Mail! Mail! Mail!

Hello!Sorry for not posting anything here for such a long time. I was extremely busy preparing for my exams. Well, anyways I'm going to show the postcards and mail that I've received in the past few days.

First, a card from my pen pal Angie. She mailed it on the first day of the challenge (1st Feb).

Next, a New Year postcard from Aya which arrived just yesterday...

A card from my postcard pal Lily (Finland)

A postcard from Sharon (Mexico)

Next, a letter from my pen pal Heidi (Finland)

Postcard from my pal Bree ( Malaysia)

Well, my outgoing mail is very slow at the moment. I am trying my best to write back to everyone and I hope you all(my pals) will have enough patience to wait for my postcards and letters.What are you guys doing these days?

 I want to watch all the beautiful movies nominated for the Academy Awards but it's a pity that not all the movies are available in India at the moment.So, I have to wait for the DVD releases, though I was lucky enough to watch Life of Pi (last November) in the theater.

2013 mail

Hello everyone!! I am writing a post after a very long time and it's because I've been out of town. I came four days ago but did not get enough time to share my 2013 mail. So here's what I've got this year:

A card from my postcard pal (Poland) who blog at Got That Swing's letters 

  

Next, a Christmas card arrived in 2013 from my pal Ewelina (also from Poland)

Next, another Christmas card from Penny ( Brazil)

Letter from my pal Alex( USA) who blogs at 80sgirl

Letter from my pal L R McArthur (USA) along with a New year card she sent me

I have got letters to write and I'm finding it really difficult to manage my outgoing mail this month. I wonder if there's someone who is facing the same problem at the moment. How is your outgoing mail these days?

Postcards arrived

I know I haven't posted anything here from many days and that is mainly because I was busy with my exams as well as Diwali (festival of lights). But now I am back to share my mail.

First, a card from my postcard pal- Fab. This stamp is so beautiful and is definitely my favorite.

This card is from my pal Hwa in South Korea which shows girls dressed in traditional attire playing a Korean game( almost similar to see-saw).The dragon stamp glows in the dark. It's cool,isn't it?

 My postcard pal Ayaka in Japan sent this card which shows a glimpse of Gion festival and the Japanese she attached are so beautiful!

Next, a card from my Chinese pal Xiao who currently lives in Taiwan. He sent this when he was in China (a few weeks ago).

An official postcrossing card from a user in Finland

I have to catch up with my letters and am planning to finish my letters and postcards so that I can send them out before Sunday. What are you planning to do?
