Craft paper cranes for Japan

 
 
According to old Japanese traditions, anyone who folds 1,000 paper cranes will be granted a wish. In response to the devastating earthquake and tsunami, DoSomething.org is sponsoring a Paper Cranes for Japan initiative. They want to collect 100,000 photos of origami cranes folded by youth across the globe to illustrate 100 wishes for relief and healing for those affected by the natural disaster.

 

The task is simple. You can either find a photo of an origami paper crane online or you can fold your own paper crane, snap a quick pic and upload that photo to the Paper Cranes for Japan Facebook page.

 

Ready to get folding? Watch the video below for an easy origami how-to…


 

Go big: Think about how many wishes you could send if you got your homeroom class, your entire grade, even your whole school involved. All you need is paper and a camera (or camera phone). Whatcha waitin’ for?

This is really nice! Not only that it benifits thoose who have been harmed by the tsunami, but its very sppecail nto me. My parents lived in Japan for 5 years on a U.S Naval Base and my older sister was born there. Last year My friend Victoria was dignosed with Lukemia, like Sadako after the atomic bomb was droped on Japan(though hers was not radiaation induced.Some kids at my school wanted to fold some cranes for her. we tried but the ended up looking like boats. Thank you so so so so so much for sharinging this.

pop749722, You think helping people in Japan is stupid? And guess what, trees are a renewable resource, it'll grow back. I don't know whether you just didn't actually read the whole article or-actually, you would have had to have known that this is to help Japan, because it says so in the title. Why do you think helping people in a country that's recently been ravaged by a natural disaster is stupid?

I'm not trying to be rude, just wondering why you are.

MOD MOD MOD!!
Now that my crush is taken (He asked my BFF out and she said yes), I have noticed that his best friend really likes me. I kinda like him back. He is soooo sweet to me. I live in his neighborhood and I want to casually tell him that mabye I'll "see ya 'round the neighborhood or something. Anyway i could sorta ask him?
P.S. My Bff being my crush's GF hasn't ruined our friendship, but it has ruined my crush's friendship. Now everytime he sees me, I avoid eye contact. Any way we could be friends again despite my broken heart?
