T3 (this one's for you too, bullet)

the first time i was in T3, we still called it the piatco terminal.  four years ago, i was there with arlene to check out the spanking new waiting-to-be-opened-and-used terminal...  we were there upon the invitation of mean, the PR manager of piatco.  i was so proud that we would finally have an airport terminal we could be proud of!

then today, we went there to see off my brother, bullet, who left for hongkong to compete at the pan-asia ultimate challenge.  (i heard he's one of the best players of ultimate disc in UP... haven't seen him play though.  but of course, i don't need proof!!! hahaha)

it was such a personal sense of fulfillment that i felt when we were walking around... because even if the operations still leave much to be desired, i sure as hell am mighty proud that we are finally using T3.  naia is just tooooo old, and the centennial terminal is tooooo small.  (i'd rather not talk about the old domestic terminal, though my childhood summers would usually find me there, shuttling back and forth between manila & tacloban)  T3 is spanking shiny, modern & "bright"... an airport terminal we can definitely be proud of.

so i got to thinking... bullet's first trip abroad, and he would be competing in a sport he loves with all his heart, and he would be leaving the philippines through/via a shiny, new, modern edifice...  well, that bodes well for his trip, i guess :)

good luck, 'let!!! :)  and have fun there...
