you've got letters!

when was the last time did you send or get a letter? a long time a go, i guess. i miss to get one too even it's just a greeting card! too desperado, huh?

Indonesia government tries to relive the great legend of letters, to show how important it was in connecting people in old days and to remind how it is still relevant today.

my students had a chance to write a cny greeting card to their parents. they were all excited because they had not done it before. they know what postman and post office are, but they haven't seen one face to face, or have a conversation with one. they pass post offices many times, but i don't think they do realize that it was post office. sadly the postman didn't have time to come, instead a admin staff lady came to explain the procedure of sending letters.

i fully support this program although i will still use emails, blogs, texts or whatever modern way of communication. but i will creatively find a way to write letters, i promise :)
