Diving and physics- argh!

Having had much to update this week - so thought I would just share a few stories. Money keeps coming in for the orphanage, which is just so great!! I am going on another shopping spree this weekend so should have more pictures for everyone to see the exact goods and products you are contributing. Emily goes to the orphanage about 3 times a week and has managed to befriend a number of the little kids- they are so cute.

Last night was another Dive Theory class. Unfortunately the first half of the lecture was completely lost to me as it was all about the Physics of diving- aye caramba!! I now know why I failed Chemistry in University, well almost failed. I completely tuned out at one point, thinking of other things, and noticed Emily frantically writing notes about the equation for Atmospheric Pressure. I leaned over to her and said "wow you take such great notes" and her response was "Well the difference between your notes and my notes is that the first thing you wrote was the name of the Instructor's family members". - which he did put on the board :)

Afterwards we went to the bar downstairs for the social event. Our dutch friend was asking me questions about pressure systems- to which I began to outline the pressure I sometimes feel at work. Emily was rolling her eyes at this point and was like "Ummm...Amanda she meant pressure in the water, relating to DIVING!".... ooops.

So apparently I will need to study the physics portion of diving.

Something tells me that you likely didn't do well in sciences in university. :) Physics isn't chemistry. Having the two mixed-up likely is the cause of your poor grades! :P
