Living in a Garage With an Alien Car

Chapter 95

And then, a thought creeping in.

In life, everything depends on what a person decides to do.

However, it is quite difficult to make a decision and act on it.

However, if you have only 1% of something in your mind, it is right to do it.

This trip was also a very hesitant one.

“Everything has its time.”

These days, the words that my deceased father spit out like a habit are coming to me desperately.

Booung.

From the driveway to the farm, he heard Ki-hoon’s car coming in.

“It’s a knife, it’s a knife.”

When I said not to overdo it, I remembered Ki-hoon, who waved his hand at me saying he had plenty of time because there were fewer surfers.

“Brother, did you sleep well?”

“You slept so well.”

“Isn’t the bed uncomfortable?”

“The trailer is quite wide. And above all, the scenery here is amazing.”

“uh…”

Belatedly, Ki-hoon’s mother, a haenyeo, approached with a bunch of packages in both hands.

Without realizing it, I had to jump out of my seat.

“Oops, mother. What are you doing early in the morning?”

“Did you sleep well? He said he was sleeping in the car, so he came because he was worried about me. These days, it’s cold and I need to sleep warmly.”

“Yesterday, Ki-hoon bought me something delicious. I slept very well. You have to be careful about getting a license. The material is dangerous…”

“…”

With that delicate body, you spent your whole life doing things and sending your children to prestigious universities.

“Mother, we have to leave our center now.”

“Okay. If there is something to come out to the haenyeo village, it comes out again.. this..”

“…what is this?”

“How delicious the beer and seafood were at that time…”

That’s why he brought me a horn conch.

“..I brought it because you seem to like seafood. It’s delicious whether it’s steamed or grilled, so leave it and eat it. Very fresh.”

“Ah…I need to buy this…”

“Ayu, what is good about knowing people? It’s okay.. You treat me like a son. Like a son.”

“Yes.. Mother.. Thank you.. I will eat well.”

Ki-hoon handed over the heavy package of seafood that his mother must have caught instead.

Ki-hoon makes a fuss while looking inside the heavy package.

“Wow, even cuttlefish? There is nothing. There is nothing missing.”

“..And eat this as a snack when you’re hungry.”

He handed over another small bag he had brought with him.

“Mom, what is this again? Ha.. this is so..”

barley bread

“Mom, did you bring this for Hoon?

“Yes, you can take out what’s inside and give it to me later. i will come again Don’t worry and eat slowly.”

It was Ki-hoon, not me, who snatched the small bag my mother gave me.

Ki-hoon must have thought that all his mother brought was seafood.

Perhaps more curious than I was, I put my hand inside and looked around.

“Mom, what is it?”

back and forth.

“Ah, it’s barley bread.”

barley bread.

It seemed that he had heard of it, or that he had seen it written in the market, and it was long.

“Hyung, this is also a special product of Jeju Island. You can eat it as a snack like bingtteok, or it’s convenient to eat it as a meal replacement in the morning.”

“Ah, thank you mother. This is good for me in the morning. ha ha ha.”

“The days are getting colder, but you have to eat well so you don’t catch a cold. I surf and dive.”

“Your mother should be careful of catching a cold as well.”

“It’s something we do every day, so we don’t catch colds often. The first person to enter easily catches a cold.”

“That’s right. My mother has never had a cold in her life. Seeing that.”

“yes.”

That’s right.

Being blown by the cold wind every day and going into the water is their daily routine. They don’t catch a cold easily.

Like me, when I am exposed to the sea breeze or cold sea water for the first time, my body is startled and catches a cold.

That’s why people who have no immunity or are weak get a runny nose and catch a cold easily.

Come to think of it, I don’t catch colds well either.

This too.. is a blessing. luck.

Fighting.

Gihun took out a piece of barley bread from his bag and tore it apart.

“Brother, shall we share half? Seeing barley bread for the first time in a while makes me want to eat it.”

“It’s good.”

Wanting to see what he looked like, Ki-hoon took a step closer to him.

“Wow, it looks like the old buns, right?”

I remember the buns and steamed buns I heard in a round steamer when I was young.

There are two colors, light brown and wormwood.

“That’s right, it’s made with black barley and mugwort grown on Jeju Island, so it’s really fresh and delicious.”

Jeju Island is vast and I am personally experiencing many things to eat.

When Ki-hoon opened the plastic wrapper and cut the light brown barley bread in half, black bean paste was revealed.

“wow.”

“If you don’t like sweets, choose and eat the ones that don’t have sediment.”

“Yes, mother. Sweets are delicious too. It’s fresh red beans. But, the thing embedded in the bread is…”

“That’s barley grain.”

“Oh, I see.”

In front of food, I have a lot of questions.. I just eat it.

After receiving the barley bread from Ki-hoon,

“Mother, I will eat well.”

gurgling gurgling, gulp.

This is why it is called the old barley bread.

The chewy texture feels a bit rough, but the soft red bean paste mixes in the mouth, adding a savory taste and sweetness to offset it.

A cup of warm milk here would be enough for breakfast.

“Wow, it’s really savory, sweet, and delicious.”

“Brother, I like you very much. A complete elementary school appetite?”

“Kihun-ah, elementary school students don’t eat these things these days. Have a hamburger or pizza.”

“Oh, is that so? ha ha ha.”

A chuckle was heard from the cafe building.

My aunt and wife came over to us and greeted my sister.

“Come on, it’s late. I’ll go have a cup of tea here.”

“Okay bro, let’s go now. My aunt will take care of the chewing gum. Because there is Bok-dol Bok-soon.”

When I woke up, I let them outside.

I can’t even see where I’m playing right now.

It seemed like they were playing nearby.

It was a bit late, but with my aunt and her husband, I was able to head to the dive center with peace of mind.

Today’s training is the last session.

Together with buddy Nam Jeong-mi, they have to prepare without the help of an instructor from beginning to end, from equipment assembly, and they have to perform missions in open water.

It was possible because the basic education was done at the beach on the first day at the pool.

After all the preparations, we arrived at the entry point.

Today it went further.

The wind was calm and the waves were not too big.

sunny weather.

Instructor Kim Hae-jin says that such clear weather has good forward visibility, so you can secure a view comparable to that of Southeast Asia.

He nodded, saying that it is good to finish training today and that the weather is helping a lot.

The sea water temperature has risen and the sea water temperature has not dropped significantly even in winter, so you can see fish and aquatic creatures that you could not see on Jeju Island before.

Also, in February, the visibility is better than in the summer, so it is said that clear skin is possible.

Hmm.. I’m not sure if this is good.

It seems that he is hiding his expression mixed with concern so as not to show off in front of us.

Because that’s not the diver’s fault.

with a plop.

After finishing all the preparations, I got it with my buddy Nam Jung-mi at the point of acquisition.

Nam Jeong-mi, who had a hard time because she was not used to gravity training, calmed down today.

Instructor Haejin Kim and one of the instructors follow us from behind to see if we need help.

pu… pu…

After exchanging glances, Nam Jeong-mi and I began to swim slowly while controlling buoyancy while giving stretched hand signals.

wow.

As instructor Kim Hae-jin said.

I am afraid that I will face a fish of a brilliant color that I did not see yesterday and be fascinated by the first creature I see.

It is wonderful beyond mystery.

This is another universe.

From noble mtl dot com

It seems to be floating in space in a state of weightlessness.

Because there is no air in space, no sound can be heard.

What would it feel like? You would probably feel extreme fear.

Under the sea is different.

I can’t come to my senses.

We were busy swimming the course in the sea as instructed by instructor Kim Hae-jin.

The weight of gravity given by the depth of 18 meters was great, but we adjusted the buoyancy as we learned.

The more different the course, the more different the depth, the more I was amazed at the mystery of the new sea.

In this way, I was able to complete the actual training by diving in open water in different areas in the morning and afternoon.

Only the final written exam remains.

After the diver, I returned to the center and took a quick shower.

Now all that’s left is the PADI Open Water Diverqus theory test.

Based on what you have learned so far, you have to get a certain score to pass.

As instructor Kim Hae-jin said, I installed the test application and proceeded with the test according to the process.

All you have to do is check the multiple-choice questions, and if you fail, you can look again.

Even when I was writing for the driver’s license test, I was the one who passed at once.

The questions were divided into a total of 5 sessions and further divided by session item.

I have a little doubt.

‘Did I learn this much?’

anyway,

It’s just a matter of slowly bringing back memories.

The first question item of Session 1 is about a simple equipment system.

That’s why equipment is so important.

Choose from four systems to make up your scuba kit.

‘It’s simple.’

I read the check items and started checking them one by one.

BCD (buoyancy control device), regulator, cylinder, weight system…

Then, skills as a diver, equipment, using a diving computer and table, lines of the underwater world, knowledge review, etc. It was good because it meant to review what I had learned so far rather than a test, and there was a quiz for each chapter, so I went over the parts I didn’t know well. The system to study was good.

last..

When I ran the final test chapter, the open water diver final test…

After a while…

‘You passed. 80% test score’

pass The passing score is 75%, but I overwrought a whopping 5%.

“Oh my gosh, I passed.”

Nam Jeong-mi, who had been tested with me earlier, also covered her mouth and laughed.

Instructor Kim Hae-jin and another instructor came in and shared the joy of congratulations.

A restaurant specializing in black pork in Jeju Island.

In order to enjoy the joy more, instructor Kim Hae-jin led us here.

A black pig house with a clear view of the sea off Jeju Island.

Isn’t this a foul?
