Origami Supreme !!!

Image
By
“Origami” is a Japanese art of folding paper to make some shapes of animals, humans and a lot of other stuff. I was about six or seven when my mom gave me my first origami book. The book was about dinosaurs, and it amazed me a lot. But I was still too young for it; therefore I needed help from my mom. I still remember the days that my mom, my cousin Minh and me gathered together to figure out how to do it. It had a lot of fun, until my mom and cousin Minh gave up. Only me left to try alone, until the day I achieved it. Origami since then became one for my favorites, especially folding dinosaurs.

It was such a long time from now, and my old hobby once again revives. Let me show you some of them. Hope you’d like them.

Note: ALL of them are John Montrol's inventions; I JUST made them based on books.
ALL of them were made by only one uncut-square paper. :)

Part 1: DINOSAURS

STRUTHIOMIMUS
(It was hard to make him stand only on his legs :D)

KUEHNEOSAURUS

ELASMOSAURUS (he is little Pi-su in one Doraemon manga, remember? ^^)

RHAMPHORYNCHUS (one of my favorites- I can memorize folding it)
(the stick on his back is not included)

DIMETRODON

BRACHIOSAURUS
(I memorize him also)

TYRANNOSAURUS
(he doesn’t look so scary, right? :D)

APATOSAURUS
Some other ones. They are more intense to fold.
TANYSTROPHEUS
(He is the longest – even longer than the original paper!!!)

TRICERATOPS

STEGOSAURUS
Yeah, that’s it. :)

Special thanks for mom and miss Ngoc.

And THANK ALL of YOU for watching. Will be CONTINUED.

    Is this my stegosaurus? What do you do with all of these when you are done? Do you have a display case somewhere like an art museum?

    Of course not. I made you a new one every time! Origami stuffs get worn out quickly so I dont store them.

How Many Words in This List That You Know?

By
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

By
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

By
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 ...
