It's been a while since we flew kites in class, but I'm going to talk about it now. (Better late than never. Right. Right..?) Anyway, we got into pairs and two and created a kite together that was supposed to illustrate our personality and also be able to fly. The pairs were selected by our professor and I ended up with Mark, a guy I had worked with successfully in one of my previous video classes, so that wasn't so bad.
We ended up discussing several different ways to make a kite but we finally settled on a super easy and cheap to make kite that was "guaranteed to fly" (quote from the website). We chose this particular kite mainly because it was cheap and we were both pretty much on a Ramen diet at the time. It took about ten minutes to make and test out, and we ended up using an X-Men comic book page to illustrate our personality as we are both big comic book and superhero fans, and our favorite was X-Men.
When we tested it out, it flew without too much trouble, so that was quite nice. All of the kites in the class flew, which was nice so we didn't have to vote over it. Overall, I really enjoyed the activity and the going outside to fly the kites was a nice change of pace.
Honestly, this has become my favorite class this semester.
...Don't tell the other professors.
