go get an origami book - learn how to make a wading bird of some variety - when you're having a meal and she gets up to go to the bathroom grab a napkin, quickly construct said wading bird and place next to her plate....
or perhaps make a proper one out of origami paper and give it to her/stick on front of home made valentines card....
Haha, I'm currently in the process of doing senbazuru...making 1000 paper cranes, to give to her on her birthday on the 27th of Feb. I started a week in to the new year and am sort of at the 500 mark so far. I should add that this is something I know she'll like. Personality wise we have very similar traits and she likes origami etc. Also she's told me a fair few times that 27 is her fave number and as a result this is meant to be an epic year, turning 27 on the 27th etc. I figure a good way to start it off is to try and get 1000 cranes in her room when she's not there...
That is dedication! Have you watched Heros? There is an episode where Hiro does that for Charlie (redhead who works in the diner).
