CRANE COUNT: 83 (8.3 percent)
That's it...first round of finals are over! I've had wayy too much caffeine and too little sleep in the last couple days...! Isn't it odd that as a preschooler, naps were of the highest degree of evil, while now in high school/college, you look forward to naps? I'm not ashamed..I love my naps:)
Well I'm pretty proud of myself- haven't slacked off too much from the crane mission. Getting close to 100!!
I've finally decided on the perfect crane-speech for strangers:
"Hey, could you help me with a project? I'm trying to fold 1,000 origami peace cranes and give them to 1,000 different people. Could you take crane ___?" Usually they're totally confused at first, then really love the idea once they realize exactly what I'm doing.
My favorite part of this project is has to be seeing people's reactions. They range from totally excited.."DUHH of course you can take my picture for your blog!!" to confused...(I think the Goodwill girl still gets the prize for that one)...to refusal..
Sometime, I just want to go to a crowded public place (mall, downtown Indy, concert, ect.) and randomly hand out cranes. In some ways I was sorta inspired by the whole the
free hugs idea which I have always thought was really cute and creative. Make a "free cranes" t-shirt? Idk...but I think that would be pretty fun.
These are the cranes I've made since last post: (some are missing cuz people have to send me their pictures, and some numbers are saved as a special request)

PEACE (cranes) y'all!!
PS. PLEASE do not judge me on my math skills of earlier posts! In case you didn't notice, 50 is not 0.05 percent of 1,000 (duh). That's what four years of high school math gives you..the inability to correctly calculate percentages=P or it could also be lack of sleep or complete stupidity. Either way:)
hahaha! free cranes shirt would be peeerrrfect! you'd probably become famous, everyone will be doing this, and everyone would eat at chipotle. oh, and the speech is pretty good too. its pretty ...well clear enough as far as this goes ;) but definitely make the shirt, SUCH a good idea.
ReplyDeletehaha def!;) you need to come on a crane-giving mission with me sometime!
