**Scuba on a Stick in Kota Kinabalu 🐠🤿**

In Kota Kinabalu, where the seas are blue,
I thought, “Scuba diving? That’s so passé, too!” 😏
So, I grabbed my pogo stick, quite a scene,
And bounced to the reef like a diving machine! 🤸‍♂️🌊

The locals stared, their jaws unhinged,
As I strapped on my tank and flippered fins. 🩴🐟
"Who needs a boat? I’m built to bounce!"
With a *boing* and a *splash*, I made it count! 💦💥

Down I went, like a kangaroo,
Bouncing past fish in technicolour hues. 🌈🐡
A grouper gasped, "Is this for real?!"
While a moray eel laughed, "That’s *some* appeal!" 😂🦑

I pogoed past corals, avoiding the lot,
But got wedged in a sponge—it was less than hot. 🧽🤦‍♂️
A turtle rolled by, slow as a slug,
And kindly freed me with a seaweed tug. 🐢❤️

Then a shark swam up, his fins on show,
"Fancy a race?" I said, "Let’s go!" 🦈🏁
We zipped through the reef—pogo versus speed—
And I bounced right past him, taking the lead! 🎉🏆

Now I’m a hero, a bouncing star,
Scuba stick champ with fans near and far! 🌟👑
So, if diving’s dull, don’t hesitate,
is the latest craze! 🐙💃

14th to 18th October 2024

**Orangutan Adventures**

Oh, Kota Kinabalu, what a sight,
To snorkel with an orangutan in the light.
He swam like a pro, a furry delight,
And made me giggle with all his might.

He grabbed a starfish, a colorful gem,
And held it up, as if to show them.
He played with the fish, so full of glee,
A friend to the ocean, wild and free.

So if you're ever in Kota Kinabalu,
Snorkel with an orangutan, it's true.
A memory you'll cherish, forever and a day,
An adventure you'll never want to stray.

6th October 2024

**Scuba Kettle Adventures**

I packed my kettle, bright and new,
For diving in Kota Kinabalu.
Thought it'd be a quirky sight,
To boil some tea beneath the light.

But when I dove, the fish did stare,
And wondered what was in my lair.
A kettle? Surely, that's a joke,
A fishy tale to be bespoke.

I tried to boil, but bubbles rose,
And seaweed wrapped around my toes.
The current pulled, I lost my grip,
And tumbled down a coral slip.

The kettle clanged, a mournful sound,
As I descended, lost and drowned.
A fishy funeral, sad and deep,
For me and my poor boiling heap.

🐳🫖🤣

**Why You Shouldn't Scuba in a Dress**
*(A Cautionary Poem)*

I thought I'd be fancy, I thought I'd impress,
So I jumped in the sea, in a long flowing dress.
In Kota Kinabalu, the water’s so clear,
But my wardrobe choice? Oh dear, oh dear! 🤦‍♀️

The fish stared in awe, the coral did too,
As my dress flowed around like a big, tangled goo.
It wrapped around my flippers, it caught on a rock,
I flailed like an octopus caught in a sock! 🐙🧦

My buddy swam past, with a look of surprise,
As I spun like a mermaid with chaos in her eyes.
The current was pulling my skirt like a sail,
My dive turned dramatic, a comedy tale. 🌊😵

The turtles were laughing, the clownfish as well,
I was the underwater fashion show from hell!
So here's some advice if you're planning to dive:
Leave your gowns on the beach if you want to survive!





So next time you're diving, in case you're unsure,
Just wear a wetsuit—it's safe and secure.
'Cause a long flowing dress, though it might look divine,
Will turn your scuba into a tangled-up sign! 😆

20th August to 2nd Sepetebr 2024

**Why Scuba Diving Is Better Than Peanut Butter Sandwiches**

When it comes to life's greatest pleasures, people often argue over the classics: the thrill of scuba diving or the comfort of a peanut butter sandwich. But let's dive into why slipping into a wetsuit trumps slapping together bread and peanut butter any day. 🌊🥪

First off, scuba diving opens up a whole new world—literally. Beneath the waves, you're greeted by colorful coral, curious fish, and the occasional sea turtle who's probably judging your fin technique. Meanwhile, a peanut butter sandwich greets you with... crumbs. Exciting, right? 😏

While munching on a PB sandwich, you're stuck on land, possibly watching reruns on the couch. But with scuba diving, you're weightless, floating in a serene underwater paradise. Plus, you don't have to worry about jelly dripping onto your shirt—because let’s face it, jelly is just a sticky situation waiting to happen. 😅

And let's talk about calories. Scuba diving burns them while giving you a killer story to share later. Eating a peanut butter sandwich? Well, let's just say that the only thing you're burning is the desire to make another one. 🔥

In conclusion, while peanut butter sandwiches are nice, they simply can't compete with the adrenaline-pumping, fish-spotting, seaweed-dodging excitement of scuba diving. So next time you're faced with the choice, grab your snorkel, not your sandwich. 🌍🐠

11th to 19th July 2024

Scuba diving in Kota Kinabalu is leagues better than having your car serviced because:

1. **Adventure Awaits**: Instead of sitting in a drab waiting room with stale coffee, you could be swimming with turtles and exploring coral reefs. 🐢🌊

2. **Breathtaking Views**: Forget staring at your mechanic’s greasy overalls. How about vibrant marine life and stunning underwater vistas? 🐠🌺

3. **Stress Relief**: While a service bill can make your heart race, scuba diving lowers stress levels and makes you feel zen. 🧘‍♂️✨

4. **Social Media Gold**: Diving pics get way more likes than those awkward "waiting at the garage" selfies. 📸💖

5. **Epic Stories**: "I saw a shark!" sounds infinitely cooler than "I need a new timing belt." 🦈🚗

6. **No Up-sells**: No one underwater tries to convince you that you need new brake pads. 🛠️✌️

7. **Vitamin Sea**: You get sun, sea, and fresh air diving. At the garage, you get exhaust fumes and bad lighting. 🌞🏝️

So, trade that oil change for a sea change! 🤿💦
