Snail Mail Vs Email

Though almost everyone has accessed to internet and hence, email, I always prefer receiving "snail mail" rather than email... Waiting for one from a really nice friend now... Hope it will reach my letter box soon. =)

Writing in a letter takes a lot more effort than to type out an email. When you wrote something wrong, you can't just press on the the "delete" or "backspace" key from the keyboard... Many of the times, one will need to rewrite the entire letter again if only some parts of it is found unsatisfactory... I remember that in tv programmes and movies, you can always see a waste paper basket beside the person writing a letter and pieces of crushed paper on the floor. Thats the pain of sending snail mail or should i say, that reflects the effort put in when writing a letter...

As I grew older and got busier, I seldom see greeting cards and letters in my letter box. What a pity... Well, people ard me are getting busier too... Internet has made everything easier by creating e-cards, emails and e-"everything".  I guess people just spent so much time in front of their computer and therefore, everything else is created to make accessible thru the internet. On thing to add... I hate e-cards (not the sender. =p) cos you will realise that most of them will self-delete after around 2 weeks... Tsk...

Can't blame the internet or any of my friends... Maybe its I who never put in much effort in keeping friendships... That might just explain the receding numbers of cards and letters in my letter box... Miss the feeling of reading from real, hard copy letter... =p

Guys out there... If you are sincere in going after a girl... Dun send e-cards or emails to her... Always send "hard copy" thru snail mail... =p
