are the protagonists on the under water's big screen mann... eerie..what an experience!
Dive 6 - Stress level 15%
Deep Dive- 25 meter down, MAN is not going down with us. Instead, pig head was the one sinking with us.. though without my usual guardian. I was getting comfortable with the deep blue and the breathing and of cuz the rope-at least something lead me. Sinking down to 25 m and did the mathematic, brain seemed functioning well under the deep blue...swimming back to shore.. only at 1 point tend to float unvolunteerly-mistake, mistake shouldn't inflate BCD to climb the underwater slope, ok, remember to deflate a bit next time toward end of dive-tank is emptyng and tend to 'fly' and i shall anchor tis tank and bring it back to where it belong..
Dive 7- Stress level 5%
1st and last group dive.. yeah ! we dive together finally. And definitely my nicest dive for the trip, so many colourful creatures and corals to see.. practicing hovering and buddha sit at the safety stop. This is the fun one, all of us, like astranaut 'floating' in the deep blue...Now can really feel the fun! And what a way to ends the deep blue journey -the sight of a Manta Ray! awesome =)
will keep blowing bubble till 1 day total stressless, total fearless.
blow bubbles and be happy ...
