July 6th, 2011Earlier today (or for some, yesterday) I decided that I'm going to fold another one thousand paper cranes (I say "another" because I made about four or five when I was younger). Right now, I have no idea what my wish is going to be, but hopefully I think of one when I'm folding all these little beasts. With the amount of paper I have right now, I can fold 77. Now, if I use the smaller paper (just under 4½in x 4½in), I could do a total of 93. Which I'll probably end up doing (baby cranes are just so
cute).

I've given myself until the 4th of July, an
entire year. My goal is to make a minimum of three cranes a day, which gives me an extra month or so as make-up days for when I was unable to make the three. Which I don't see likely, but whatever.
August 6, 2011Today I decided that I'm only going to use pre-cut, measured origami paper (so that took about ten+ out of my total). This should make it easier not only to be able to tell people what size paper I used, but I plan (i.e.
hope) that I can make mobiles out of the similar sizes and sell them at conventions I go to. Who knows.
September 16, 2011I just found out that my dear friend, ~
Akita-Chuken, was folding cranes just for something to do...
so I challenged her. Whoever gets 1,000 cranes first, wins. Of course, the deadline is still July 4th. c:
January 8, 2012Due to the tearing of the RCL and anular ligament in my elbow, I've been unable to fold cranes for roughly the last two months. Because of this, ~
Akita-Chuken and I agreed to move the due date for the cranes back to the 2nd of September, exactly 60 days from the original date. Coincidentally, this is also her birthday. May happy wishes be granted for everyone!
March 31st, 2012Added a new size, because Akita and I both found a packet of 500 pieces of 4" origami paper at a craft store. Also, almost 1/3 of the way there~
April 6th, 2012After cutting some much larger origami paper into smaller sizes, two more "accepted" sizes have been added.
Because one of my friends is a nosy little-
Sizes:
6" square
5 7/8" square
4½" square
4" square
3½" square
3" square
2½" square
And thus this is all I write.
