When I was younger I had a pen pal, in China. I was around 8 or 9. My pen pal was a little younger. My teacher said that some kids over in China were trying to learn to speak and write Chinese and we could help them learn by writing to them. We wrote to each other for years. The last letter I received from him said that he was moving and that he didn't know where. He said once he got there he would write me so that I would have his new address. I never received that letter. I wonder what happened to him? I miss running to the mailbox daily looking for his letters. sometimes there would be 2 or 3 at a time. I loved it! That's back when postage stamps weren't 3.00 apiece. Anyway, I miss receiving mail other than these fucking bills.
Did you have a pen pal? where were they?

1 had something to say:
I did have a pen pal a long time ago, when I was a teenager. Damn, I can't even remember her name...but she was in Jamaica. We wrote for a few years. It was always so exciting to get letters from her because we wrote kinda sporadically. Our house burned down and we lost everything and I honestly don't remember ever hearing from her again after that. I wish I could remember her name and I do sometimes wonder where she is and what she's doing.
