you're at the movies and wonder how strong the wind is blowing in the film, then start to daydream of your next kiting session and lose track of what's going on in the film! Reality of what a loser you are suddenly sinks in!

When its blowing perfect sw 20knots at woodies and you have back to back lessons all day but you still go home stoked because you managed to squeeze in a ten minute kite between lessons

You wake up and hope its blowing... You check the wind forcast and hope for the slightest chance in the wind picking up... You go through your day wondering if it's windy here, will it be windy at Wello?... You're eating dinner and your hoping it's blowing tomorrow! You go to bed and your thinking about what I accomplished kiting today, or what my goal for kiting tomorrow is... and you realize you have the next four months off uni to do this everyday

When you do battle with Johannesburg traffic and queues at the post office for two and a half hours to pick up one leaderline that's been overnighted from Durban so you can fix your bar and lines. Just in case you can go for a kite the next morning on a dam an hour and a half away. With a forecast that isn't very promising. I don't think I can live this far from the coast for much longer, I'm going troppo.

when u finish exams, jump on the train, sit on it for an hour, as you go past aspendale, edithvale, chelsea, bonbeach, carrum, seaford u look down EVERY SIDE STREET that leads to the beach, to get a 0.5sec glimps of the water's condition. u look for kites in the sky, guage the wind direction, decide on location to drive to. you get off the train at frankston, where the car awaits, full of kiting gear, drive straight to the beach, AND NO FRIGGEN WIND!

oh well, got all summer to kite now, just seems i missed like 10 good sessions whilst studying.

When you take the wheelie bin out, and suddenly realise that your holding a bar you commence to run fast and try a slick move, you miss it and the weeks rubbish falls over the drive,
You spend the next half hour frenetically claeaning up the **** hoping your neighbours dont notice.

Step 1. Drop work back to 4 days a week. Get depressed because Fridays aren't always windy.

Step 2. Add a week off each month. Much better. You get at least a couple of extra days kiting and can go to shops and check out new gear.

Step 3. Take time off work for the entire daylight saving/sea breeze season.

Step 4. Talk about going away but realise that be staying home you can: Sleep in. Have a leisurely breakfast. Stroll to a cafe for nice coffee. Home for a roll in the hay with the missus. Lunch. Afternoon nap. Realising your too old for a repeat performance with the missus. Head off for 3-4 hours kiting. Home for beer. Dinner. TV/Movies. Bed. Repeat every day for about 5 months.
