Judging from the pictures you've posted on your flickr, I'm not sure if you're really ready for license to fold. It has some quite complex models in, that require good folding ability and plenty of artistic style. You should try to keep improving your ability folding from free diagrams online, and then maybe you could start buying/recieving books

.
I hope I haven't offended you.

nope it simply means that she hates you. you shouldn't be in range when she has a sharp tool in her hand... or REALLY BAD THINGS will happen.
by the way: I would like to get her number too, since she will surely recognize that Angry is too angry for her and she really needs a handy puppet with no selfrespect.. and thats surely me

Dont think too highly of yourself now Chris
but dont be upset that you cannot get the book now. Maybe you can get the book for Christmas/Hanukkah?

Yeah, some of the models in the book are pretty hard... I'm thinking Swordsman and Eagle
But don't be discouraged, many of the models in the book are not too hard. For example the Terry stuff.

well my flickr can be deceiving i think because all my good models have been given away but i have folded langs acrocinus longimanus and satoshis pegasus and chocobo you didn't hurt my feelings but yes my flickr looks a little childish i guess ill just buy it by myself then
sorry she doesn't really have a billion dollars i was exaggerating but u guys probably know that
by the way what is so hard about the eagle the cp looks pretty much just like box pleating

You could clean somebody else rooms for money anyway. Not for a year if you want, just to get the money for the book

Or, you could ask your parents, or give your friends some money and ask them to order it, but pay them to do it

Oooorrr, get your sister to drive you to B&N, Borders, or some other book store that might carry it..

I can assure you that no regular bookshop will carry it.
