Last few days in Ko phi phi

I haven't wrote in a while because i have been busy diving. 3 days ago i started with my confined water dive just off the beach. We didnt go any deeper than about 12 feet. There i learned alot of different skills needed for when you are diving. You can get into some pretty dangerous situations down there and if you dont know how to handle them you could really injure yourself. The first day i had a hard time with clearing water outta my mask while underwater. So much trouble that i was even thinking that i wouldnt be able to finish the course. What i would do is panick and swim top the top to fix it. What my instructor told me is that i have air flowing through my mouth so there is no need to go to the top. Eventually at the end i felt completly comfortable (today i cleared my mask at 60 feet) After and before the confined water i had to do some class room work. With the dives and the class room work it takes up about 7 hours of the day. The next day i was supposed to do 2 dives, one just as a fun dive where we dont practice any skills, we just swim around, then we come up for an hour, have lunch then go back into the water and practice skills (that day it was at 36 feet below) I got motion sickness after the first dive when i was on the boat and i have heard of ppl who have puked at 30 feet into their regulators so i didnt take a chance. So i ll just make it up tomorrow and do an extra dive while im out there too. Today i did 2 dives and my deepest depth was 60 fee below surface, it was great! I've seen soooooo many sweet things down there. Haven't seen a shark or a turtle yet so im kinda choked about that. The sharks out here are not aggresive and do not bite. There are some here that are 18 meters long! Today was a great dive tho i feel very comfortable. The main thing to master in diving is buoyancy (hovering by using your breathing tecnique) When your lungs fill with air you will float up, when you expell the air you will float down. If you do it at the right pace you would pretty much stay at the same level. After tomorrow first dive i will be a certified open water diver. Which means i could have someone drive me out anywhere in water and dive to a maximum of 18 meters with a partner who is also certified. The only downside to the diving is that its at 8 am in the morning so i cant go out and party too hard. On the other hand swiming is a great hangover cure, i kinda found that out today. Tomorrow will be my last day on this island, im kinda sad to leave it, i really like it here. But its pretty small and i've pretty much seen everything. I spend a day or 2 in a place call railay beach, its supposed to be pretty nice. Then i head to the boarder of malaysia to get my passport stamped then up to the islands of Ko tao ko samui and koh pen yan. For the last few days of ko phi phi i decided to stay in a good room, i have a fan, a small fridge (very key) a tv, a safe, and a hot water shower which is kinda nice to have every once in a while. Normally its straight up cold water showers, lol. Last night i met up with the guys from calgary and we went to an irish pub, then i went to a beach party but came back to the pub, there was acontest there for girls that was pretty sweet, the winner won 1500 bhat which is like $45 lol. 2 girls both won so they split it. It was a pretty sweet contest, lol. We made friends with one of the girls from the contest and her friends so then we went to a raegae bar. They have a muy thai boxing ring there with equipmet if you wanna fight your friend. If you do it you get a free bucket. 2 of the girls got in the ring and it was pretty sweet. We ended the night at the beach party, it was fun, i wish i coudl have stayed til the end (5 am) but i went home at 3 because i had to dive. I'm gonna go get some lunch, pretty hungry from the dive. Talk to ya later!
