Back to school, back to school.

October 8, 2012 by Rika Leave a Comment

As you all learned yesterday, I’m now a divemaster and already slugging away at my dive instructor course. I’m almost done! AHHHH! On October 18 I will be an instructor. Woah.


Wondering what I’ve been up to lately?


The Wifey and I have had a bit of a change in the roommate situation… we now have four more people living here! It’s definitely a full house. We have a lot of fun (re: we drink a lot of what we’ve christened “blackout 151 rum”). We have two American guys, another British girl and a French guy. United Nations at la casa, for real. They just found out about this blog, and one of the American guys was mad that he hasn’t had a shout out on here. I mentioned that I don’t really use anyone else’s name on here, so I will refer to him on here as we do in our house… so hi fag #2!! Shit gets a little ridiculous around here now with all these people but we all love each other and it’s fun for the most part.


We had a big family day out to an insane rope swing over the ocean…



Before the instructor course started, I did a ton of diving and hit 100 dives last week!



Felt a little homesick and missed a wedding that I really, really wanted to be at.



And started the IDC with this group of people:



It’s going to be an intense next 10 days and I might not be around much, but in less than two weeks the culmination of this whole cubicle throwdown will happen, and I’ll be a dive instructor living in the Bay Islands. And basically that is going to be fucking awesome.
