Dayang Dive Trip

 
My only Overseas trip this holiday - Dayang malaysia. Initially it was a choice between Dayang and Sibu. After a considerable amount of reserch online. We decided on Dayang.
The whole trip was overall fun and good.
However there were some not so enjoyable experiences
The Downs
1) On the day of departure. The time to meet was 530pm. It was like a mad rush. rushing to meet ben at vivo than cabbing down to the dive office. 
Why do we have to meet so early? Cause we need to beat the low tide at Mersing!.
In the end all 4 of us divers plus the driver  (Uncle Sam aka Initial D, F1 racer) had to wait for our dive master - Dom (he is a real cool guy la)
to arrive.
We only finally set off to woodlands check point at 615pm.
Uncle Sam sped to mersing jetty in 3 hours. He was seriously good. Zipping and overtaking. You will only know how good he is,when u take a ride yourself. Haha
when we reached Mersing jetty they transported us to the main big travelling boats via small boats. I was like WTH. if they were doing this in the first place than why do we need to meet so early.
Seriously.
It was in this boat "Princess" our waiting boat, that my CASH
got stolen and my HP nearly got stolen.
The whole gang decided to chill out on the upper deck since it was more windy. Before i left for the upper deck i packed my stuff together. Minor OCD i have.. ha.. After an hour of chitchat i decided to remove my contact lens. When i went down to the bed compartment. I found that my bags were not in place. When i checked for my HP it was bloody hell Knn CB lost. I was searching for it frantically. The rest were rounded up by me to help in the search. The thought of having to replace a new phone the hassle and stuff was plain depressing. I fully shut down my phone hence i thought there would be no hope locating my phone already. Ben decided to try calling my phone anyway.
My phone RANG. !!!!
WTH
 I was excited.
We followed the music to a  paper cardboard box.
TADAH
My phone was inside. The thief apparently findled with the phone and turned it back on again. I guess i got to thank him in a way. If he had not turned my HP back on,it would already be his.
I am just glad my HP was found. My cash can't be found though.
But i guess it was an expensive lesson for me, learning to keep my personal belongings by myside always
2) I hit my head like 3 times in the trip.. PEriod!
3) My freakng NUM slippers snapped on me at WOODLANDS checkpoint on our way back. I walked barefooted all the way back into our van.
 i will nv wanna experience that again.

The Ups
The good company of frenz. The beautiful things i saw underwater made up for my down moments. Enough of talk. i shall show you guys and gals my happy moments from the trip.
