I could've stayed up all night long meticulously folding extra tiny squares of colorful origami paper in order to prepare them for my three-dimensional triangle making but I ended up quitting for the night around 4:30 am or so.

Those are individually folded sheets of paper. Not even triangles yet! I'm doomed to fold hundreds of painfully little sheets and it takes 3 folded sheets to make one single triangle!

That is what the finished product looks like. A tri-colored triangle [er, pyramid??]. I've placed my ring next to it so you can see how tiny it really is. At the rate I'm going in my craft, it will take me a year to do it all. I'm just kidding. Better late than never to start a summer activity, especially for a really bored girl like myself.

Once I've done my triangles, I'm moving onto something easier, which is folding those little stars that everyone knows how to do. I'd have started that first but I'd rather tackle the more challenging task.

tin doesn't have a wishlist//In other news, not gonna deny that I'm penniless and so with all those lovely August birthdays out there, each armed w/ an Amazon wishlist, let me just say that I would totally get each one of you special folks somethin' out of your lists [and I have browsed through them!] but I can't. You'll just have to settle for an *ahem* e-card from yours truly.

BUT hey, if I had adamantly stopped myself before indulging in a 2 week shopping spree last month, then Amazon would've shipped out some nifty little surprises to you via me.

You don't wanna know how sinful I was with the shopping, either ;)
