It's sunday afternoon & Myself, Fairus & Bro & his buddy Amelio are very excited for our confine space -Pool dive.

I recall my first 10mins was crazy! Hahahaha

Having to depend air only  from the the tank, then must remember the sign language, then trying very hard to remember what the Master just tell you what to do.

First thing I learned is that, I must not stop breathing! I should inhale & exhale just like onland. This takes me a while to adjust .

Next is I need to understand the right technique on how to drain out the water when it gets on to your mask underwater. Pretty though at first,  at the first try, i breathe in water thru my nose! *yikkesss*

I could'nt  get it right , so to avoid stopping the lesson waiting for me, another Master join in my class to give me a personal coaching where the boys carry on the next chapter . 

Here I received a 1 to 1 personal coaching..Tengah-tengah concentrate ni.... sempat lah jugak ter-senyum sipu pong ader..*Master ni cute ar* dalam hati ... Back to my lesson, ehhemmm..

This is time where, my attempt to show off Master the technique of drainning water from my mask till I got it right. cey cey cey.....

We move on to the next chapter, there in the deep water of the pool, Master & Me. No, wild ideas...hehehehe. We move on to the techniques of sharing the air, removing the BCD, removing weights and putting back all these underwater. Then also learning the technique of staying off the seabed (ground) . The technique of hoovering is important. It's very important to stay off the seabed so that not to destroy the Corals that took millons years to grow. 

Lastly we swim around the deep pool to learn the technique to stay boyance .

Thanks a million to Ayu for being my underwater photographer.
