SCUBA 3 months ago

There’s a program at my University that offers training and rental of equipment for a pretty good price. I am going to try to save up for it and then I’ll be on my way to completing this goal. I’m planning on working outdoors, so hopefully this will help me get my desired career… and if not it sure will be a fun hobby!! _

First day of class 5 months ago

Well it started this morning and so far it’s going good. I have a few last minute doubts but I plan on pushing through them.

Living in the Bahamas I figure I owe it to myself. I called the local dive shop yesterday to get some details and see how I can work it around my schedule. For me it should take two weekends.



I'm so excited!!!! 5 months ago

I signed myself and my girlfriend up today for scuba lessons, for the end of July! By mid August we’ll be certified for Open Water Diving. One step closer to living the dream…......



Hmmm... 11 months ago

I think this goal is connected to my goal of travelling to Cambodia. When we’re over there, I really want to learn how to dive. I don’t think that I want to learn it in Norway, the sea is way to dark for my taste, that creeps me out.

I’ve gone diving in Monterey and Hawaii—not a lot of diving. Scuba diving is one of those things that is sort of like extra-terrestrial exploration. It is just different from being in the air, on land or in the sky.

I find it easier and more fun to simply snorkel. Then you can’t run out of air, or go too deep and get nitrogen sick.

Diving s one of the most rewarding things that I have ever done. I started diving when I was 15 and have been diving every since. Get quality training and keep your skills current.

Dive, dive, dive, dive, dive, dive, dive, dive, dive, dive, dive, dive, dive, dive, dive, dive, dive, dive, dive, dive, dive, dive, dive, dive, dive, dive, dive, dive, dive, dive, dive, dive, dive!

Really worth doing! 3 years ago

On my “life goal” list, got certified open water. It’s not scary, it’s one of the best things I’ve ever done. As soon as you are under the water, all the commotion on the surface ceases, and you are in a new world. Got to swim around some sea turtles – go do it!
