Almost

Ok so I am ALMOST completely certified. I have finished all of the book work, passed the final exam, and finished all of the skills in the pool. We went on our first beach dive and guess what, I didn't die. I am so happy! I did NOT sleep at all the night before the dive and was so sick to my stomach. Walking into those waves was so scary, I wanted to back out. When I had a wave knock me over with all of my gear on I was ready to cry and run back to the car! haha but once we got out there I was totally fine. It was the coolest experience ever! I am so glad that I did it and can't wait to do it again. We have 3 more dives to do (at Catalina) but aren't going to be able to do it this week because of bad weather. So we are going to have to make another trip to CA to finish it up and then I will be a certified scuba diver! Yay!

This is probably the most embarrassing picture I have ever posted of myself but I am feeling too proud to care too much. Now, I am not the skinniest person ever, but please keep in mind that we are each wearing two lumpy wet suits! (or thats my excuse anyways) haha Whitney looks good of course!
