i'll tell you what you've missed....

i went diving on thursday with my roommates. it was a lot of fun and we had two good dives. but coming up on my second dive was pretty scary. I was only a few meters from the surface and i got really bad vertigo. Everything was spinning around me and i thought i was spinning too and closing my eyes didnt help and i was really worried. Then i looked at my depth gauge and realized i was only a meter from the surface so i popped up and was fine. But it was really scary at the time. What if that were to happen deeper? What if i had students with me at the time? What would i do then? Ride it out? what if the spinning didnt stop? What then?

Saturday and Sunday i worked (yes, i now have a job). I was the deck supervisor, helping divers and snorkelers in and out of the water. it was alright, up until i slipped on the deck and landed on my jaw. somehow i managed not to shed any blood, although my chin hurts like a mother when i touch it even lightly. As a reward they let me take two intro divers out, and i got to put my name on their certificates. Whoo!

today i slept and tomorrow's my dad's birthday. tomorrow i also buy a new phone. for real this time. sigh.
