Project Postcard Exchange - Those Lazy Hazy Crazy Days of Penpals!

[Sooks]

Chrissi There's no way to find out who gave you the pretty sticks/ community points, unless the person tells you they gave it to you. Sometimes, someone will say something about giving you a *pretty stick* and then you know who and why and you should see your number reflect that. Like now, I just gave you one to show you what I mean and because you're awesome!!!! Hope that helps!

I have been gone on vacation and feel like I have missed so much. I am working on making my postcard as we speak, I feel so behind    Hope to have it sent in the next few days    I have some great photos that i am using for it    I am so anxious to find out who my postcard penpal is!  Sounds like people are sending some pretty creative cards.  Hope the one I am making will be as great some of the ones mentioned sound.

I'm working on getting my postcard now. We have a town fair (not kidding) on Wednesday, so maybe there will be something there.

[Sooks]

Amy How was your vacation?! I hope that you're having a wonderful summer! It's SO good to see you! Whoever gets your postcard will love it, I know it!

roryappletarts Is your town fair like the Stars Hallow carnivals and fairs in the town square??

[trickyiu]

I just sent my Postcard as we speak!  I worked on it all day.  I cannot wait until they receive it! 

My vacation was fabulous and very relaxing, thanks for asking Mel.  Some lucky person will get to see some great photos from my vacation, b/c I used them to create my own postcard! 

Roryappletarts- Can I come to your town fair, sounds like fun, LOL?!!

[Chrissi]

@mel: i knew about that "pretty stick"  but no one told me he or she pretty sticked me that's why i'm confused.
thank you very much for your pretty stick you're awesome too!!!

EDIT
Today (07/03) when i came home from school i was in a very bad mood. like always i asked my mom "did i get a postcard today" (not expecting anything)...and she said: "No,you got 2 postcards" and i was like "WOW!!!2!!!"

Sooks and Marian I sent you guys a PM. I'll try to send yours out next week. The rest of this week I will be doing family stuff because it is July 4th.  I'm going to visit my mom and brothers so I will be out of town for a little bit.

Katy,  I'm so glad you were able to find some ORG penpals ... I hope it all works out. 

How exciting that people are beginning to receive their postcards!    This is the fun part.    I hope that people will come and post when their postcard reaches them.  That way we'll be sure that everyone is accounted for so no one is left out.

If you haven't sent your postcard yet, please do so by July 10th - your postcard pal will love it!   

Also, all of those who are worried that the only thing they sent was a postcard - don't!  That is completely and perfectly fine.

I have my postcards ready to send, but can't find the time to buy an envelope and stamps (lame excuse, I know, but I had exams and now I have to work). Hopefully I'll send the postcards this Thursday, so my postcard pal should be receiving them early next week.
BTW, I'm finally able to say that I'm going to L.A and San Diego for a couple of weeks in August and then to Durango, Colorado until February. Anybody around here who lives around there?

See ya all!

I just read this thread, and I love the idea, but I didn't read it in time to sign up . Is it possible to do another sign up period so that people that didn't read it in time can geta postcard pal?

Actually you guys, what some people are doing (our Sookie's idea) is getting postcard pals for themselves. The two of you could pair up and exchange address if you feel comfortable doing it... and are eligible to participate (see first page of thread)... it's up to you... maybe you can send a card to a person you already talk to and are familiar with, just so you don't give you address to "anybody"... you know? 

If this works out I'm sure the girls will be doing other events similar (we've already done secret santa)... you could wait for the "next edition" of Postcard Pal as well
