Hello, i'm back!!! Now darker and having an abdominal ache... puffy eyes and dark eye circles but am ALL GOOD. I had spent 2 nights and days in Pulau Tioman, M'sia.
Diving and having much fun. A very good weekend since the last break in Feb, Chinese New Year.
on friday, i took a half day's leave then we started picking up the open water students and left Sg at appx 1.45pm. It was raining heavily initially. Then it stopped when we approach the hilly roads that lead us to Mersing, the Jetty. 
It was a really good journey. The boys caught up with sleep while i stayed awake to keep Hus company even though i know it's not necessary. Hus was driving rather fast but with the dry ground and his skills, things were comfortable and in good control. But there were alot of dead animals along the way. I'm scared, i think i'm really scared of dead animals and pple.
When we finally got to the jetty, we were 1.5 hrs early. Our boat supposed to come at 5.30pm, so the boys took a short snack break while Hus caught up with sleep.
When the boat finally arrived, we hopped on excitedly...
this is our boat man ->
The boat ride was exciting, the sea was choppy so it kept hitting waves causing an adrenaline rush, i love that feeling. But little did i know, it also send urgent signals to my brain to pee. sshh..
Controlling pee is hardest in a moving speedboat on choppy sea. Then after about an hrs' boat ride, we came to our 1st stop, then 2nd, then 3rd, then 4th... when i thought it our stop, it's NOT... The captain alighted to find relieve, and i thought i also couldn't hold it any longer so I ran to the closest toilet and ran back. The last stop is then ours, but i would advise not try to plan boat schedule...
when we got there, it's already dark.. we've left a bag of goodies on board the boat... there goes my Nachos...
The boys carried their own bags and started walking to Salang Beach Resort, it's a long walk. Lucky for Yaoming and Deroy, the resort's man help them to carry their bag on the wheelbarrel.
I walked with my own bag, a reg bag and hus' bag... but Hus...
a MEGA dive bag containing both our gears. The handles are already giving way... bravo to my very strong Hus who has been working really hard the whole day for the trip.
The driver, the instructor, the commander, the sergeant, the porter, the baby-sitter, the organiser, the payer, the admin in-charge. the EVERYTHING... Love this instructor.
stay tune to my next account, for the progress of the boys... they are very good. kudos to Hus.
