Hey folks! :) I have a lot of envalopes, stickers and future doodles that need to be used up. I had a penpal years ago but we're not so close anymore but I really enjoyed writing letters and getting to know that person. I was wondering if anyone would be up for that kind of thing. Before sending letters I'd like to at least get to know them a little first though, through messages or facebook or something, just so I know I'm not talking to a weirdo (no offence...) >___>''

Here's a bit about me if you're interested.

Obviously I like anime and manga, such as FMA, Ouran, Bleach, Naruto(ish), Wolf's Rain, Saiyuki, that sort of thing. I also like a lot of TV shows such as Supernatural, Dexter, Breaking Bad, Harpers Island, etc. I'm currently learning Japanese and I have a passion for animals. (Heads up, I'm also terrible at spelling xp).

More personal but basic things: I'm a 21 year old female and I live in England.

Please, for the love of god, no trolling or emo crap. Not to be mean, but I once had a penpal who lied about everything and her display picture was the self-harm cuts on her shoulder... -____-'' (by trolling I mean dont get in touch and spin me a bunch of bull stories).

Anyway, I just want someone to write too. Preferably someone with a sense of humour, I can be a bit strange sometimes xp

Hi Kimbob, I would be interested in a pen pal. It sounds like we have a bit in common. I also love FMA and Bleach and I just started watching Ouran (very funny so far). I am also learning Japanese and I love animals (that's why I'm vegan!).

Other stuff about me: I work in Retail, I'm about to buy a house with my bf and I hope to adopt a child from overseas in the next 8 yrs.

Feel free to PM me if you wanna chat more, or ignore me if I seem boring. Whatever. :D

Oh hey! I'm learning Japanese as well! Not to mention a debilitating weakness for cute stationery! You can search for me on Facebook via my e-mail: forevernekoYahoo.com :) I actually just stumbled across this post and I think it's a neat idea!

Ahhhh a fellow Brit, just curious did you go to the Telford anime expo today?
One thing about me is that I am a huge anime otaku at heart so collecting figures is kind of a part of me well depends if you call having 72 figures too many or something but to me they give the room a bit of decoration and doesn't leave it bland and sterile like it was before.

I wonder what I did with the rest of my envolopes that I had....ahhhh yes I remember now they're stuck in a wardrobe well to be more precise in a suitcase thats in a wardrobe. I used to write many many letters a couple of years ago. The only reason for stopping was the fact that something happened (won't say in public) but suffice to say it kinda ended the whole letter sending.

Anyone remember that site where Japanese people would hook up and become penpals with English people so they could both learn the language from each other? I used to talk to this guy who liked baseball

You mean this site (http://www.japan-guide.com/)?

I've had penpals over the years, but they never last long. Have fun searching for new penpal. :)
