... yet that I am writing my paper which is due for monday (18 pages to go... eeek!) and am having lots of extracurricular activities to do NOW.
I have finished three letters on the train today though and will take pictures soon, so sometimes next week (probably after the presentation which is on wednesday) I will show you some mail photos :) I'll also post the mail stats for March (finally...).
Take care! And thanks for the patience...
Alles Liebe,

Lots and lots of pretty mail
Hello... I had written this a few days ago, but I had absolutely no time to add the pictures and post it. Here it is, finally.
Hello guys,
so, as I promised earlier today, here's my incoming mail from the last week. I was surprised at how much I got!
I came home from skiing on saturday night so I did go to check my P.O.Box in the early morning on sunday. I found so much!
The first thing to see was this package I got from Laura!
She surprised me with a lovely letter, some nice stickers, and above all, a really cute letterset! Isn't she an adorable girl?
I also got a letter from Jennifer, who now already went to Germany. I will be sending her reply to the UK, but since she's not home anyways for 10 days or so, I don't have to stress me with replying haha.
Next on the stack was a nice letter from F., my spanish-speaking pen pal from Italy. She used some Diddl-paper. Do you guys like Diddl-paper? Because I still have LOTS of different sheets. I used to collect them when I was in primary school and we would swap in class. I think I have like maybe 100 to 200 different ones. I never counted ;-)
I also got a postcard from L.
I got two postcrossing cards, too, one from China and one from Taiwan.
Don't they just have lovely stamps?
Another thing which didn't arrive to my P.O.Box, but to our mailbox were the postcards I sent my boyfriend from Turkey. FINALLY! They told me at the post office that they'd be here in a week... well, let's call it a month :)
That was all the mail I got on sunday. But monday also was a very good mail day! I had asked a friend of mine to check my P.O.Box on thursday and he did and gave me all the fun mail that I had gotten until then in class. The other students who were sitting around me were all "ooooh" and "aaaah" and "look at that!". Hehe.
I got this letter from Stephanie in the US.
It was filled with lots of great goodies! A long chatty letter, some magazine-articles and my first FB! Thank you so much Steph, a reply is on it's way to you!
I also got another letter from Laura. It's amusing, because our letters always seem to cross in the air.
I got another postcrossing card, this time from Russia. I always waited to receive a postcard like that from Russia, and finally, here it is!
I also got mail from people I didn't know before, but who found my address on the Good Mail Day - Blog.
This AMAZING postcard from Brittany. I wish I'd be that talented!
I also got a letter from Mandy, who seems to be very creative, too!
So, that was the mail I got while being away for a week. Quite a lot, don't you think?
I hope you are all having a great week! What are your plans for the easter-holidays?
Take care and
alles Liebe,
Caddi

Just a little reminder...
Later on I will do a post with lots and lots of great mail I received the past week (why is it that whenever I am away I get a lot of mail and when I am home and not on holidays it seems like I don't get anything?), but yet that I am still in University and most of the mail is at home, I just wanted to remind you to take part in this project from Burst of Bubbles. I know that really many of you read her blog (or maybe also this one) and enjoy the presents she sends out to make our day, so please take the time, write an indroduction letter and send it to her :) If you want one potential pen pal more, that is.
Even though the 31st of March is already over, I can imagine that you still can hop in without problems...
It's very easy:
You write an introduction letter on your computer, maybe one page long (remember to include your postal address) and send it to her e-mail which you can find on her blog on the right (under the header "contact me"). She then will print and decorate it and will offer it on her blog for someone to receive it. And then a potential new pen pal will receive your letter in his (or her) mailbox and will send you a letter (or maybe a postcard) back.
Well, that's all for now, I hope you'll all send her something!
Take care,
Caddi
PS: I saw that some of my postcards (both Turkey and France) have started to arrive - phew!
PPS: I had a great week in the snow!

Stats of the Month - March
Phew - I sent an amazing amount of postcards this month! And that without being very active in postcrossing...
Just the numbers:
I got 15 letters and 16 postcards this month.
I sent 11 letters and 39 postcards this month. Two holidays a month really do matter :)
Pictures will have to wait!
Alles Liebe,
Caddi
