DiveJunkie Entry#003

well, yesterday was generally..fun.
woke up at 12pm, alone at home. and the first thing i did was cssource.till 4.
then had dinner with abby at taka, cuz we're both alone at home. i got lost in kinokuniya twice while looking for abby. yes, its that bad. i havent been out in ages. A.G.E.S.
wonder aimlessly at the mase of food stalls at basement and finally settled on Modoyaki(p.s. i dont know the name..this was from abby's blog)
then wonder more aimlessly around orchard. i didnt realise till then that orhcard has soooo muchteen twit fashion.
so much that its laughable. she went home after that, and as for me? another friend and i caught the 11pm Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End. again. too bad, we like the indian pirate with the gay voice.
it was during the movie which gave me motivation for a fleeting ambition. i want to own a sailboat. to sail the seven seas. under a diveflag,of course.
i checked out the prices of sailboats in america. seemed affordable and good. though i doubt the prices in singapore would be anything short of mind numbing.
still, i intend to retire early. so till then.........

DIveJunkie Entry #002


lovey dovey moth couple having rear intercourse at discus cage=)

jus remembered something from the tioman trip. the 2nd night dive on saturday evening, at i surfaced, i looked up and had this sick feeling of vertigo. cuz u see, the moon is missing. there are no light sources within 2 miles. the boat lights are switched off. and the sky is fill with countless stars.
this time, the stars are no longer those" hey i can make out that constellation!"
this time the stars make up a dizzying array of shiny spots on a deep dark canvas, spanning your entire vision, making one gasp and gaze in wonder and awe. u have to see it to believe it.
start diving!

DiveJunkie entry#001

just got back from the trip to Pulau Tioman, Salang. I have to say that the trip was absolutely wonderful(at this point of time), cuz firstly, it was a gay long weekend, so we got to go all the far away and interesting dive sites; Magicienne's Rock, Tiger Reef, Chebeh, Sepoy, etc.
secondly, this trip was an escape from the monotonous holiday training and thirdly i knew alot of interesting and unique people from this trip.


Saw alot of things during this trip; moray eels, sting rays, torpedo rays, marble rays(frigging big), bumphead parrot fist(2m??!), great barracuda(2m!?#$), octopus, king fish and DOLPHINS!! yes! though not underwater. we saw schools of dolphins twice in one trip, and that alone is rare enough to make this trip memorable.


Pity i couldnt take underwater pics, cuz i dun have a U/W camera T.T, though i have great land shots=)


Ppl there: Zach,Monica, Jimmy, Daniel, Desiree, Oozie, Jane, Jacq, Choon, Margaret,Jason,Frankie, Me and Dad.
(i really want to go fer a trip on my own, without ma dad, seriously, he spoils the fun)
