Yey Yey! 1 After almost a year, i finally got to dive again! This time round, we went to Pulau Aur over the Good Friday weekend.
13/04/2006 (THU)Left for the dive shop at 630pm (which is so early). Rushed like mad to get home on time, take the barang barang and den headed straight to the dive shop at Concourse. We went with a different dive operator, Waikiki Dive Centre, and i wasnt sure if this trip would be a fun one anot. Made our way to Mersing, and coincidentally, the moment our van stopped, my instructor Uncle Roy's van pulled up beside us. So Qiao! hahahaa..
One thing about Pular Aur is that, there is no jetty there, so everyone has to transfer to a sampan to get to the island. Just imagine, about 12 peeps in a sampan at 4+ in the morning. The feeling is really like Wu Suo Nan Yang (with the song playing in the backgound).
14/04/2006 (FRI)First dive at 11+am, and we had 4 dives in total. All were good dives, saw turtles!!! hahhaa... Not too bad, just that we dun really like the person leading the dive. A little explanation here, on this trip, we have a head instructor call Rafi, an asst instructor (AI) Chris, a dive master (DM) Kurenai-San (jap lady who just follow us at the back), and a on-job-training newbie DM Roy. We thot that Rafi would be taking us, the leisure group, on our dives, but no, he had to take the advanced divers, so turned out it was the Roy who took us for all 4 dives. Sian man, this Roy person is so rigid and so stick to the book that he made LEISURE diving felt like a course. Damn.
In between dives, some of us went snorkelling around the shallow ends, and we saw black tip reef sharks!!!! My gooodness, it was so cool! Even tho they were swimming damn fast, i still managed to see 1 swimming away. So exciting! We didnt wanna go up, but it was almost time for our dive, so bo bian..
Den suay suay, my "best fren" had to come at the end of the last dive. Damn it.... But it wont stop me from diving!!
15/04/2006 (SAT)First dive started at 930am, and Rafi promised to take us for all the dives! Yeeppeeee!! Dives with Rafi and Chris can see alot more stuffs coz they CAN find stuffs, unlike Roy, who did not find anything at all. He really not there yet la, even Kurenai-san can find my favourite nudibranch! So anyway, maybe becoz RAfi and Chris were with us, the entire day was pure madness. Be it in the water or out of the water, these 2 are always up to something. And dunno y, i seemed to be their victim for almost everything.
First, i kena dunked into the sea by Rafi just becoz i was resting. Bloody hell, and mind u, we were on the sun deck of the boat, and he practically lifted me up, and jumped in together from a height of about 2 to 3 ms. Luckily my bikini didnt give way, phew... And like dats not enuf, he and Chris pulled me by my wetsuit and into the sea (again) as i was climbing up to the boat. I swear i wont dare to rest anymore on the sundeck, not with the 2 of them around.
We had a 3-hour break from our 3rd dive to our night dive, so in the end, we played dodgeball on the beach. Girls against Guys. It was so tiring that that 3-hour rest did not help to relax us. It made us even more shacked. hahahaaa.. But it was good fun..
16/04/2006 (SUN)Woke up for our first dive at a freaking 6am. Can somebody tell me why i have to wake up so early on a Sunday holiday morning???? But still, i woke up, hahahaha.. Its the power of DIVING. So off we went for our dawn dive, and i love that area, Captain's Point. Its full of nudibranches!! Big ones, tiny one, normal ones, freaking cute ones, you can find them there. And i was sticking to the seabed like thruout the dives. After this dive, i felt real sad, coz we are nearing the end of our 10-dives holiday. and the last dive was where round 2 of ka jiao from Rafi came. Dunno how the idea of tickling and poking underwater came to him sia, basket, anyone who went near him would get tickled and/or poked. No need to say, i kena BOTH, and from Chris also. Want to dive comfortably also cannot man, coz they will jsut sneak up from behind and ATTACK!!
Overall, it was a bloody fun trip. We have been quite lucky on choosing the dive operators. The pple we went diving with are all fun pple who can afford to play ah. One thing i got more during this trip was the number of bruises and cuts on myself. And they are split quite evenly. Let me explain ah. On my left leg, you can find majority cuts, scratches and abrasions, while my right leg, its almost covered with blue-blacks. I have like 7 t o8 of them on my right shin, and they are combining to become 1 united nation. Den my inner arm have 2 blue-blacks, dunno come from where also. In short, im just full of injuries. Hahahahaaahaaaa, but oh well, its all in the name of SCUBA DIVING!

Public hoilday tomorrow!! But everybody has been in the holiday mood since yesterday! hahahaa.. Holiday is my favourite day, esp if its on a friday or monday! hohohohohoooo.. yey yey!! its time to go diving diving over the long weekend!
Oh ytd was supposed to go for a dive refresher course that would cost me $45, but luckily my intructor had to mend the shop so cannot go down to the pool. And since we only forgotten the surface things, we had our short refresher course at the shop FREE OF CHARGE!!! muuhahahhhaa, shiok sia, save that $45, and still managed to get refreshed.
Please let the weather in Pulau Aur be good and sunny for the next 3 days, and water conditions be as calm as possible. Pleaaaassssseeeeeee!!! I wanna enjoy my holidays! And please also make everything dive a smooth, safe and successful one. Thanks de!
Bye Singapore! See ya on sunday...
` stenged @ 2:38 PM
the weekend really wore me out to the max..
Singapore 7's was alright, not as fun as last yr's tho. This yr's Cup champ is Fiji, and they are absolutely powerful! Excellent rugby played by all the teams. I like.. And i learnt a new song that goes like this (sing to the tune of "Go West" chorus part):
STAND UP, IF YOU HATE THE FRENCHSTAND UP, IF YOU HATE THE FRENCHSTAND UP, IF YOU HATE THE FRENCHSTAND UP, IF YOU HATE THE FRENCHAnd the song repeats itself.. hhahahahaa.. the crowd was so funny, love it..
After the 1st day of 7's, we went down MOMO, but we reached slightly after 11pm, and not wanting to pay for the entrance fee, we walked ard Clarke Quay before heading down to River Valley for supper. I reached home at 4am...
Rise and shine Sunday at bloody 9am, shacked, but still had to get up. Maybe coz most of us were really tired, thats y the 2nd day at 7's wasnt very happening. We were practically stoning away during the matches.. After the match, i tot i could get some sleep, but in the end, i followed to send my bro back to hall, and by the time we got home, it was almost 1am!
And the best thing was, i had to reach the office b4 8am the next day, so the total sleep for 2 days is ard 10 hours.
All i want now is to have a good long sleep at home..... And now i look like a peeling lobster..
` stenged @ 5:08 PM
I tried resisting, but the temptation is toooo strong! I just had to show the world my new mask, snorkel and fins (coming very very soon)! All of them so prettty, esp the fins, muuuahahhahahaa... Love them to bits...
My frame and silicon color are white, so its much nicer than this blue one...
Change the yellow to pink, and thats my snorkel.. Heheheee.. but yellow nice also ah.
Whoa whoa whoa!! Nice rite this fins!! And its going to be mine, all mine!!! Yum yum yummmmm!!!!

Today i felt like i was at the verge of getting fired, and i never felt so scared and worried before. All this happened because a promised made by a 4th party was not realised at the very last minute. I (although its not my fault but still!!) almost caused my boss from flying to Vietnam to meet a client. Luckily now the problem is settled, if not i sure kena sacked.
Anyways, this problem is over, so i wont think abt it anymore.
Saw on TV Mobile ytd night that channel 5 is showing CHICAGO next wed night. My only movie soundtrack is CHicago's, and i loved it. All the songs are brilliant! Everyone shld watch this movie, very entertaining.
Oh one more thing, this December my frens and i have decided to go Koh Lanta (Thailand) to dive. Any other divers interested to come along?? We need abt 5 to 6 more so that the transport will be cheaper. Why are we deciding on yr end trip so soon? So that we can have more time to save up for the trip and to gather pple! From last year's "experience", start planning late is not possible to save enuf, den last minute will kan chiong , den cannot go in the end. I rather be kiasu than disappointed!
` stenged @ 4:12 PM
i like today, coz time flew past very fast. And its almost time to knock off. YEY! Oh and i slept peacefully last night. Felt good, really good.
` stenged @ 4:42 PM
Is the rainy season supposed to be now now??? I tot its in December.. Hai.. its been pouring for the past few days, and i think im getting sick also. Been caught in the rain on Sunday and Monday, no wonder my nose is running abit and my voice abit croaky. And as if this is not enuf, some of my colleagues fell sick like 2 weeks ago and are still sick. So im really not surprised that im falling sick myself.
But i hope this Sat and Sun wont rain at national stadium ah... Watching rugby game while holding an umbrella is not very fun leh. or anyone kind souls out there wanna sponsor me ponchos?? If you still duunno, im targeting at Priscilla Pan and Seow De Yao/Liu PJ, coz i know you few have alot of ponchos at home!! Hahahaaaa... Wan to clear stock anot?? Sponsor me some ah.... I help you to clear them!
And Ice Age 2 is really a funny movie. Ideal form of relaxation after a long day at work. Just go in and prepare to laugh out loud throughout the show!
` stenged @ 3:01 PM
And yes, i have finally uploaded my photos from 3 months ago. Such a tedious job to do.. Hah..
And i cant believe i had a sleepless night ytd.. I was supposed to be very tired and fall asleep as soon as i hit the sheets. But noooo, my stupid nose have to itch and get blocked suddenly in the middle of the night, then the next thing i know, it was 615am, half an hour b4 my alarm goes off. I really dun recall if i did sleep anot. Maybe played too hard at the zoo ytd with PJ Pris Deyao and Uncle that my mind was still working hard even when im physically gone.
The months of April, May and June will be fun fun fun! First up, Singapore Sevens this weekend at National Stadium!! Tamati my love, we will meet after 1 year of separation!!! aaahahhaaa... After that, diving at Pulau Aur during the Good Friday weekend!!! Aaaaaaaaaaahhhhhh!! Im so excited! So long never breathe compressed air le, missed it alot la! And i bought myself a white mask and pink snorkel!! Hohohohohhhooo.. The mask is soooo pretty, white color, i like... The best thing is, thats a new design, and very few peeps have it! I just like to be different.
Then Im still thinking if i wanna go Vietnam with my grandma and aunt on the 20th April. Supposedly we were to go to NZ on the good friday week, but since i cant go, and NZ being so bloody expensive, my grandma changed route to Vietnam. I really really really wanna go leh, but have to take like 7 to 8 days leave. I dun have enuf leave to last till yr end ahhhh... Damn it.. If only my annual leave is 14 days... arrrgghhhhh!!
And when May comes, I might just be going to KL with the Ruggers over the vesak weekend! Everything is in plan now, and all we need is the pple and everything can be confirm!! Keeping our fingers crossed and hope that most of them can make it for this trip... And then on the first weekend of June, diving again!!! YEYYYYYY!! Looking forward for this trip alot, coz there will be alot of frens coming along! UUuhhoooo... shiok can, just that i will be damn pooooor after all these trips man....
