today i finished my cranes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! whoo hooo, i was so excited as i folded the last few cranes. my friend kim came to my apartment to see the cranes and to take some photos. for the last crane i picked out a bright yellow (my favorite color) hello kitty paper. i wrote my wish on the inside of it and was so giddy as i made the final crane. then i started to string together the rest of the cranes. i had 9 sets of 40 that were not strung together so i finished the day doing that.
i feel really happy to have met my goal of 1,000 paper cranes (and in 23 days at that!). i think it's a pretty crazy thing to do but am really happy to have completed my 1,000 paper cranes. next i will carefully package them up and airmail them back to oregon where i will figure out how i want to display and hang the strings of cranes. i am looking forward to showing everyone my hard work once i am home! i will never, ever forget how to fold a paper crane.
YAY!!!

Noellie,
You did it! You did it! I knew you would and I hope you're very proud of yourself for accomplishing this goal. I was in a small gift shop and saw packaged single paper cranes selling for $4.95 each! Pretty crazy. They were beautiful and so are your cranes!
I can't believe you're coming home is less than a week. YIPPIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Love and miss you and love the cranes!
