Today I feel Disappointed

give yourself a chance; it's hard to relax and fight the instinct NOT to breathe underwater. You'll get it, and then be so proud. I like how you used all the cool sea elements here. 

The colours of this page look great. I hope you overcome your fear and try to not be anxious as the more you are anxious  the worse it will be for you. 

Oh my... I understand! Hubby and I love to snorkel, so one time we tried to "snuba" (it's a helmet device that is attached to an airtank above the water). I tried three times to calm myself and submerge myself under water.... but yikes....my claustrophobia kicked in full force! Gulp!!! Despite my head wanting to try the experience, my body said nope! Thanks for sharing your story on this lovely layout.

Good luck with the lessons--maybe it was just a beginners thing.  Great page, though!  Love all the water elements and great blues.  Wonderful layout!

oh no! I am so sorry it didn't work out the first time. I hope the next time you try, your body will be relaxed. Greeat LO! I like all the underwater elements you used

thanks for all the encouragement everyone,  my 2nd attmept will be this thurs-  hoping to do it really want to be able to try the real thing in Turks and Caicos over spring break

thanks for nice feedback on layout as well

Good luck on your second attempt.  Hope to see a LO of your success later on:)  In the meantime, I really enjoyed your LO and your use of all the themed elements.  isn't it great that there is a kit out there for every activity you can imagine these days

Great layout. Love the cute sea clusters.

Good luck with your lessons, hope you can overcom your anxiety. I think I would probably do the same think to be honest. Love your LO!!

It'll work out!! I think you're in the perfect place to get over that anxiety. I love the page you made about it and that you journaled it. Nicely done. And don't give up!

Give yourself some time, hopefully your next lesson will be better! Love the clusters of fun sea elements you used!

OH good luck on the scuba!  I think I would panic too! 

Hope next time goes better! Great page!

Awww, I am sorry about your experience! Hopefully you will be able to find something close to it that you can enjoy.

take deep breaths!  Love all the themed elements

Love the scuba elements accenting your photos and journaling. I hope you are able to manage the lessons and enjoy yourself. It does seem intimidating. Good luck!

I can only imagine how scary it is... I never got past the swim test when I wanted to learn to scuba dive. I hope you are able to conquer the fear and put your anxiety behind you. Good luck! 

Love the themed elements and colors. 

Hang in there.  I, too, get anxious when snorkeling.  I'm sure with practice it will be better.  Great layout!

wanted to update those who gave me words of encouragement on my scuba endeavor  I managed to get through my scuba lesson last week and it looks like I'll get the pool work done before we leave on spring break. Yeah!
