holla
ha..ni cter bulan 9 haritu... me dgn gigihnya turun ke tioman untuk ambik lesen diving =). Al- kisahnya mcm ni, lesen ni dh lama dh dirancang ngan kwn den...ada 2 kwn actually, satu tu dr secondary dh promise nk ambik gather2, sorg lagi tu kwn university which dia dh ambik a year earlier since ms tu den tgh keje+susah nk apply cuti + budget sgt tight time tu, tats y dia g dulu.
Suu su sek suu sek suuu sek.. terjumpa promotion kt groupon. Harga w/o promosi all in RM1.5k gak la smp, tp since promosi, dapat RM1099 shj for 4D3N! all inclusive except food. menarikkan? dh purchase n deal ngan owner BnJ (took about 2weeks to deal) since kebnykkan date yg me suggest, ada je halanganya *jeling* .. then cnfrm 9 sept to 13 sept 2014 dipilih (extra 1 day sbb 12 sept tu ombak tinggi, jd xde ferry katanya)..layankan aje =))), excited? SANGAT!
Day 1 - 9 Sept 2014 (tuesday)
Me n my friend bertolak pagi dalam jam 630am dari batu pahat menuju ke perlabuhan mersing untuk kejar ferry kul 900am. Sampai2 je kami soru dulu *lapar* . Kat perlabuhan tu ada disediakan parking utk org2 yg nk tinggalkan kereta ke pulau2. Harga fix RM18/night. bayangkan me tinggalkan kete untuk 4 mlm? *urut kepala* RM 18 x 4 nights = $$$$$ . owh yer...harga tiket ferry pergi balik RM 70 and marine fees RM 10.
Parking : RM 18 x 4 nights = RM 72
Ferry (2way) = RM 70
Marine fees = RM 10
Makan kt perlabuhan = nasi lauk + air = RM 8.00
Diving package = RM 1099 (Groupon) inclusive (all diving lessons equiptments and materials, fan rooms for 4D3N)
Fan room price = RM 60/nights (queens bed and a toilet)
p/s : first day dh pokai (_._')

Day 2 - 10 Sept 2014 (wednesday)
yiks..class starts at 8am so we have to get ready as early as 730am at the diving center. Today, my class is in the water *yeay*!! dh smlm di brief how to used the BCD, so today, mmg kluar masuk air je keje... for me, its susah nk biasakan diri dengan BCD and 10kg oxygen tank hanging behind me.. takes time gak la... skali sessions ada la sejam dlm air tu.. lots of skills en.faizal ajar underwater and most of it how to deal if one of the gear get loose or dis-attached from u and how to react with it.
Lepas keluar air, lunch break, afta that masuk blk for another 2-3hours of lessons (underwater and floating). Ingat dh xde kelas afta 2nd sessions, skali sambung theory kelas la pulak ... flat weyhhhhhh kelas end at 6pm .. blk bilik mandi n kuar for dinner. ingat nak lepak tepi pantai, 10 min je ha, nyamuk bnyk la plak..last2 lepak kt diving center since ada wifi kan.. update apa yg patut, kul 10lebih, balik bilik n tido =)))

Day 3 - 11 Sept 2014 (Thursday)
yiks..same time and activities as day 2..penat!!! penat tahu diving ni.. u have to control ur breath while descending especially for a size like mine, my buoyancy is high, therefore i need extra pressure to squezze my lungs in order to get the negative buoyancy ... penat weyh, belum masa nk maintain underwater utk bergerak, pantang lupa nk control pressure lungs, i akan simply naik ke surface...benci! so for me, practice does makes perfect...thats y i need to dive alot to find the correct and suitable way.
Day 4 - 12 Sept 2014 (Friday)
Last class for diving lessons. Our morning starts extra early since ni adalah our first open water dive means... kami akan dive kat tgh2 laut..haaa, sgt menarik!! as usual, me mabuk naik speed boat..xpaham kan? after out open water dive end, our finals exam took place..hehe.. kami lulus dgn jayanya =)))). Thats it.. got the license =)
Im officially an Open Water Diver (^0^)
Day 5 - 13 Sept 2014
Last day at salang beach. really nice short gateway. Makanan senang nk dpt kt sini, no doubt.. tp kena pandai pilih kedai, harga mmg agak mahal compare ngan makanan di darat. skali makan RM10 tak lari la...so make sure to bring enuff budget for food.
Last day kan, apa lagi..bergambar time..wee..
