It's been a while since i have blogged. I guess i just have been adjusting a bit too well to the rather lazy and relaxed lifestyle at Koh Tao - and I have enjoyed every bloody second of it... So, what have happened since last time... Not much really. There is still sunny, and i am still diving. The sharks r still around, and the triggerfish r still a pain in the bum. Have been assisting the instructors a bit lately, which has been really good, and learnt me alot as well. Been working on my tanlines, and am quite happy about the ones I am having now, even though it seems to be quite hard to get rid of the tanlines from the wetsuit...

Am at Ranong again at the moment. Time for another one of those annoying visaruns... The last one wasn't so bad, but this one is very boring, and I can't wait untill I am done with it and back at koh tao.

So, I am back at Koh Tao again. Came back on the moring of the 31st of dec. Just in time for a couple of hours of sleep bf the big night started. It was grand!! Had lots of fun, and everyone became very... ehr happy after a while. Made friend with a british girl that night. U know, it's 4am and you have had a few drink too many u can't account for, and u end up next to this person, and somehow u jump straight from "hi, my name is..." to "we will be best friends for ever!!!". Funny tho.

On the second we had another snorkletest for four DMT's here. A snorkeltest is basically the last test u have to pass bf u can be signed off as a DM. It includes a bar, the DMT ready to be signed off, a snorkel, a mask, lots of towels, sometimes other accessories such as body paint, bikini, fins etc, and a bucket of alcohol. You take the DMT in question, place them on a bar chair (after the nessecary accessories have been applied), put on them mask and snorkel, and pour the bucket into the snorkel. The audience have breat fun watching it, and the DMT get one night of free piss. And trust me, if u r sober after ur snorkeltest u didn't really try.

The visbility here ahs improved radically the last week. Now it's like floating around in mid air, which is such an amazing feeling. Went diving with 6 other DMT's the other day, which ended up as a rather unserious and fun event. There is a lot of diving humour going around here, which I am not gonna share w the rest of u, as it will probably just bore u crazy.
