[ WP ] Instead of living on land , Humans are an aquatic species that live in the ocean . Write a journal entry describing the average day .

Sorry if I did n't follow fully, I did n't notice you said AVERAGE day until I already wrote the third paragraph. I still followed everything else. Now to the story:

 Today was the day. I work for NALA, National Aquanautics and Land Administration. We had recently been working on a nice project. I woke up early morning, the air tasted a little dusty. I live near the launch pad, so I know if they've sent ships up. I walk to work, by our power plant. It's a nuclear plant so enormous the top actually reaches out of the water. we had to build it from the top down, pushing it up, we do n't have the technology to build that high otherwise. Our city is quite proud of it, as it's mot efficient and better for our crater's size than geothermal or water current turbines. I arrived at work, showed my ID card to security and came in. 
 
 Today is a special day, the launching of the Sea to Land Transport Vessel 2, or SLTV-2 for short. It's designed to take a group of three to the land, and collect samples. We have been somewhat rushed as the enemy had just recently done so, though apparently they had a few leaks and it had to immediately return. We will have a chance at real science. We will be the first to step foot in a waterless environment, and the second to leave this group of encasing craters. 
 
 Apparently the ship sent off earlier was a spy probe, not from a section I work at. Watch the enemy and all that. Does n't matter, my job is up. Suit up time. It takes about 2 hours of prep, new suits are expensive, got ta make sure everything is 100 %. I sit down in my seat and wait for the others. 
 
 Everyone is ready. The fuel is in, the sub pointed up with a little payload of ours too, another ship. Then I hear the countdown. 10. 9. 8. 7. 6. 5. 4. 3. 2. 1. Blastoff. We fire into the sky, the open ocean, the great unknown. I am thrust back to my seat and pushed against it. After about 30 seconds of thrusting, the boosters drop. I see the ocean growing around me, the ground distancing. Then I see the blue tint of our air disappear. I see what we put in our ships, they collect this stuff to float. We call it surface air and it is clear. I see ground above our water in the brief seconds our sub is in this material. We crash down on the water and immediately activate the SACs, or Surface Air Collectors. Our sub floats like the many ships, and we release our payload. In the seconds I saw of land, I saw green, and a lot of it. A distant structure too, a pyramid but curved in. 
 
 We tell ground control we are OK, and start slowly thrusting to the land. We stop at a distance to not hit the underwater ground, and continue on cabled suits. We step forward and see a most interesting world. This greenery is alive, it's like our coral, it's a plant. It comes in many shapes, tall, short, wide, thin. We take dozens of samples, until one of my allies seems something in the distance, that moved. We do n't see it any more, this is interesting. We first fear the Rushins are here now, we do n't want to fight. We are Aeronauts, not soldiers. I pick up a brown rod of this plant material, ready as a weapon, and approach. I stop when I see the short green bubble nearby shakes. I see something poke its head out. An animal? On surface land? It's got a long nose, which it's mouth extends to. It then bares it's mouth open, and produces a low vibrating noise. A growl I think. We back up, collect more samples and take more images. It seems there is something even above this land though as we spend time here. A black and distance surface, with white dots we never saw in the water. And then a second sun, though much less bright. This asks so many questions one trip can not answer. We return to our sub, and descend back home.
