This weekend is a four day weekend for the medical students because of Grenadian Thanksgiving. I have no idea why the poor vet students didn't get any time off. But I took advantage of the time off and scheduled my final scuba dive for Friday afternoon. It was a wreck dive, so I got to swim in and out of the ship which was very cool. There were also several large schools of fish hovering around the wreck so it was a cool feeling to drop down into the middle of them. Since it was my last dive, I'm now certified for open water diving, and I can technically do it by myself if I wanted. Although diving with the dive center is probably my preferred method because they take care of everything for us. Our instructor brought an underwater camera this time, so included is a picture of yours truly doing my best scuba pose for the camera while we were hovering under the surface doing a safety stop to let some nitrogen work its way out of our systems. I'll probably do another dive this semester with some of the vet students, and possibly get my deep water certification next semester. But, it's been tiring cramming all the lessons into 2 weeks, so I'm glad to have a little break. This weekend was originally supposed to be a trip to a nearby island for a little relaxing, but the plans fell apart. I'm actually relieved because I'd rather just spend the weekend either studying or laying in bed. Neither of these things cost any money either. I hope to see you all soon, and check out the new holiday poll.
