Whats so good bout scuba diving?

yes~ whats so good about it?
im pretty sure that those who havent experience scuba diving would question that.
i myself am a noob in scuba diving~
very coincidentally i stumble upon this sport from a friend of mine.
i myself was asking the exact question~
i know what it is but... what so good bout it?
as i am curious bout it myself, i took this chance to go for the license without thinking much.
(except for the price problem erhem~)

there i was... learning how 2 gear up, walk for the shore dive...
and i can honestly tell u... i didnt like it.
at first~ of cos~ xD
now im looking forward to more dives~
why?

1. its a relaxing (extreme) sport
sounds contradicting rite? xD but to me its pretty much like that.
relaxing~
for a person who lives in the city (hectic/active lifestyle),
scuba diving is total opposite.
in scuba diving,
instructor often would teach their students to move slowly underwater.
at the same time, its extreme~
cos it gives u the adrenaline rush just like any sport.
its like going on a brand new trip every dive~

2. physically n mentally
physically~
learning how to breathe efficiently (slow n steadily),
is very important to prolong the dive.
which i believe many health class such as yoga,
would teach on breathing techniques.
while exercising our lungs muscles,
carrying the tank around is no joke too.
whereas underwater, our leg muscles would be most important.
thus, exercising! underwater!
without knowing too cos u would b busy exploring~
mentally~
it could help u forget everything u are troubling on n live the moment~
de-stress!

(there is still so many... but i'll just name them out)
3. new skill + new job opportunity
if u really love it, it could b your dream job~

4. knowing more people around the world
its a great opportunity to get to know more people.
also to build up teamwork,
care and awareness as every1 have to dive in pairs.

5. environmental awareness
yes~ u c it b4 in Nat Geo... but it feels different when u r actually there.
u'll get to see how wonderful marine life is and interact with them.
its different from seeing lions n tigers in the savanna or forest.

6. its as close to space as anyone can get
simply weightless~ or i can say... as close to flying as one can get? xD

something to update my blog~
^^ thanks for reading~
