Happy Postcrossing! 

Few months ago, my English teacher told us to do a new project, “Happy Postcrossing”.  At First, I thought that it was a boring subject because I used to repel sending a postcard to a stranger, I considered that it was a meaningless behavior. I have been maintained the negative thoughts for a long time until I started to do this project.

First, I bought a beautiful postcard which has lots of pictures of Taiwan on it. Then I pressed an icon and got a long address from a young woman named Maria, who lives in Russia. I wrote her a few words and also asked about her country. What a fantastic experience!

Few months have past and I am still crazy for Postcrossing, although I just did the project once. I often talks with my classmates about it and I surprisingly heard that some girls have sent a lot of postcards but received nothing. I was ashamed that I only have sent one postcard but fortunately received two, which are from Malaysia and Brazil. I felt so excited and happy when I received them!

In May, we went to Taipei Jingmei Girls High School to appreciate their performance. When we chatted with their students, I was astonished to know that not only me and my classmates but also students in Jingmei were all playing this interesting subject. How surprised I am!

Now, I have already fell in love with this subject, I think I will send another postcard to a country soon. Happy Postcrossing!
