I love getting mail. Yesterday, I got a letter from my pen friend in Germany. We have been writing to each other for many years. We started writing to each other when I was in 8th grade Spanish class. I know you are probably thinking Spanish and I have a German friend, how does this work. Well, we got to choose anywhere in the world where we wanted a friend from and I choose Germany. So I got a female friend by the name of Janine, but the same day I actually washed her address when I washed my school clothes. I was so upset that I had to be so stupid, to wash my pen friends address. But, in a month I got a letter from Germany and it was from a girl by the name of Janine. I was super excited, I riped the envelope open so carefully so I did not ripe the her address and we have been writing ever since.
So, I am 31 and we have been writing since I was in the 8th grade, so it has been, well, a long time, and I will allow you do to do the math. It is amazing that we are still writing to each other. Many would have stopped writing within the first 5 years because everyone has such busy lives, but for me and Janine, we keep in touch pretty regularly. I am always super excited to get a letter from her..
She got married in August, and she made a beautiful bride. Don't you think???
I enjoy writing to my pen friend and hope we keep writing to each other for many years to come.
