Ha, written letters. Man, I miss getting those...not that I'm that old (It wasn't that long ago).
It just that my younger sib, doesn't even know how to head an envelope properly and I'm like: WHAT!? scream
He is: "Yeah, so what if I don't know. I can just e-mail people."
emotion_facepalm
I love getting handwritten letter and sending them. I make my own stationary!
But my sib, nope...
...Blah... mad
Anyway, nice to know that not everyone is on those sites...I feel so much better.
I thought I was alone with my "old fashion" ways.
hm...I emotion_bigheart playing around with these icons.

@ Lioness: I prefer writing letters, actually. E-mail is is just so lazy, and there's no skill in it- Other than you can change your font, add colour, and insert a picture and what not. With letters, for me, it's more personal. You're actually taking the time to write something to them; Doesn't matter what it would be, because you're actually putting thought into it. Not just that, but you can sometimes feel the person's sincerity- At least I can. I love writing letters. I write letters to my girlfriend all the time, I like writing letters to my best friend Dani, and I've even been thinking about writing a letter to my other best friend Franky (I've mailed letters out of the country before, but never to Puerto Rico so I'm not really sure how it would all work. I'm pretty sure it's like mailing a letter out of state, or something? I don't know.)

Styk: i dont know what to say, i am sorry to offend. I have laid of on the clunky "bloody"s and stuff, and i am not really trying to emulate a normal british person. I hear keith richards talk and i go "thats what skotti sounds like" because, lets face it, skotti is not just some dude, he is suposed to be animated and outrageous. I do chill with english people though, i know, and talk to at least 4 every day, so know that i am not just some dude watching "the mighty boosh" and beliving that is what england is like. I am not really emulating brits, but i am emulating the over the top british rock stars.
But still, terribly, terribly sorry broham

I agree, I feel much the same way about writing letters. I don't get to write them often and when I do I tend to write three pages worth. Still it is nice to see when I get a letter back, I feel such a buzz like a Christmas present.
As for mailing letters outside of the US, I'm not sure myself. I know that for me, I just need to pay extra for the stamp. Canada is quite similar to US in that sense. At least where I am.

@ Skotti: It's ok, I understand now, Man. Like, I knew you were basing him off of that but I didn't realize that you weren't trying to be offensive about it- Like generalizing, and stuff. Y'know? So, I'm cool about it all now. I forgive you, Agent Nancy!
@ Lioness: I know, right? I feel the same way; It is like getting a Christmas present! Each time I get one, I just get so excited! And the anticipation itself is amazing! Like, you know it's coming but you don't know when it'll get there!
I knew you had to pay extra for the stamp, and everything, but I didn't know that!
So, are you from the States? Or are you from Cananda?

I know a girl that lives in Waterloo,. . . Ontario? I think? I don't remember, but I know she lives in Waterloo. She's a pretty cool girl.

Waterloo, that is about an 1h30min's away.
Which isn't that far, though I hate driving there. Busy roads and all.
Plus Toronto is better!

Not much, actually. My parent's believe in home schooling, so I'm basically let off to do as I please.

High School?
You mean Secondary?
Yeah, I was taken out for the last two years, so I'm in 12th grade I guess. My parents believed that I was being held back and that the environment wasn't meant for me. Personally I think they were just too lazy and didn't want to have to handle picking me up. All I have to do is the online assignments and stuff, then I'm free!
Which means I'm bored most of the time.

Well, that's cool, I guess! Minus the bored part! On the bright side, it means more time to kill hanging out on Gaia! biggrin

@ Nari: :'D IT'S YOUUUUUUU!!!! [Huggles tightly]
In High School I never considered 'Writing' as homework, because I loved it too much. Even writing letters to an assigned Pen pal across the world wasn't an "assignment"- Actually, I'm still really sad that I lost touch with him after I started going to a new school. D;
OH! biggrin So, Nari! This is Lioness; One of our newest members! biggrin Lioness, this is Nari! One of my good friends! D< Nao be friends!
