Day 40: Compare and Contrast

Vela Luka, Croatia

It was rather weird to not have so many divers. Our morning boat launch only contained 8 guest divers so it was mad easy. By 8:45 in the morning, Storm and I already did our boat launch duties (sorting out the necessary tanks and boat gears, loading them onto the boat, sending off the boat, etc.)

So it’s back to sweeping and mopping the floor. The dive center needed cleaning, badly. We didn’t get to do any of it the past week. After we finished around 11am, Storm and I tried to kill time by learning how to tie different knots using an iPhone app I downloaded. We then did a crash workout until Bobby arrived and had us get back to our work.

I spent the next couple hours scanning paperworks. Maloney would be so proud of me cos I set up some fancy Photoshop actions to automate a bunch of steps and to do batch renders. I literally cut down the time to process things into at least half. It’s a damn boring job but it’s a welcoming change from the usual physically demanding task I had been doing for the past month. I tuned my brain off, relaxed my muscle and hop onto the scanning!

I was scheduled to have the afternoon off and come back at 5pm to do an evening shift until 9pm. I went back to the staff house at 1:30pm, ate lunch and had an afternoon siesta for 2 hours :D Boy, did it feel nice: afternoon nap after lunch!

I think Bobby was quite pleased with the amount of scanning I did in the short period of time, so by 7pm when everybody else finished with their shift at the dive center, he asked me to just close up and leave as well. I happily did that and went with the rest of the staffs to Pizerria Alfa for dinner.

Croatian phrase of the day:

Zavrsio sam = I’m finished
