Busy busy busy

This past week has been quite busy, which is the big reason for not having posted here in a while. I do however, have some more good pictures.

Earlier this week (Sunday) I completed my SCUBA certification, I am now a certified open water recreational diver. I'm trained to go up to 30m deep, any more than that and they recommend taking extra courses because of the extra difficulties that come with that kind of depth.

This is the dive site where I had my final dive before being certified. It was pretty interesting jumping off the cliff (on the left) into the water, and then to get back you had to wait for a big wave to pick you up and literally drop on a protruding rock (on the right)



This is a picture of my certification card that enables me to rent equipment and book dives. Not a great picture, but it was after a day of diving and my face hurt. The card is on my very official DiveLog, where I keep track of my dives, equipment rented, etc so I always have my most current info at hand.


This is a picture of lunch I had a few days ago, something I felt looked really cool and deserved a picture for sure. Its basically a pasta with garlic chicken and tomato sauce, with some cheese and water.


As for Wednesday's picture, I thought the view from my window would work best, especially considering someone put up a Canadian flag outside their door. They may have taken down since then, it rained a bit today.


And finally, and most recently, this is a picture from when I was preparing to study for Macroeconomics. I had a lemonade, plus I found a really nice spot in the quad to sit on a mini-wall of sorts and read, while I could overlook the big tree.


I don't know if that's a picture a day, I have more on my computer though. I'll try and be better about it, tomorrow I plan to go to the Sydney Fish Market really early in the morning (straight after crew practice) to get some of the top of the catch, plus hopefully it won't be too busy.
