Stationeries



Girls as girls can be collects stuff and like most girls I started collecting letter sets since 3rd grade and have been collecting ever since. Back then what was in were those letter sets of Beauty and the Beast, Cinderella and Snow White, well from Walt Disney that is and I've had my own set stashed away in my box of random something. Hehehehe so every time I pay a visit to a bookstore apart from going home with a book or two I also take along a letter set or two sometimes three depends really on what catches my fancy.
I used them to write my letters for my pen friends worldwide even though I have a printer and quite well verse with Microsoft Word it seems more personal to me when letters are written by hand. So if you check my drawers you'd see one level full of pens in various colors some plain other glittery and two or three levels full of letter sets another one a stack of various postcards ready to send away.

Letters


Am a fan of letters literally, I mean I love to write and to correspond with people from all over the world and then swap postcards and stamps when applicable. Started the hobby of snail mail and penpals when I was still in high school, it was fun. I get to correspond with girls from Asia, US and Europe, they sent me all these really nice postcards from their countries as well as cute calling cards. Quite a variety actually and they're all nice and colorful.

Somewhere in college I stopped not because I wanted to but because of financial constraints, postage to Europe and the US increased quite significantly and with my needs in school, books, projects and all that I stopped for a couple of years.

But now am back for good. It's a hobby I somehow can't outgrow.
