I totally want a pen pal. The snail mail type would be amazing, but I'm also a broke college student living with my dad, so maybe having to buy stamps every few weeks wouldn't be the best idea. I know they're not ridiculously expensive (sort of), but that's just how broke I am.
Anyway, I don't know, I've just always wanted one. And while I have friends from other states who I've talked to, it never lasts. That and they're netspeakers, meaning I can hardly understand what they're saying. I want someone literate, someone who I can talk to, someone who's willing to rant and vent along with me, to share the things they love in life, anything. Someone who I don't see on a daily basis. Someone who I can have some sort of strange connection with without it being one of these shallow ones I'm involved with in this stupid town.
Is that a weird request?
I've just been noticing so damn often lately that every person around here that I come in contact with (even willingly) is so much less than I expected. Maybe it's my fault for expecting, but I just can't help it. I don't know what happened. I guess I just heightened my expectations of life in general without even realizing it, and now the people around me just don't add up. Maybe I'm doomed to be either alone or unhappy...both? Anyway, this is really personal. I'm sure no one would ever want to write me after reading this. I promise I'm not angsty?
There's a community on here called dear_friend or something like that. It's for people wanting penpals. The only problem I've had is finding a penpal that will write regularly. For a while I had one that I would only trade music with and that was really cool.
ReplyDeleteThanks, I'll check it out. :)
