Origami Extreme - Part 2 !!!


Hi all, it's been awhile since the last time I posted an entry. This time I continue with my works on Origami ^^. Again, any of these models was folded by one un-cut square.

PART 2: CONVENTION

BUTTERFLY by Robert Lang, an admirable guy with a lot of bug creations.





HORSE by Anibal Voyer



UNA RATA (rat) by Eric Joisel. Since this year is a year of a mouse, I folded 2 of this and gave them to my friends here. Unfortunately, they thought my products were …dinosaurs T_T. So, in case anyone here thinks this is a dinosaur or whatever else, please understand that I was trying to make a cartoon rat :) .




TURTLE by John Montrol – the author of all the dinosaurs I did last time, remember?




UNICORN by Kamiya Satoshi – the current world Origami champion. (I will show more of his wonderful stuffs in the future). About this product, I didn’t do well, partly because of the material which was a piece of mere print paper.



CHOCOBO by Kamiya Satoshi again. Chocobo is a really famous character in the series of the game FFX.




LION 1.0 by Kamiya Satoshi. This model was really intense! I took me a while to finish this, and I feel really satisfied with it.





The lion is the last model for this time. I hope you all would enjoy this entry. I will work on the following part and post it as soon as possible. Thank you.

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?

Fei's Mooncakes

Fei is a Chinese guy at work who is socially awkward. He does not hang out with others, nor does he talk to anyone beyond “Good morning” and “How are you.” It’s not that Fei doesn’t want to: he’s unable to. But he would bring food to us as gifts – Chinese cakes, Chinese candies, Chinese snacks – for Lunar New Years and other Chinese festivals. That’s what people do in Asia as a way to maintain relationships. A social obligation. The Mid-Autumn Festival is near. No one at work besides me, another Asian, knows about this festival. Fei brings mooncakes, a type of round-shaped pastries, to work and gives each of us a box. The packaging looks gorgeous: a red square box with gold patterns depicting a lady dancing next to the moon. Inside is eight round pastries, about two inches in diameter. “Thank you very much!”, I say, as Fei hands me a box. Every day since, Fei comes over to my office and asks if I have tried the mooncakes. I have not, but I will soon, I tell him, feeling slightly guilty

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
