In the article I wrote a few days ago about finding pen pals, I unexpectedly met a lot of pen pals, and I was so happy that I felt a little overwhelmed, haha. There are girls who are professional like me, there are girls who like writing as much as me, there are girls who like painting as much as me, there are girls who have similar interests to me, there are also many who want to find pen pals, and there are many, many like-minded people who are eager to make progress. I am really happy to see that everyone is more interested in pen pals. Let me tell you about pen pals in detail.
Pen pals are different from net friends. They are a way of conveying feelings through words. They can enrich our lives, expand our horizons, and at the same time give our messy minds a place to rest. It is actually the object of our soul confiding. In front of a person we have never met, we can tell the stories in our hearts that we don’t want to disclose, the depressed things in our hearts and even the details in our lives.
If you choose to be a pen pal, you cannot chat every day through WeChat or other dating software (it is recommended to delete the contact information after receiving a letter), otherwise the meaning of pen pal will be lost, of course. That's okay.
First of all, there are two ways to contact pen pals: one is online by sending emails, and the other is offline by sending letters. This depends on personal preference. I won’t talk about sending emails, but everyone generally knows how to do it. Let’s mainly talk about sending letters offline.
1. First of all, envelopes can be bought at stationery stores, as long as they are produced by the post office. An average-sized one is fine, and other letter paper depends on personal preference.
2. You can fill in the information after writing it. Be sure to remember that the handwriting is clear and the postal code must be written in the corresponding position. If it is not clear, it will affect the speed of mailing.
3. When filling in, the recipient's address should be written in the upper left corner or in the middle, but the sender's address must be written in the lower right corner. You can use a pen name for your name, and your mobile phone number can be written or not.
4. When it comes to affixing stamps, there are different prices when buying stamps. You can choose different stamps according to the distance between the two places. If it is relatively far, you can affix a few more. This depends on the situation.
5. When sending a letter, you have to go to the post office, not express delivery. You can also send it by express but it is not required. Just choose regular mail, or you can choose EMS (which is faster). You can also send registered mail, which is similar to express delivery (the letter can be tracked) but you have to pay a registration fee. Some schools have mailboxes (green tubes), and you can just put the stamps on them.
PS: If you go to the post office to mail it, there will be a postmark, which the post office will stamp for you. There is one when you receive it and another when you send it. The postmark is different in each place.
6. Generally, you will receive a letter after sending it, but the time may not be certain, but it will be received faster if you are close to the place. You can judge based on the time.
Some people may like the feeling of writing a letter as much as I do, the wonderful feeling of opening a letter, looking at the handwriting affected by the mood and the letter paper that has yellowed with time. Feel. Writing letters is actually a way to trace traditional culture. Like the recently popular Hanfu, I hope everyone can experience the wonderful feeling of writing letters.
Of course, there are also some people who choose to send emails due to work or other matters, and that is okay.
Pen pals communicate about life. We can talk about our troubles and talk about topics of mutual interest to us. Of course, in addition to sending letters, I hope you can also send some paintings, calligraphy, and other things based on your interests, hobbies, or expertise.
Finally, I hope you can find your pen pal and choose a friendly friend. If you want to be a pen pal with me, I am very happy. I am a girl who likes to make friends and like to write. Attached is the picture I wrote before.
ps: I am going to write a letter to friend Jian recently. You are welcome to send me a private message.
