Why hello there!
Okay guys, I have something to admit to you all: I have never written a letter. I've never had a need too. I mean, I was born into the generation of technology. I only ever send texts to mi amigas and on rare occasions, an thank you email to an aunt for the annual Christmas pyjamas(yes, I still get them!).
But my friend has now gone off to a French college up in Galway were they were only allowed write letters(I know how medieval!) and I couldn't go three weeks without talking to her so I bought a couple of envelopes and a few stamps and set in my merry way!!!
To be honest, I only thought I'd do a couple of lines and then sign off because I thought I would get bored. But that wasn't the case!! The more I wrote, the more I got more into it and an hour and fifteen minutes later I had written over four pages.
I really enjoyed writing this letter. Because for once I actually sat down and thought about what I was going to say, instead of just taking two seconds to text saying whaddup gurrl. It felt a lot more personal and from the heart( ugh cringe line I know!!). And I know that my friend who is in French college will appreciate the letter as I know I will appreciate the letter she sends me.
I know this seems like a rather long winded blogpost, especially since its just about a letter. But if you think about it, when was the last time we ever actually sat down and wrote something to a dear friend or family member without any use of technology at all?
Tell me below if you ever write letters, postcards to anyone you know!!
See you guys soon Xx
