"So what is the weather going to be like tomorrow, what do people think of you, does that boy really like you? Hi my name is Robert Segundo and I'm going to show you how this piece of paper can tell you those answers. What we are going to do here is we are going to make a paper fortune teller. What we are going to do is we are going to take our piece of paper and fold it diagonally like so. As you can see it is already pre-creased so we are going to open it up and fold it diagonally like so again, open it back up and now what we are going to do is just take our corner points and just line them up and fold them on the inside like so, go all the way around and line them up. Now what we are going to do is flip them over and do the same thing, take these points, line them up, there you go and of course this is the point and each one of these little triangles is where you are going to write your fortune so we are going to say awesome and then what you do is you number them, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight and now what we are going to do is we are basically just going to fold this into a triangle and this is the point where it becomes hard because basically you have just got to fold all your points in, fold it like that and so you are going to grab this triangle here and the same thing you are going to grab this one and force them in and of course these are your hand holds here, pop those hand holds out like so. There you go. Then of course you write your colors here, you do red, blue, green, orange and you do r e d if they choose it, three, three, one, two, three and then of course choose number two which says awesome as you already know."
