From: Courtney, USA.

This amazing letter was from a swapbot user (@courtneyanne) for the "*happy quotes*" swap. The moment I opened the letter, I knew I was in love. The decor that caught my eye was the one that said "take only memories, leave only footprints".. NOT really because of the quote itself, but because of the fabric leaves and owls!!! Kawaii desu. Her efforts for this swap put me to shame (for mine). From now onwards, I vow to put in 101% effort in all the swaps I do!!! Not that I didn't previously..

Thank you Courtney~ ^.^

From: Jasmine, Australia.

I got this kawaii mystery letter from @olivewasabi from instagram. She sealed the envie, before posting a photo on instagram asking if there was any takers. SoOoOo it was kind of a "mystery" letter for a random pereson (me). I was so happy when I saw the letter lying in my mail box.. SO CUTE!!

I even got an owl bookmark from her :-)

I got this from a swapbot user (@elanorc) for the "Happy Mail - ASIA" swap. This letter definitely made my day :-)

I'm really lucky to have received from her.

Postcards and update

Hello!! I've received 2 postcards yesterday.

#13

Dated: -

Received: 4/6/2013

From: Rifa, Indonesia.

This postcard was from a direct swap with instagrammer @rifarafikong. I loved everything about the postcard!! I didn't even tell her I liked Sponge Bob but she gave me a pop-up sticker of Sponge Bob!!!!! Thank you so much. ^.^

#14

Dated: 26/5/2013

Received: 4/6/2013

From: Jin, Korea.

This was from a direct swap with instagrammer @fromdahl. She posted a picture of the stamps, asking if anyone wanted them. They're SO cute, I couldn't resist. When I received them, I wasn't disappointed (cox you know, sometimes things look different when compared to in real life). I also loved the cute penguin couple stickers she used. (=^.^=)

Update: now that my exams are over (which means the holidays are here), I HAVE TOO MUCH TIME ON MY HANDS!! I hope my penpals' letters get to me soon, so I can start replying them. Also, I went on a rampage shopping spree and I spent close to $100. May we have a minute of silence to grieve over the departure of my sanity? Thank you.

Hello!! My common tests are finally over and now I have all the time in the world (to do whatever I want). Thus here I am, writing this blog post, keeping track of all my incoming and outgoing postcards/letters.

All of these are either from

direct swaps (with people on instagram)

Dated: 5/5/2013

Received: 7/5/2013

From: Angela, Singapore.

I got this postcard from a swapbot swap, entitled "Little Things PC Swap #8". We were supposed to write about things that make us happy. I guess you can say that this picture fits the theme pretty well!! (^.^)

Dated: 6/5/2013

Received: 10/5/2013

From: Napasorn, Thailand.

This postcard was from a direct swap with instagrammer @tothesky_bluesky. I loved the picture as much as the colourful letter she wrote for me. (=^.^=)

Dated: 6/5/2013

Received: 14/5/2013

From: Nicole, Malaysia.

This postcard was from a direct swap with instagrammer @nicolecyt. This came as a surprise because since I didn't have any preference, she helped me decide on the postcard. I was definitely not disappointed with the postcard. Her handwriting is also the cutest thing I've ever seen!!

Dated: 5/5/2013

Received: 21/5/2013

From: Liana Chouw, Indonesia.

This postcard was from a direct swap with instagrammer @lchouw. She posted a couple of postcards up on her IG and I shamelessly asked for the SUPERMODEL one. I really like this postcard because it reminds me of the elements on the periodic table (maybe it's because of the number at the corner). Also, I didn't have much of a choice because most of her other postcards of similar theme were already taken by other people. She also pasted cute stickers generously!!! (>v<)

Dated: 14/5/2013

Received: 21/5/2013

From : Anika, Germany.

This was my first postcard from swapbot from another country!! Not to mention, the distance between Germany and Singapore is roughly 14,000 km!!!!! *gasp*

I was really excicted when I received this postcard!!! I really loved Anika's long introduction to the small town she's living in. It sounds like a wonderful place. I would definitely include it in my list of To-Travel. Heheh, and she left a nice message for me. Ooooh, and I love her washi tape too!! (^v^)

#6 and #7

Dated: -

Received: 22/5/2013

From: Ana Isabel, Portugal.

This postcard was a RAK (random act of kindness) from a user on swapbot. I loved everything about this postcard!! The stamps were absolutely adorable and she also generously pasted lots of cutesy stickers. I LOVE!! (=v=)

Dated: 8/5/2013

Received: 22/5/2013
From: Danielle, Brazil.

This postcard was from a direct swap with instagrammer @daniellepec. I love her explanation about what was going on in the picture.

Since I received both postcards on the same day and the postcard from Portugal wasn't dated, I am unable to identify which is #6 and #7. (>_<)"

Dated: 13/5/2013

Received: 27/5/2013

From: Liisa, Finland.

This postcard was from a fellow postcrosser. I really loved this cute/pastel themed picture. I really appreciate that she read through my profile before choosing this postcard for me.. <3

The stamp she used was beyond lovely.

#9 and #10

Dated: -
Received: 28/5/2013
From: -, USA

I absolutely love this postcard!! This postcard was from a swap entitled "Hello Stranger PC #5".

Dated: -

Received: 28/5/2013

From: -

This postcard was from a swap entitled "Arty Theme PC Swap #1". This picture fits the theme to the T!!

Like PC #6 and #7, I have no idea which of these postcards arrived first, therefore I am unable to pinpoint which postcard is #9 and which is #10.. (T_T)

#11
