Like I posted before, that I planned to find penfriends to gain my knowledge about the world I'm living in. The time passes by. It's already (or only) almost 2 months from the first time I joined the penfriends' site. Now, I have some friends, maybe can be said many friends overseas. I have Japanese snail mail penpal, and some e-mail penpals. I never think to collect penfriends, but it's like addicted for me. I like to talk to someone about their countries and tell them about mine. I find it so interesting.
It feels adorable when I received the first letter from my Japanese friend. The letter took a month from her house into mine. Can you imagine?
E-mail is the easiest and the fastest way to have messages from my friends. How does it feel? It feels good also. I always am happy whenever I have the e-mail. Most of my friends are women, but there are also men. Until now, they are very kind and warm answering my e-mail. We asked about various things. We swap pictures also. Many of them don't know Indonesia well, they know Bali better than Indonesia :).
As time goes by, I lose some e-mail penpals. Feeling sad? Sure. I miss my Japanese e-mail penpal. She is a teacher too. She had been so warm and friendly, but one day, suddenly she didn't answer any of my e-mails. Despite of angry or upset, I am worrying her. Was there something happen to her, so she couldn't reply my e-mails? I'm just hoping she is fine and she will reply any of my e-mails someday.
Well, this kind of friendship is called "easy come easy go"...
You used English to talk with your Japanese penpal?
ReplyDeleteHope she's ok o.0
Yes, I do use English to talk to my Japanese and other penpal, since I don't know much about other languages :)
ReplyDeleteI mean...from what I heard...please note that this is from what I've heard, not that I'm being judgmental or something *coughcough*...most of Japanese are not really good with English x);;; But I guess that statement is not entirely correct then =)
ReplyDeleteOh, I see, I've heard about it also before, but recently, they go other countries to learn English and my Japanese penpals are having outstanding English in written (I've never chat with them) :)
