Happy Holidays and Kort Linden's Tea Motion

Wow...  When I saw the date that I last blogged, I almost fell out of my chair.  I had been so stressed out by the end of my semester that I think I rolled up into a ball and refused to come out once it is over!  I am writing from snowy Pennsylvania and I must say that it is wonderful to be home.  I will keep this brief since my internet access is limited, but I just wanted to wish all of you a happy holiday and great new year!  I will be in flight on my new years, but I will try to have a glass of champagne nonetheless! #1 on my new years resolution (aside from the obligatory "lose weight") is to spend more time blogging on here!

Although my announcement is a little belated, I received a message from a reader, Kort Linden, who created an origami stop motion video for an internship contest.  I gave it a look, and I think you will all appreciate it as much as I do.  I really love stop motion origami because it gives paper-folding a whimsical touch as it comes into being without the visual interference of human hands.  The paper cranes in this short video come to life from the wrapper of a tea bag... Now if only I could get my own paper cranes to come to life and pour me a cup!  Kort needs more views to promote his video, so in the spirit of the holidays, please send some his way and spread the word. It is a really cute and artistic inclusion of origami!
