World thru DoryFishie’s Eyes

My Best Dayang Trip EVER (18~20 July 08)

30
Jan

This has gotta be my Best Dayang Trip so far, with quite a few things to see (considering the fact that I had never dived as a leisure diver at Dayang before and my eyes were always on my divers most of the time when I’m underwater. Was taking only 2 students on Advanced Open Water Course and 2 leisure divers this time.

1^st Dive : Pulau Lang

Saw 4 HUGE Bumpheads wondering around at close distance, a Moray Eel, a little Lionfish.

2^nd Dive : Kadur

Saw lots of nice Black, Green Stripes with Orange skirts Nudibranches and a sizeable Lionfish.

3^rd Dive : Crocodile Rock

I saw NOTHING!!!! And felt cold and lots of sea bugs!!!

4^th Dive : Aur Jetty (Night Dive)

Lots to see!! 2 baby Scorpion Fish, Countless of big and small Flatworms, 2 Huge Decorator Crabs, CuttleFish (my students couldn’t recognize it despite me pointing it to them for a while minute), a light color Moray Eel in the open, lots of Shrimps and Crabs!!

5^th Dive : Rayner’s Rock

Didn’t see anything special, but there were schools of fishes around. My leisure divers saw a school of Barracudas while doing their safety stop 3 minutes after mine.

6^th Dive : Captain’s Point (The dive of the trip!!) There was a slight drift at Captain’s Point and I decided to follow it since my students were doing their Drift Adventure Dive anyway. Saw 2 huge never ending schools of fish marching towards our direction from Rayner’s Rock’s side, against the current around the edge of the reef meeting the sandy bottom. That continued for more than 30 minutes!! Amazing!! Saw a Moray Eel and a little school of 3 Bumpheads consisting of Papa, Mama & Baby. Saw a Big Fat Black Tip Shark from between the big boulders at around 10m. The fellow was fast!!! it swam away within split seconds. By the time I swam round the boulder to follow, it had already disappeared into the open. My divers didn’t even got the chance to see it. Then there was this huge Octopus flashing from coral texture to angry purple to reddish brown, to warn me off as my legs were too near it. That was lucky!!! I wouldn’t have seen it at all if it didn’t warn me. However, it was so scatty-cat and shy that it quickly moved and hid itself into the crevice under the coral. Then Perry’s wife pointed out a baby yellow Boxfish and there was a huge Porcupine Puffer hanging around near the end of the dive.

Well, after months and months of non-happening dives at our usual training dive sites at Dayang, I finally got a taste of the little sweet surprises, all in a single trip!! Too bad no camera….

Some Inconsiderate Beings on the Bus

26
Jan

Caught a bus to work this morning. The bus was super crowded and the bus driver had to yell at people to squeeze to the back. However, there was a bottle neck of people flowing to the back of the bus right in front of me. This guy was leaning on the rail beside the door and spreading out this newspaper and reading, not caring to allow people to move through and not bothering to move in himself because he doesn’t wanna forgo the comfort of leaning on that rail. ASSHOLE!!! It was just so irresistible for me to give him a few angry stares whenever I happened to look up and see him, just made my blood boil!!

Introducing Timmy

26
Jan

He is actually the Meh’s dog. He’s Pomchi and he’s twelve years old as of now. I first met him about two years go. He was warm and friendly to me since Day 1. Very Sweet, very quiet, hardly a bark, but super grumpy when you disturb him while he’s eating. He begs for treats the 1st thing I get home. Our friendship grew rocket fast. He’s pretty much always by my side whenever I’m home now. I love him as much as I would love my child. However, age is catching up with him. For a twelve year old dog, he is REALLY OLD!!! Just 3 days ago, I realised he couldn’t recognise me from far and he couldn’t smell me from a foot away. He could only recognise me at 20 meters and he could only confirm that it’s me by smelling me at 1cm from my leg!!

I come recognise this as signs of his body starting to ‘malfunction’ and I need to come to terms that one day he’s gonna die of old age. This is freaking me out!!!

Last Dayang Trip for the Season of 2008 (15~16 Nov 08)

16
Jan

This is the last Dayang Trip of the Season of 2008. It is also Orpheus’ Crew Trip.

It was raining on and off on Saturday, water was choppy everytime we ascent from a dive, although it was always calm when we entered the water, Vis was bad, strong drift at some sites, we didn’t get to see any WhaleShark or Manta (which we were badly hoping to), nevertheless, the dives were not bad!! Saw quite a lot of stuff, that’s the big difference between going on a leisure trip and going up as crew.

Below are the pictures taken from the very 1st dive at the backside of Lang.

No more pictures for the rest of the dives because too lazy to bring camera…..

Bye Dayang, for a while, I wanna come back again next season!!!

Back to Traditional Chinese Medicine

02
Jan

Been having hives for about half a year and had been surviving on the ‘Western’ Anti-Histamine which worked perfectly well. However, Anti-Histamine is only a temporary solution, it 治标不治本. The hives goes away everytime I take it, but it keeps coming back and so I need to ingest the medication regularly. I needed a permanent solution, so I went to the TCM to get my body ‘tuned’ back. The doctor gave me a couple of days of medicine to brew.

Ingredients : Errrm…. unknown…. nothing which I recognise…

Brewing Procedure (to use only ceramic, clay or high-grade stainless steel pot, no aluminium pot) :

- Soak Packet I in water for 30 minutes with water covering an inch higher than the solids

- Start boiling the soaked contents (including water) and bring it to a vigorous boil

- Bring fire down to gentle boiling level and brew for 30 minutes

- Throw in Packet II and continue to brew for another 15 minutes before turning fire off, water should be reduced to only half to a full bowl.

This is the first time I brew medicine on my own. Wah… the house really stinks after for about 20 minutes!!!! Terrible to smell and lagi terrible to drink!!! I take almost 20 minutes to finish off the bowl of horrid stuff everytime!!! And the thing makes me lao sai!!!! Because doctor says it’s meant for 排毒….. The effect of the medicine took out all the anti-histamine from my body as well, so by the 3rd day, my body was again plagued with hives, which is in an even more serious form this time. My head, neck, body, limbs, all thickly covered and swollen with hives. When one batch subsides, it’ll be replaced by a new batch at other areas…. I managed to tahan for another 24 hours before I could take it no longer because my tongue started to swell too…. I popped down 2 Anti-Histamine. All swells went down within an hour and a half. I’m not giving up on Chinese Medicine just because of this. I understand that the doctor needs more time and trials to investigate on the cause. What took the western medicine doctors one and half year (I had this more than 10 years ago for about a year before it mysteriously went away on its own) to find out and never succeeded, I dun expect the TCM doctor to know the answer in two visits. I shall continue to brew and take the medicine everyday until my next visit to him this coming Friday evening. Hopefully, the hives will be less next time round. =)

Brewing in Progress….

The end product…. Looks kinda more appetizing from this photo somehow….

Washing Slippers with TOOTHBRUSH…

31
Dec

Lester’s greatest prophecy has great protential to come true…The Meh found her slippers dirty and wanted to wash them. I told her to shun4 bian4 wash mine too. She brought the 3 pairs of shoes to the toilet while I was brewing my medicine. First I heard water splashing out from the shower head, OK, that’s normal. Then I heard the very faint sound of a brush, errmmm, wait a minute, the sound of the brush seems to come from a really tiny brush… I hoped over to the toilet to take a look and guess what I saw…. you’re right, the Meh was brushing the slippers with a TOOTHBRUSH!!!! If it’s a normal size brush, it’s normal, but…. toothbrush???!!!!

Lester had prophesied earlier that she’s gonna use a toothbrush to wash her diving equipment. So far, she has not, but since she has already started doing it on her slippers, I guess the prophecy is not too far away from coming true….

Krabi (20~24 Dec ‘07)

26
Dec

There were 2 public holidays on Hari Raya Haji (20th Dec, Thurs) and Christmas (25th Dec, Tues) which were 4 days apart and given the 2 days of weekend, the Meh and I decided to take another 2 days leave so that we could spend 6 days of holidays somewhere out of Singapore!!

We decided on Krabi as we wanted this to be more of a relaxed and nua trip and not a solely diving trip and air tickets there were pretty cheap. In the end, BAD CHOICE, because other than the nice local Thai food around, the enjoyable day of diving and reasonable accomodation to let us nua at our best, Krabi was HOT HOT HOT and we didn’t really enjoy the trips to the beaches, which are a disappointment. The Meh claimed that the beaches there was fine white sand a year and a half ago, but now, they were all covered with broken corals and shells, it was difficult to walk barefooted, which makes me miss the really fine white sand on P. Dayang!!! And one last thing, dun know whether we were suay or what, all the non-local food there (which is also more expensive) which we had tried, were all not nice. I guess we must be very jian4, only fated to eat cheap local food….

Our nice suite accomodation is at the Guest House, Baan Taveesri. It has a nice hard bed, TV, Sofa and a huge bathroom great for drying our dive gears and clothes… hehehe…. The guesthouse was located at the Leela Valley (the locals pronounced it as ‘Leela Va-Lay’), Eastern side of Ao Nang, with a nice view facing a cliff. There were lots of strays and resident dogs staying there and there were 10 newly born puppies outside the area office with their mothers. Very cute, lively and greedy!! Then there was a grey dirty color little doggie who lives at the restaurant next door, he looks like half a poodle with mixed with a coconut husk brush???!!!! =)) LOL… and he has a patch of bald dry skin covered with some green powder on his back…. Yecks!!!!

We went diving on the 2nd day. Vis was good. There was a current which we had to fight against, but the first 2 dives were great!!!

1st Dive :

Saw turtle, scorpionfish, lionfish, Octopus

2nd Dive : Went into a limestone cave with air pockets at the top, it was quite bright inside, from the reflection of the sunlight outside by the water. Saw Trumpet fish, Lionfish, Huge Puffers, Mantis Shrimp

3rd Dive : A dive site which even our DM had never been before. We just wanted to be adventurous and try out somewhere not knowing what to expect. It was dirty and we even found a dead fish, bottom parked with urchins and rubbish. Saw lionfish, Puffers and Boxfish.

Went to the different beaches and kayaking around the Hong Islands on the 3rd day. Kayaking was too fast and tiring for us. There was not enough time to appreciate the scenery around. But I must say the cliff and limestone structures around Krabi is quite nice. Too bad the beaches were horrid and the reefs around meant for snorkelling seemed quite lifeless, except for a school of rainbow runners at one of the sites.

Went to Railey Beach on the 4th day. Again, we were dissappointed by the condition of the beach, although it was much better than the ones on the previous day. The sun was scotching hot and the beach overcrowded with people. We were rolling ourselves on the sand but was forced out of our place once because we were parking ourselves too near the volleyball net and people wanted to play. The Meh sensed my discomfort of the heat and sun and suggested to leave earlier than expected, much to my relief.

Got back to Ao Nang and was walking along the beach front row of shop when we notice this black doggie belonging to one of the shop… He never fail to turn himself onto his back every few minutes and stays in that position for another few minutes before turning back his belly facedown position…. So cute!!! Had dinner at a Thai Restuarant along the main street of Ao Nang that night. The comforting light from the sunset felt relaxing. We had an early dinner there before heading off to a backstreet pub to watch the Barclays Premier League, Man-U against Everton. I ordered Ice coffee and the Meh ordered Mai Tai. I dun know how the Mai Tai tasted, but my Ice coffee was quite good. BIG somemore… hehe… lasted me my whole 2 hours there….

The last day was a day where we had to find things to do within Ao Nang itself because we had already checked out of the guesthouse and thus, we couldn’t bath so we couldn’t do anything adventurous that day (not that we did anything adventurous). In the end, we walked around eating from local Thai roadside stall for lunch, then went into Swensons to escape the afternoon heat. Swensons there only serves icecreams, no solid food. I have to say although the icecream there is a bit cheaper than in Singapore and has basically the same ‘dish names’, the Singapore ones are definitely more substantial in terms of ingredients and toppings and have more satisfying factor.

We were unable to locate a satisfactory place for dinner after that, so went back to the restaurant next to our guesthouse for dinner. The taxi which we had booked for the airport and on time. Reached airport at 7pm, waiting for more than 2.5 hrs for the flight, reached Singapore half an hours past mid-night, went for supper at Burger King and managed to get home at 2 plus, with the cab fare amounting to S$35.40, giving airport charge, midnight charge, holiday charge…..
