Okay, this is really random and has nothing to do with origami.


I just wanted to wish everyone a happy Fat Tuesday!
And remind them to go to iHop before 10 pm to get their free pancakes.  That's all!

Hey everyone!  Sorry it's been so long without an update!

I'm not in charge of the storage of the stars this year, so I don't always know how many there are.

Thanks to Numerosity for having a bunch of people (including me =)) fold them at her birthday party.  We now are a lot closer than before! 

That's all for now, but I'll keep you posted.

Oooooo, forgot to mention that I will have pictures of our progress up in the pictures section soon.

Greetings, people of Earth

Hey!

So, no real new update on the ninja stars because it is still the weekend.

Just a little note about my own little project I've been working on.

I'm not sure what number I'm trying to get to, but I (obviously) know what I'm folding.

Wanna know what it is?

TOO BAD!

As of tomorrow, you have to enter the contest (c'mon, it's the link right above this one-Make a Wish) to find out what I'm makin'

I will keep the count up here though, so:

 

Ninja Stars: 160

Skywriter's Project: 697

 

Start entering the contest, people!
You even get a cool little graphic for your site!

So, summer's drawing to a close.  That's both bad news and good news for the FoldAThousand gang.

Bad news: Do you honestly have to ask?
Good news: We'll be back together again!  And we'll have a new Thousand challenge.

Wanna know what it is?  Well, join the site and find out!  I'll be sending out an e-mail to our members after the first day of school (September 3) to tell them what we'll be folding this year! (We've already got it figured out)

I've got some new origami paper, thanks to my grandpa, so the-uh-whatever we're folding this year-should look really great.

Speaking of looking great-I'm so sorry I haven't been able to post new pictures of the finished cranes!  My digital camera is really crappy, and I lost the cord to it.  So I am hopefully getting a new camera for my birthday (10/27), and I'll put up more pics ASAP.

That's all for now!  Back to my summer homework.

Days of summer left: 6
Paper cranes I've folded in the last 2 weeks: 138

Day of Silence

Posted by Fold A Thousand at 04:45 PM on April 25, 2008 Comments comments (0)

Hey everyone!  Sorry no entry yesterday.  I was sick, so I didn't get any more paper cranes done.

Today was the Day of Silence.  I didn't only participate because one of my best friends is the vice president of our school's GSA, but Sadako wanted hate to be erased in the world.  What better way to honor her wishes then to stand up for a group of people who are being ridiculed, beaten, and even killed for who they are or who they aren't, nothing more, nothing less?

Oh, and, a little something I forgot to add-WE FINISHED!!!!!  Finally done!  It was so amazing to finally be done, but then I couldn't say my wish because I couldn't talk for Day of Silence!  Though I have now said it out loud, because I can finally talk.  And I didn't explode!

So, thank you SO so much to all the people who helped make this really, really great.  Without everyone, I would have gone completely bonkers.  I think that if all of you hadn't helped me, I would have gone crazy(er).  Thanks specially to Numerosity-I think together, we did most of them.  She is a folding machine!  Plus, she donated a LOT of her own paper to the project.

What was the last crane, you ask?  Why, a big gold one, of course!  I'll have pics up soon!

Thanks to everyone who followed us while we were working on this!  I might make a graphic for everyone who posted on our guestbook (not those of you who just said hi, sign my guestbook, I mean the people who actually looked at our site!).

So, thanks to everyone!  Once you've caught the foldathousand bug, you just can't let go.  We'll let you know when our next project is!
