toxic@#$*

Hello!
I know i haven't posted anything lately and my fingers are really itching to type some words. But I don't want to post just anything, like what I am doing now(yeah, yeah...).
Work is just so toxic these days...Were running after impossible deadlines...
So, I will post later, I already have some materials I would like to post.
I just don't have the time now.
But sooooon I will.

kite flying?

Last week I had to attend a company function. The atmosphere was a bit relaxed and it was held at the Mall of Asia's SMX, so some officemates and I decided to watch the test flying of the company's entry to the kite contest on November.

back of MOA

It turned out that they were doing the test on a vacant field at the back of MOA near the iMax theater. It was a long walk from SMX to that place! Luckily I love strolling, besides the sea was just a few steps away...

I was a bit turned off with the gray border of the kite. Somebody said the cloth was supposed to look transparent on both sides of the colorful kite painting. I guess some of us were a bit disappointed with the appearance. I was expecting that a competitive design was conceptualized before I saw the kite. It turned out that the maker was not able to follow the design in detail. But their sales pitch can almost convince you that the kite was made into how it should really be.

having fun!

A lot of kites in different designs were being flown then. The company's kite also caught the camera's of ABS-CBN's MUB (a morning show). The segment producer had their camera trained on the company kite and (yeeeha!) to us! I guess we were included (hoped!) in MUB's Thursday 02 October 2008) show about those kites...

that guy was pedalling on to something-that doesn't-look-like-a-bike-but-works-like-a-bike while trying to control a "kite" that looks like a miniature parachute with his hands, hmmmmm... i wonder how is it called...

those guys were flying another "kite" which looked like a small parachute, care to tell what it was?

the field was strewn with seashells, the place was an intertidal area that was reclaimed
