Origami Extreme - Part 3 !!!


Hello everyone! It was just last week that I posted something, but it was 10 MONTHS since the last time I posted in English. Uhm, long, yeah, whatever.
So it’s origami again, and this time is about dragons! I personally like them a lot. They are such great and beautiful creatures. However, in origami, dragons are usually extremely hard to make, and the most difficult model in the world right now is a dragon called Ryujin version 3.5 by Kamiya Satoshi (You can
click here to see the image). Since I’ve put a bit more effort this time than the two previous ones, hopefully you all would like it. :)
Again, most of them are made with one uncut square, and they are creations of other people. I just simply made them based on diagrams.


PART 03: DRAGONS
DRAGON FLIGHT by Charles Esseltine, pretty easy to make.
I don’t know the name of this model. It’s “Đầu rồng Thiên Long” in a manga called “Hiệp sĩ giấy”, published a long time ago :D
DIVINE DRAGON HEAD STATUE in “Hiệp sĩ giấy” manga also. I made this with 2 pieces of paper.
BEHAMUT (a.k.a. Divine dragon) by Kamiya Satoshi. If you look at part 02 again, you’ll see that he’s also the author of Unicorn, Chocobo, and Lion, and also Ryujin I’ve mentioned before.
CHUKA RYU by Hoang Trung Thanh. Yes, he IS Vietnamese!!! I made the dragon with seven pieces of paper. It took me forever to finish these scales =.=’
LAME DRAGON by Francisco Sanchez.
DRAGON SERPENT by Mario Netto.
HEART DRAGON by Fernando Gildago. I like this one, because it’s stocky somewhat, and the small wings are simply awesome.
SNAKE DRAGON by Marc Anglada.
DRAGON OF FIRE by Fernando Gildago again. This is my latest product (more precisely, I made it last night). This guy is really challenging, but the features are unique and worth-trying.
Yup, that’s it. I will be working on the next part, and will post it up as soon as possible.
Have a great Thanksgiving. Good bye!

How Many Words in This List That You Know?

How are you doing on your readings in general and more specifically in developing your vocabularies? Recently I started reading a book for my Finance class called The End of Wall Street by Roger Lowenstein. In the very first chapter of the book – a short 6-page prologue, there were many words that I did not know, and I am listing them here: destitute somnolent bulwark scrutinize (to) prick quiescent laudatory salient fervent (adj) frothy parlance umbilical (cord) placate carnage plenitude opiate dictum stupendous I was so surprised to see so many new words in such a small amount of pages! How is this Roger Lowenstein guy? You would think that while reading a finance book, the only words you would stumble upon are technical terms or lingos. Or maybe I am just bad. How many words in the list above that you already know?

How to Become a Teller For Bank of America

I currently am working for Bank of America (BofA) as a teller, and it’s been 2 months now. A little bit about what I am, I am an international student whose first language is not English. When I graduated from college, I didn’t do any internship and had no remotely related experience to banking industry. I was full of disadvantages. BofA’s website clearly stated that they wouldn’t typically hire and sponsor F1-visa students, and, on top of everything, the economy was painfully lagging. One cannot help but wonder why in the world they would hire someone like me while millions of Americans were being unemployed. That’s why I really think that I should share my story, and that my story might be somewhat beneficial for some of you who are now reading it. The first and foremost reason was because I was interested in BofA deeply. When I was in my junior year, I was reading my Marketing textbook. The featured story of chapter 8 was about Bank of America, the history of the compa

The Ineffectiveness of English

I have interacted with English since kindergarten, and for the last four years I have been living in the US, using solely English for daily communications. Despite my effort of continual self-improving, I can’t quite understand the language. There have been explanations, of course, such as how it’s not my first language, how cultures and traditions get in place… Only recently, it strikes me with a more understandable reason: English is an ineffective language. There are so many disadvantages of English. First of all is the way one person talks to another. You can only use “I” and “you” no matter if the person you’re talking to is an earthworm or a high king. The same with “he”, “she”, “it”, and “they”. All the languages that I have ever associated with, which are French, Japanese, Korean, Vietnamese, and Cantonese, they have different words to address different people. I believe this should be the way to talk, since each person requires to be treated with respect, order, and
