So ever since I took my discover scuba class a few weeks ago, literally all I dream about every single night is diving. Diving lakes and oceans and wrecks and reefs and everything else I can imagine. The funny thing is I have never dove or even snorkeled in open water so I have NO clue what it actually looks like down there- but my brain seems to think it does by compiling movies and visits to the aquarium! I havent even signed up for my open water class yet! Has scuba taken over anyone elses dreams?

Never dreamed (that I can remember) about diving....must be cool unless dream morphs into a Japanese monster movie. Featuring an oyster that due to atomic bomb test in the 50s grew to appx. the size of a house.

You say, but Joe, oysters don't move. Ah, but this one does. Due to massive doses of gamma rays, Oystilla has mutated and is jet propelled and his favorite food items are divers.

Chapter 2 coming soon.

Not my dreams---but my pocketbook has....

I can't recall any dreams I've had, but it's quite literally the only thing I think about. When I'm at work, I think of how I'm going to spend my money on gear and dive trips. When I'm at school, I think of how I'd much rather dive for a living rather than what my degree will be for. When I'm on the couch watching anything to do with being underwater, I'm wishing I was the guy holding the camera.

I found it funny that I grew up less than 30 minutes away from the beach in NJ, and I discovered diving after I moved to colorado for school! A friend and I are now both planning to go live somewhere abroad for a while, become instructors, and live the dream wherever destiny takes us. Hopefully this is a plan we can stick to!

Welcome to scubaboard, and welcome to diving!!

Hole cow is their anything else in the world that gives you freedom like diving?

answer: nothing!!!

Just jump in and take a class and soon you will be just like us! Scuba is like a good addiction.

You're lucky your mind takes you there. I always dream that there are perfect waves right there off the beach. But then I can't find my board, or wax, or something happens and I can't surf.

BUT, like you not diving yet, I also dream of snow skiing, which I've never done. I dream I'm ripping down a steep mountain, pressing and releasing....just like I see on TV and I can FEEL myself doing it in the dream. I guess once I do it though, I'll dream the snow will melt before I can get up the mountain.
Dreams.....craziness. When we sleep our mind pulls out some LSD or something.

I just have to say...I'm jealous.

If you want to be jealous you can, but I will say that I do get the occasional urge to get in the water in the winter and when I did it last year, it was 30 degrees outside, and the water was around 36 degrees, so..................that is why the dive only lasted around 20 minutes, my Sherwood regulator which was a warm water reg started to freeflow and I had to abort the dive.

:shocked2: That's not good! Well, I'm reconsidering my jealousy now...hmmm. I'll have to get back to you on that one. Lol!

I have dive dreams similar to Hank49. Various senerios and opportunties arrise for diving, but there's always problems with gear, getting to location, arrangements with dive buddies or group, etc. Always, I almost get to dive, can see into beautiful ceynotes, pools, ocean's edge but I wake up before getting in. :fish::goldfish:

There is nothing better that can put you in such a wonderful dreamlike atmosphere like diving. Hope you get certified and jump in soon!
