letters.

March 10, 2010

"...and my breath catches in my chest until I hear three little words: You've got mail. I hear nothing. Not even a sound on the streets...just the beating of my own heart.
I have mail. From you."
-You've Got Mail

If you were to ask me on Monday what I love, I might have said Gossip Girl.
If you were to ask me on Tuesday what I love the most, I probably would have said bottomless fries at Red Robin.
But if you were to ask me what I love today, I'd have to say letters.

This is so adorable! Who doesn't love letters? They triumph emails by a billion.

Your envelope is so cute! I unfortunately don't know anyone on a mission to write to. But I get to meet them when they come back!

PS. Are you graduating this year?

I love letters. Nothing makes me happier than a mailbox full of letters and cards and parcels. Pure joy!

And I adore You've Got Mail. Love that quote!

I adore snail mail correspondence since I was a child (started corresponding with people when I was aged 11) it´s such a lovely feeling to open the mailbox and find a handwritten letter :)
