Story time: So last year [I think, may have been two years ago] the Dance Club at my school put on the annual Dance Show. We held it at one of the elementary schools because the HS auditorium was being used that night. Well for various reasons, most of which being chaos and panic throughout the 100+ people there for HOURS before the show, I started to seriously stress/freak out.
So I went into one of the first grade rooms and found some paper and coloring supplies. I grabbed some graph paper and markers and just started making patterns. My stress was immediately alleviated and I became as calm as a cucumber, breathing deeply and thinking about nothing except whatever box I happened to be coloring. So that became my 'thing'- my stress reliever. I bought a set of sharpies and a stack of graph paper and went crazy, sharing my amazing phenomenon with as many people as I could [aka 2 of my cousins I stayed with over the summer].
I forgot about it for a while until recent events got me all stressed and tensed up again. Thus, I have begun generation 2 [begun Wednesday]. Behold:

I miscounted so it didn't quite work out the way I wanted it to and came out kinda sloppy.

Would've been amazingly perfect if only I hadn't finished it in a semi-dark auditorium...slipped up on the bottom right 2 triangles...oops. And please don't tell me it looks like the British flag lol, 2 people have said that today.
