...For my 3-D Design class we have to make a paper airplane.
I have never made a paper airplane. In fact, I stay away from origami as much as possible. Bad memories..
Kindergarten we had to make a jumping origami frog in class. I literally could not fold down the construction paper hard enough (seriously, I was that weak). The teacher then yelled at me and called me retarded in front of the rest of the class, because I couldn't do it. Well.. I say rest of the class, but the rest REST of the class was playing with the indoor toys, and I was the last student at the tables working.
I get sweaty hands doing origami ever since.
People have told me the jumping frog is more like a 2nd grade level origami, and it was wrong to make a kindergarten student attempt it, but everyone else in my class did it right. ._.; I mean, I probably WAS doing it right, but I honestly couldn't crease the paper.
Anyway. I tried to follow some instructions. It failed miserably. So I started making them myself. They look.. nifty? They look like these wide nosed hang gliders. Here is to hoping I did it right for class. X_x;
