As people out there might know , i'm already an advanced diver and the way it stands now is what's next ? Do i really really want to learn how to be a rescue diver and a divemaster subsequently ? While vanessa might say that i'm a quite a good diver , i beg to differ . If you ask me at this moment right now , if u ask what is decompression sickness , i doubt i can give you the correct answer . Haha .. and i din attend a "Just do it" course . Don't even get me started on the dive table . It just looks like the periodic table in my horrid chemistry class both of which i don't understand anymore .
I first signed up for an open water course because i've always been interested in marine life and all the watching of earth vision when i young made me want to become a marine biologist . Well , things in my current life have totally deviated from that course and i took a pure arts combination in JC and i'm going on to take a degree in the area of social science . Diving is the closest thing towards that dream . But right now , when the opportunity to do what i always wanted to do is served up in front of my face , i'm having second thoughts about it . i think i need more time to establish on what already know .
I think it's a case of cold feet or cold fins in this case .
Anyway , touching on the subject on marine life . I've signed up with the world wildlife fund to become an online activist . The programme is called P@ssport . It is quite a cool programme and it's definitely an internationally recognised cause worth supporting. Do check the site out and if you are into the cause, do sign up . While it's not a radical march on the streets shouting "save the whales ! " , very little bit would help . It also sort of work both ways , because it provides me an opportunity to learn more about the nature and at the same time , help to save it . I guess on some level , it helps to hon my writing skills . Just in case i end up as magazine writer for national geographic . ( okay , now i'm just dreaming .. haha )
No marine biologist can be marine conservationist right ?? .. Hehe ..
