Deep Letters Correspondence Project


Just an update! I'm so glad that you guys are joining my project! The deadline for signing up will be January 10th, 2013! I want to give you plenty of time to enter if you haven't already!


Hello there, from chilly Sacramento! How is everyone tonight? (I still need to post that video...urghhh.). I've got a treat for you tonight! I've decided to launch a new project called 'Deep Letters'. It's a letter exchange with a twist! How do I explain this? Hmm...Well, it's obviously for exchanging deep letters!

What do I mean by 'deep letters', you ask? Well, in my head it all makes sense, but I'm not sure how to describe it. This exchange is geared towards those of us who suffer from emotional or psychiatric issues! I've always found that it is much easier to confide in someone who has similar 'problems' (I prefer to call them quirks!) as me, so this will hopefully link you up with someone who is looking for that same deep friendship that I am so glad to have in my life already! Does any of that make sense?

Anywho, this project will concist of a few prompt ideas to nudge you in the right direction, but you have full reign over what you want to tell or hold back! Send what you like, write about you like, and open up to someone who will understand. :) You could talk about something like a rough break up or (like me.) talk about disorders that you get through each day!

So yes! There it is! I'm going to leave it open for joining until we get a few people, but if you're interested, please email me (email in sidebar.) with the following form filled out!

What's in my bag?

Yup, title says it all! Ya'll get to see what is in my purse! Now on to the photos! oh wait, there are none! I MADE A VIDEO! Can you believe it? ME. Making a video. Crazy right? But anyways, here it is! Please don't mind the quality or how not nice I look! OH! And I've randomly jumped on the Twitter and Instagram bandwagon! (Late, as usual.) Follow me! Links are in the side bar! Oh damn. I am so irritated with myself right now. I recorded the video sideways. Well, I guess you'll get a video next time! :/

One, two, three, HIATUS BE GONE!


I AM ALIVE! And it is 6:15am, haha. Haven't slept yet! Oopsies! And I'm currently Whatsapp-ing with one of my besties from Austria! Anywho, I have been SERIOUSLY slacking on the whole mail post front! Argh! I promise there won't be many more hiatuses in this blog's future! In fact, I'm in the beginning stages of planning a very specific letter event (not a social, an organized exchange event, haha.)as well as some more non-mail related posts and bits and bobs of my own life!

In fact, I just now (no, seriously, JUST NOW...) decided to show off a few daily life photos! Please try not to pass out at the site of my bedroom! My bedside table is where I keep supplies that I need all the time and after I post this, I'll be doing an overhaul on it! (I need to kill time before the Dollar Store and Post Office Opens so I can go and buy stamps and packing mailers!

My view from where I am sitting! SO MESSY!



My mess of a bedside table...Perhaps there will be a before and after photo? haha.



Aaaand my new baby! A new handbag! Gotta love Black Friday deal! It was super cheap!



OKAY! Enough blabbering! MAILLLLL TIIIIIME! I'm afraid I got a bit caught up in work there for a bit(preparing for the holidays...retail....) but I'm back and ready to scribble!

So...without further adieu...Outoing! Small, I know, but I forgot to photograph a phew...

To Miss. Arwen! :D



Green robo-aliens off to Bee!



And last but not least! Air mail to Sarah!



Now for the incoming....DRUMROLL PLEASEEEE....

Kiki! And look at what she sent along in another package! She knows me SO well! I'm in the middle of picking out goodies to send her. :) Air mail envies, brown kraft envies, washi tape bits, labels and...wait for it...HELLO KITTY TAPE!





THE TAPE AND ENVIES! I may or may not have just drooled.





RIGHT?! Most cutest thing ever?!

Check out this gorg envelope/packet Coby sent! It's BEAUTIFUL! I love the papers she chose and all the creativity! Makes me want to give it a go!



Details?! And stamps! SO PRETTY!



Le back!



The stamps...



You thought that was all, too? Outside of the awesome letter she enclosed...she also sent me a postcard! AND she was kind enough to put a little dot next to where she lives! :D



Here's a lovely note from Loulou! I expect that by the time she gets my reply, she'll be a new momma! You know what that means...an excuse to go baby clothes shopping!!!



Look what she sent me! A LUCKY PENNY!



Next is from my beloved Jojo!



Check out all the goodies! She she sent me one of the neatest, prettiest Friendship Books I've ever seen! I won't be showing that though for her privacy. :)



Celine! I have to say, her name is definitely on my list of top favorite female names! :) And I LOVE her Disney stationary! The tea she sent along looks interesting, too! I've never been a fan of green tea, but it looks rather fancy so I think I'll give it a go! haha.



A lovely letter with a SUPER colorful postie and a cute magnetic bookmark!



Stamps! :D



And last but CERTAINLY NOT LEAST....a SUUUUPER colorful letter from Elisabeth! I squued a bit at the mailbox when I pulled it out!



Well! That's it for today, folks! I've got some more stuff to do today and I want to clean up my cave (as my parents call it...) a bit before!

Guilty as charged!

I haven't even had time to take photos! GASP! Anywho, off to hit up the 24 hour Walmart for some holiday present supplies! (at 1.am....) Hiatus will be over asap!
