SENT ITEMS: Friendship Books and Penpal Letter to Netherlands

 These are a couple of friendship books that I made for myself. It's my first time to use those embellishments (which were sent I think by Jackie Moreno from a RAK). I haven't seen border stickers in my country, so I only use what I have in hand.

On the above picture, you can see the grainy picture of the fbs I made. Bottom is a much clearer one. (I just like the grainy pic)

As for this one, it's actually the items I sent for a swap called "10 Fbs". These are going to the USA. I have also added excess sticker bags as I know that they need to get on moving.

Here is my penpal reply letter to a friend in Netherlands. There's a long story on how we met :)) Hello M!

Those two postcards needed to get on rotation, so I sent that together in this letter. She was a participant. And, I've used a special "Mama Sita" souvenir sheet on the envelope.

As for this one, actually... they're excess bags and friendship books. They have been stuck with me for long, and need to get them on moving! There are lots of bags there such as

ATC Paper Bag, Surprise Bag, Sticker Bag, Memo Bag, Goodie Bag, Colour Bag, Label Bag, Nice Bag, Sticker Bag, and more I think...

Friendship books here..

I actually sent 14 fbs I think. The one with the Teddy Bear and the Halloween FB didn't got included.

I would also like to post the pictures when I sent them in their envelopes, but the pictures are in my dad's phone. Well anyways, the following were posted on May 17, 2013 - a Friday, at night time. But the post office was already closed, so it'll start its travel on Monday, May 20.

P.S. Any Asian FB swappers out there??

2 Map Cards in the Mail : Maine and Pennsylvania

Today's mail was unexpected. I wasn't expecting anything today.. until I saw the following two cards in the mail:

This postcard came from State College, Pennsylvania, and was sent by karry from a swapping site. 

She also sent an envelope filled with nine cards, and a notecard. They were so great! Got the latter one last Friday, April 26. karry just recently celebrated having 400 5's in the site, so she gave 3 envelopes of  10 postcards each! Really was nice, and thank you for matching the postcards in my profile ♥ ❤

Meanwhile, this awesome postcard was sent by Stacy for the Random Postcard Swap #17. 

I am currently collecting state map cards, sent from the state itself. Currently have 14, and today... received 2. Only 34 states to go!

Both of them got this round 2013 stamp on the card.

April 2013

Hello guys,

Just dropping by again. I kinda missed blogging about the mails and letters that I receive. There were loads of great, generous, friendly, people there who sent awesome mail.

I would love to scan out some cards, but the scanner and the laptop nowadays are sometimes unavailable. I mean, whenever I scan out, our laptop gets glitches. So I rarely do that now. I might use my phone to post out pictures here.

As of the moment, I would like to thank my penpals who have been palling with me for one year :)

• Roland Holm from Sweden
• Lisa Austria from Austria
• Kate from Russia
• Oksana from Russia

Oh, and there are three penpals that I do miss. 

One is Sarah from Canada, VANESSA SERRANO from California, USA; and HYEIN PARK from South Korea. I wonder what happened to you girls... 

I'm looking forward to the friendship we had.

What else, hmmm... 

I want to show to you the mails that I have been receiving. But yeah, when I'm able to blog, I'll go go go.

(What's on my mind recently...)

#OJT/Internship

#Australia

I hope I can finish all the mail obligations I have before May starts, so that I'll have a fresh new start :3

Cheers!

PS. Does any of you would like to experience or get friendship books? I have tons that need to pass out.  (ASIA and AUSTRALIA only) Just comment :)

Thanks!

I have received other interesting mail and cards too, but too bad, we won't be able to connect our laptop to the scanner. (due to wires)

I'll probably take pictures next time by camera phone.

Sailor Moon is one of my favorite characters when I was a young child. I have also dreamt of having long and blonder hair like her. Thank you nekorin for this card!

Cape May Point Lighthouse

Cape May Point Lighthouse is one of the most popular lighthouses in the United States. Thousands of visitors come each year to photograph this beautiful lighthouse. Photos: Richard Tamburri & Jim McWilliam

This lighthouse card is sent by CaptainSoul as one of his offer in the forum. He's so nice, that he sends cards to fellow postcrossers. I might collect lighthouses someday, not just at this point. Thank you Tito Ron!

I wasn't able to have the scans of their stamps. Tito Ron always has great stamps :3

I got a Hello Kitty card from the forum tag. It was sent by naosheep from Japan. Sadly, I wasn't able to scan this picture. Probably next time.

Neon Fantasy on Nathan Road.

This is a composite creation made up of many of the best neon signs on both sides of the harbour. Many of the signs represent some of Hong Kong's best restaurants and night spots. The street is real and is Nathan Road in Kowloon, also known as "the Golden Mile".

This one is from Gabi (Izmya).

She sent me one card from my favorites wall. It was favorited 10 times.

She also included two bookmarks, and two cute plasters... and that Simpsons sticker.

 - >Also got a penpal letter from Sweden.
