Diving is actually a hobby and everyone can go for dive.For those who interested in diving,there are few regulations that you need to fulfill before you go diving.Diver Alert Network (DAN) regulation state that minimum age for diving is 9 years old.To become a diver,there`s a few things that you need to follow such as,

-Diving Licensed
-Wet Suit and Scuba Equipment
-Some guts



Diving Licensed ( for leisure dive,you need to have Open Water Diver licensed at least)


PADI Open Water Certificate

With a certified licensed,you`re qualified to dive.To be a qualified diver,you need to take the PADI Open Water Diver Courses,which cost you around RM 900(PADI is the well known certified body for diving license and recognized all over the world) .There are many level of certificate,but the most basics is the Open Water Certificate and with this certificate it allows you to go on a leisure dive.( maximum depth for Open Water Certificate is 18M )

PADI courses


Wet Suit and Scuba Equipment

Scuba equipment

Scuba Equipment such as mask,fins and booties,regulator,BCD (Bouyancy Control Device),and tank is provided when you are student diver until you finished your courses.After you`re been certified as diver,you need to have all these equipment by yourself( if you can afford to buy all of these equipment in the same time,dive shop provide a rent for this equipment.But it`s better and recommended for you to have your own scuba equipment)


Some guts ( just a little is enough )

Actually it`s the way how you tackle your fear underwater.We stereotype underwater as a dangerous places such as man eating sharks,harmful creature,and many other bad things.But in fact,we are more dangerous to them.We pollute the sea by drain the industrial waste to the sea killing the coral and the creature,hunting sharks for the fins,and for your information,more than 1000 sharks had been killed last year for the need of human appetite(Shark Fin Soup).So,who is more dangerous and harmful?think again.

For you out there who is environment lovers,diving is the way of you to see the magnificent underwater world that created by god and i guaranteed that you`ll never regret it once you go down there.It will teach you to value the nature and in the same time to keep it natural.

Deep in the water,diver communicate using sign language and that sign is really important because it indicates all the orders,express how you feel,and even if you have trouble.So to being able to communicate with others and divemaster,learning diver sign language is compulsory.

But to be honest,this activities quite hazardous and a safety is the most important things to be taken care of.For those who is not disciplined and not taking care of safety would be in a deep trouble such as narcosis (been black-out underwater,fainted),and even worse DCS (Decompression sickness)that can cause of death.That`s why observation is important during the course because it will tell you how to overcome it if you face that particular situation.So what`re you waiting for,le ts join the divers community.Let us discover the underwater world together.

You have a LIFE.... because you walk.... you eat... you go to bed....
I have a life... because I walk.... I swim... I go underwater.... I dive... yes... I dive....

About Me

Wednesday, January 20, 2010

Salam.I`m writing this post on purpose to told everybody about myself. Not to mention others is the guideline,it`s only a story about me,only me and not other people.For you all information,this is my first fresh start doing this kind of thing. So I expect I can improve my writing skills for the sake of thinking and writing strategies subject(just spouting nonsense,forgive me miss Mimi) and learn about editing a blog and website .Actually,i found that doing this kind of thing is quite interesting, whether we can express emotions,changing ideas,and even making businesses. I hope I`ll get motivational feedback and criticism comment from you guys, perhaps it will build myself as a better person,although some of you aced this kind of thing,don't hesitate to show me where is wrong so i can improve it and that process is called KAIZEN(a Japanese shout-out for improvement)Insyallah.

Alright,done with this warm-up introduction,i like to introduce myself first,named Muhammad Yasir Bin Umar that given by my beloved parents,born in Hospital Kuala Lumpur which is obviously in the state of W.P Kuala Lumpur,then i lived in Kuala Lumpur,to be specific in Cheras nearly half of my life in that area before i moved to Putrajaya.A little thing about Putrajaya,It`s a quite places and i think this place is for people who looking a private place to stay.And special about this place is you live in the same town with the Prime Minister,his Deputy,Minister,National Chief Secretary and others high ranking Federal Government Officer.Plus,you can see them regularly at the place like night market,mosque,and even 7-eleven.You can greet them or shake a hand with them.Why am i telling this,i think not everyone used to see them barely especially out of their working hour,even they dont` stay in their office for a long time and i bet some of you doesn`t even know or bother about them not to mention their name.So my point is,know your leader.Don`t only for purpose of interview but at least take a note for your knowledge. Forgive me if i`m hurting anybody feeling.I`ve no intention of doing that,just to gave my opinion.

Let`s move to my education,my first school is at SK Sultan Hishammuddin Alam Shah stated in Kuala Lumpur and
if u`re been there, it`s located opposite of National Bank.I`ve been in that school for 6 years and Nita is my classmates in that school.In UPSR,somehow i manage to get couple of A`s and been offered to an boarding school.I think choosing the school is quite important because it`s approach my life.I`ve got 2 offers for boarding school and that is Victoria Institution and SMKA Maahad Ahmadi instead Methodist Boys School, that is been offered by my primary school if the student doesn`t have any school to go.And i choose SMKA Maahad Ahmadi in Negeri Sembilan in order to live far from my parents.But i cannot manage my intentions for going back home every weeks and for that cases,my parents ask me to quit and changed to an ordinary school.After that,i quit from that school and change to an ordinary school in Putrajaya(SMK Putrajaya 1).Honestly,changing in environment had shocked me.For your concern,SMKA stand for Sekolah Menengah Kebangsaan Agama and the culture there is very different from ordinary school.Everyday i have to memorize the content of Al-Quran,woke up 5 in the morning,and many more thing that disciplined me.And for freedom of doing that kind of routine in ordinary school,plus living with my parents,i`ve been quite lost and my academics records turn bad.Actually it is my own decision and i`m not blaming anyone for it.After many years of lost,i`ve finally realized that having fun is never gonna end.And for that,i`ve struggle myself to be a better person and so far Alhamdulillah i manage to further my studies in university(UiTM).

Although i didn`t get the course that i applied,it`s fine with me.For me,maybe this is my way to succeed and this course is the beginning for it.The main point of it,just learn,intention will come.So,for you out there that feel bad about thinking maybe you can`t succeed if you don`t get what you`re applied,maybe you can change that.Think positive and not everyone got everything they want.Live your own life and don`t rely on others.That`s the reason for me choosing the title of my blog.I used to live in my life,but in the meantime,alert about the surrounding and make a friends.Life is great and only you can paint it with your own way.
