6 perfect dives

Best way to ring in the new year ever. Seriously.

The trip to Semporna, Sabah was awesome like you wouldn't believe. Like I kept telling GNN, it's a whole new level of happiness. It was 2 days of diving 6 absolutely perfect dives. Great visibility, fish everywhere.

Highlights:

1. I became an advanced open water diver.
2. I high-fived a turtle that was swimming by.
3. Anini went missing for 2 minutes and gave me a panic attack underwater.
4. I back-rolled off the boat into the water only to find that I'd forgotten to turn on the gas tank.
5. Whoren wanted to flash the local boys.
6. Bunty playing make-believe that her golden sword was her Golden Sword.
7. Whoren doing somersaults in the water.
8. We went into an underwater cave.
9. We saw sharks.
10. We spent all our time hanging off the side of the boat.
11. I had the hots for a cowboy.
12. Bunty got harassed by some souldjah boys.
13. We got harassed by some Saga boys.

I know I said this about Pai as well, but this time it's not a backup plan. It really is what I think I want to do. I'm so serious about this that I've been working out the kinks in my head, namely how long I'd have to stay in banking before I can leave but still be secure in knowing that I'm experienced enough to get a job if it doesn't work out, or how I'm gonna pull it off if (much) later on, I decide to settle down and have kids.

Incidently, I'm so efficient that I've completed a 2008 resolution in 2007. New resolution for 2008: Get as close to being a Dive Master as I can.
