    Does anyone here have a "pen pal"? You know, where you actually write a letter to someone else regularly using snail mail instead of e-mail. I write regularly to a few friends and find it relaxing writing to an old friend. :slight_smile:

    I used to when i was in primary school. One of my teachers went over to Canada to teach so my class (her class before she left) wrote to her class over in Canada. Twas fun, but i can't remember who i had to write too.

    Twas fun though. :grin:

    It seems I've always had penpals. It started in elementary school. I'm lazy now and e-mail instead of actually writing them out. I sponsor two kids in Ghana that I need to write to. (puts that on my to-do list) I have been horrible about writing to them. It would be so much easier if they had e-mail. :slight_smile:

    wow Mom, kids in Ghana? now that just outdo's my community service project :grin:

    i used to do PenPals but that is sooo Primary school when our teachers used to tell us to write letters to someone abroad where 1/2 of the class would never get replies.

    at first i never did but i always wonder if it was my humour, lack of computence to spell or it just never got there:eusa_eh:

    I want one. But then I get this feeling that I will be the one who suddenly stop writing back blaming busy days:dry:

    Someone who can kick my ass if I stop writing back would be perfect for my penpal:slight_smile:
