I have quite a bit of studying to do (it involves books), some tests to take, and a five hour video to watch. My actual class days are September 10th, 11th, 17th, and 18th. I'll undergo lots of classtime, six confined (pool) dives, and one open water dive. After this, I'll be a certified diver.
Woo!
It's quite fun, I got certified at the age of 15 in Bon-aire, a small island... (nearly got taken to a different one)
And it was very enjoyable.
Have fun, bones.
(and don't go building any titanics. scuba instructers hate titanics.)
