penpals

Remember our last penpal post? Have you keep up with your penpals? Want to get new ones?

Do you know the feeling of getting mail (apart from bills and ads)? It makes me feel special, I love touching what the other person reserved some time making and sending, I like looking at it after and use it as bookmarks.

So, not only did you post that you love - reading, movies, eating (!!!), Ingrid Michaelson, Veronica Mars, Bones, Skins, and fruit salad, but you also live by quotes? Okay, that's it. I think we need to be penpals. :)

Haha of course! I never actually know how to fill out questionnaires like that without sounding really really weird or boring :P

Same! After posting my interests and whatnot, I re-read it and couldn't believe how lame I sounded.

Ah sweet. So how shall we tackle this? Would you like to write first? Or do you want me to? :)

I understand that you want only one penpal, but if you ever want a second one that can help out your english, let me know. We really have a lot in common. As in, everything, basically.

Hi :)
I just read your description and thought you were pretty interesting. I love how you know what you want and that you want to take your parents on a helicopter ride, that's really nice. Well, we might not share a lot of interests (when we reduce that to what I got to know about your interests in that little I've read about you now), but I also like the Percy Jackson series and would just love to be pen pals if it's ok for you that I'm only 18 because I always get super excited when I receive letters and know how good it makes people feel ( ... )

ARE YOU SURE YOU'RE ONLY 18??? lol

JUST KIDDING.

Why did you mention your age? I don't think I put an age requirement...

AWESOME! Let's be penpals! Who should start? You? Me? I don't care who! In fact, I could start writing during my lunch and tell you about the craziness that is my personal life LOL

Also, in these little 'describe yourself' boxes, I NEVER COVER EVERYTHING, LOL, so now I'm realizing I left out LADY GAGA as music love, or that I love writing poetry and photographing weddings or visiting museums and give/receive massages :D

I'm excited ^_^

Yes, I'm sure :D I know you didn't put up any requirements, but since you told everyone your age, I thought you should at least know what's my age :) And besides that, I've already met people who DID care about the age and didn't want to meet any younger persons.

You can start if you want and start writing during your lunch! Gosh, I'm so excited :D

So do I, Lady Gaga's really cool, although sometimes I need some time to get used to her songs, but her music is so extremely catchy!

Well, I'll send you my address in a PM :) I so can't wait!

I think I fit what you're looking for in a penpal :D I was sort of caught on the fact that one of your favourite books is "Luna" and also Harry Potter, not to mention all the lovely anime/manga you site as a interest :)

individual July 30 2010, 22:22:59 UTC
Ah, someone else who's read Luna! I love that book, and not a lot of people know about it.

I'd love to be pen pals! Would you like to send a letter first or would you rather I do?

sca_sethe July 31 2010, 00:02:26 UTC
Or what if we BOTH sent a letter XD

XP Which do you prefer?
