actually, I'm not really going to Aruba, it just rhymed.

Anywho, I am going to St. Lucia this winter vacation and I've just been to 10 hours of scuba training. (whew!) Beforehand, I had to complete five chapters of reading in the nifty scuba book and watch some nifty videos. They really make you do a lot of work to earn your scuba diving certification! Anywho, I thought it was just the coolest thing to be underwater (and yet breathing!) Even though we were just in a pool, it was super exciting and there was a couple in the class who raved about how wonderful St. Lucia was for diving. Apparently, it's known for it's beautiful coral. Also, the places I'm going to be diving in won't be crowded because you have to take a raft from a nearby town to get to our resort. (It's rather ghetto that way, but also secluded and nice.) So anyway, eee! I'm so excited to go diving!
