What is it you want to talk about? (It can be an object, a piece of music, a story, a family tradition)<\/span><\/p>\n

-One family tradition that I want to talk about is origami, particularly making paper cranes with my brother.<\/span><\/p>\n

What is the story behind it?<\/span><\/p>\n

-When I was little, my brother always made paper cranes to entertain me when I was board or anxious. He later taught me how to make them, and I still do when I want to pass the time. To this day, I associate parts of my childhood with making paper cranes and other origami animals.<\/span><\/p>\n

What does it say about you, your family, or the associated people?<\/span><\/p>\n

-It is a random tradition, but I would say that some part of it stemmed from the fact that I had a rather lonely childhood. We were an immigrant family, so we never had any longterm connections or great friends, and I never had the opportunity to have a childhood friendgroup. As a result, I spent a lot time either by myself or with my family, so the things we did together left a lasting impression on me.<\/span><\/p>\n

How are you going to present this story? How are you going to engage the listeners throughout the podcast?<\/span><\/p>\n

-First, I would like to talk about the history of the paper crane and why it\u2019s such a popular piece of origami, as well as its symbolic significance in Japanese culture. Then I will discuss my personal experiences with making it and how it relates to my childhood and upbringing as an immigrant child. I think the two big themes that I want to explore in this project are nostalgia and loneliness.<\/span><\/p>\n

Do you plan to interview other people?<\/span><\/p>\n

-I\u2019m not sure, it\u2019s not necessary for my project. I could maybe talk to my dad and see what he knows about paper cranes in general, since he also has a fascination with them, but it\u2019s not crucial to the podcast.<\/span><\/p>\n
