The exams which caused me to stay back in KT for the Christmas and New year holidays were finally over! Kinda depressing you know.. with a whole mountain of books to read, which after reading also I can only retain about 10% and forget the rest; knowing that failure was never an option; and also thanks very much to our schooling system that has holidays in December every year, so when December comes everyone is already in a mood for enjoyment.
Well to give myself some motivation, I promised myself to do something fun after the exams; so after the exams me and a bunch of friends went to fly kites along the beach. Yay! (Yes, it might sound sad but this is one of the few sources of entertainment here. No Avatar all ok)
Which after all wasn't too bad. Couldn't find any 'wau's so I got myself a small kite which could make all the other children go green with envy:
Ben 10 can fly! And it's legs can move too!
It really did because as I was flying it a small kid passed by and exclaimed 'Ayah, ada wau Ben 10!' Which the daddy quickly denied.. hmm.. perhaps he's scared the son will pester him to buy one.
I did play kite once or twice before but last time I remembered that to let the kite 'take off' I'd have to throw up the kite and start running like there's no tomorrow. Kite flying is a little different here, no need to run but the challenge is learning to navigate it as the wind is real strong.

Up, up and away!
The condition of the waves for today. I love monsoon!
