Well just finished work and am hanging was hanging around (decided to come home to have dinner) before going to the fireworks in Pusan tonight. Walking to the bus was a YBM Sisa group of workers doing promotion.

The girl says hello as does the guy. Turns out he was from Argentina but Korean so we chatted for a while. The girl wanting to speak English then started the usual barrage of innane questions. You know what they are no need to elaborate.

Anyways.... up comes some mother with her child and this girl 'orders' me to say hello to the girl. I do so but almost immediately after tell the girl 'I'm not your monkey.' We both laugh and I give her a chance.

Anyways, about thirty seconds later another mother comes up with her child and she does the same thing. Shocked

OK so I will be a monkey. I happen to work at a kindergarten and had some colored paper for origami in my bag. Also, I know how to make many things. So I pull out a piece of paper and start to make a bird that can like 'flap' its wings. Everyone is happy with the monkey.

Then I ask the YBM girl if she has 10,000 won so I can show her a trick. She doesn't but she has 5,000 won so I say that is okay. I fold it and fold it until it becomes very small and slip it between my fingers so that, like, by slight of hand, it dissapears.

Then I ask, "Are you being paid to stand here and talk to mothers?" to which she answers "Yes". Then I say, "Well now so am I, bye!"

I walked off leaving her standing there; I didn't look back so I don't know about her expression, and caught my bus.

I've been afraid to try �� with my 4-year-old class because I thought it was too hard for them, but here is a dog which they made today with very little difficulty.

I heard that someone tried to set up an origami factory in Fukuoka but it finally folded.
