So today is Wednesday and any other Wednesday I wouldn't have class because Wednesday's are put aside for working on our independent research project. But today we had to be up and ready for class by 9 which isnt bad normally, but I havent been sleeping well here because the rooms are like saunas and I have been getting bitten by lots of bugs, so I was exhausted at class today. But, I had a dive breifing then we went to the Yellow Submarine dive shop to get ready for dive number 5 in Bonaire! This dive we learned navigation and buoyancy. We also have to find 5 objects under water of interest and map the area using distance, depth, kick cycles and barings. It is actually really interesting. We came up from our dive got showered off and had lunch. Today I had a chicken ceasar salad.. only Gibi forgot our dressing so I was eatting just like dry lettuce, not the best meal. But not to worry Gibi made up for it at dinner with his Pineapple chicken. Anyways, I had class til 5 on GPS navigation and coral identification. Afterwards, my roomie Rachael, Tom, and I walked to the grocery store to get some food and then stopped at the icecream store on the way back. We sat along the peir eating our icecream then watched the sunset. On our walk back to the house we got a lot of beeps and catcalls. The men on Bonaire like to make kissy noises at girls... apparently they don't mean anything by it but it makes you giggle and feel kind of uncomfortable. Ehh whatever haha. But I must get back to studying my corals now I got 2 big quizzes tomorrow! Can't wait til Friday we planned a Jersey Shore theme party! I can't wait, this has been the most stressful hectic week of my life.

Question. Do they tell you what to do before you dive? Or do your instructors have some method to communicate with you while you're underwater/
