I am loved:)

It may sound conceited to say that as a title but after completing two scrapbooks of memories, it's how I feel. I am so happy because up to date, I've been able to finish these two books and there are still other materials which I need ANOTHER folder to fill up with:) It's absolutely heart warming to look through them all. Sometimes it's difficult to paste them all in, having to glue or cellotape them or cut them to size. but it's really worth it once i've filled everything up. Sometimes I feel like it's such a task and "when will i ever finish this?" when i first started. But i didn't have to worry at all because it really filled up fast!

I keep tidbits, even chocolate wrappers when I get them under such a special occasion. I treasure small scribbled notes of "thanks" or "sorry". I paste in receipts of memorable moments, usually when it's with someone. I stick in cards i got for raya, for my birthday...

Most of them are paper material. I dont usually stick in photos because they are such a hassle to print out and cost much.

There are letters from my mom because she writes occasionally (she is my first penpal anyways). There's a letter from my dad which i've been nagging him to write and which he finally gave me after i persisted that I really want one for my graduation. There's abundant of letters from the elf. I think i've said this before but it's still so funny when I think about it. There were so many even though we sat next to each other in class for the few months she stayed in Msia; and she still posts letters even after she went abroad. There are also uncountable letters from Aki. with the korean writings and all the merepek kerepeks she writes; which i love:)


Nunu's poems are in there too; even the ones she wrote on exercise book paper, and lyrics she penned down on a ripped paper.. There are chitchats with iman, the one we used to write when we were in lower secondary; lots of them starting with "are u mad at me, iman?". hihi.

There are many drawings from Kausar, all of them beautifully drawn and meticulously made. Owh, also many drawings from Siraj and origamis he made. There are small notes from Fuddy with the "caaliya is so busuk" and from yaya. There's my driving license mark - showing that i passed.. Wishes for my exams and my future undertakings... My first ever official paycheck in black and white... There's that section where there are letter saying happy birthday because that year I requested for a letter for my birthday:P

There are a few printed emails; among them from my primary school principal. Hellos from Nina, all the way from Germany. There are Nurun's letters from Brunei. Eventhough i get them very rarely, the envelope comes in a bundle because when she writes, there are at least 4 pages in there. There are a few letters though which are heartbreaking. Some saying that i've changed, some which made me cry so much when i read them. But it still makes me smile now:)
I know emails are much faster and many can be sent at a time. But snail mail and handwritten notes/letters/scribbles (as i've mentioned before in a previous post) are always the best.

Make me happy. Write me a letter. Or scribble a small note. Even better, buy me a chocolate. Anything:) and it'll be pasted in my special super awesome scrapbook.
