Scuba-doo!


Sabi ko sa sarili ko last year, I need to get out of my comfort zone. And I finally did. The feeling was so happy. Last March 20, I had another great adventure in my life. That was the time I tried scuba diving in Anilao Batangas. I was with my GFI family that time. Akala ko when we went there we will just talk about purely business pero hindi pala, more than anything they gave us an overview of how our life will be pag sineryoso namin yung business. It is Multi-level Networking Marketing. Siguro sa iba may negative impression because they don't really know what's within that business but for me it is indeed one the best source of extra income. I was also with Team Evolution, ang grupong hawak ni Upline Ken Go. Kaboom! Kaboom!

Sa una I was afraid to try scuba diving cause I don't know how to swim. Another reason is I had this big fear in water. The feeling was scary and weird. I was the third to the last person to try it and mejo nervous talaga ko. The gadgets like the oxygen, goggles and the entire swimming attire, parang ang hirap dalin cause even the oxygen ang bigat. Then the trainor taught me how to breathe using my mouth and not my nose. I was like how can I do it. Lucky, I've learned it easily. Thumbs-up for me! Then next is to "equalize" which is the part wherein everyone had difficulty of doing so. Kailangan mo i-press ung nose mo if you feel like nabibingi ka na. Good thing I was able to get the instruction naman. The time came na kailangan na namin bumaba sa ilalim ng tubig, I was a bit excited and naicip ko wala namang mawawala kung hindi ko ita-try. Underwater, super kakaiba ung pakiramdam. The sceneries sa ilalim ng tubig ay sobrang ganda. I can't find a word to describe what I saw under the ocean. The colorful fishes, corals, sea creatures and even the "Balai rock", totally beautiful. I even walked pa and try to touch the little "Nemo's" there. I almost forgot my fear. Napalitan ng happy feeling because of what I saw down there. Too lucky again hindi ako nagkaproblema underwater, finally I've learned to breathe using my mouth. Cool! Ang bilis ng oras na hindi ko namalayan I was underwater na pala for over 30 minutes. Pagkatapos ng underwater adventure ko sobrang bitin that I wanted to repeat the same thing again. Hindi ko talaga ma-explain yung feeling. I felt freedom. Hanggang gabi, I was stucked with the experience. Parang hindi ako makamove-on sa wonderful experience na yun. Something I will never forget for the rest of my life. A truly unique adventure.

Aside from the scuba diving experience, I've met a lot of friends as well. I was able to get along with the other group, share my story and learn from their own experiences. New friends, new faces, new learning's about life, a terrific adventure and a more improved "Me", that is what I get from this great experience.

Swim..swim..equalize...equalize..
