Spoons of Love: Heart Broken

Monday 18 June 2012

I am quite sad with the envelopes I received today..

1. I arranged to swap 11 Woodpeckers postcards in envelope with a new swapper. But she sent me postcards which are not in good condition, old and brown/dirty at the back of the postcards :(

2. I swapped 4MS and FDCs with another new swapper . We agreed to sent it via registered mail as the postal service in her country is terrible. But Today I received her envelope via normal mail, she did not put any thick paper/cardboard on the envelope, as a result the envelope was bended and damaged. The items she sent me were ruined..

A very sad day for me.. :( well, I don't think I'll be doing a second and future swap with them again..

FYI, Malaysia will issue new stamps of Woodpecker on December, I was thinking of making a self made maxi cards..

oh well, plenty of time to search for it again..

Dear Readers, As part of my work with UN Women, I have started reading as many books and essays about equality as I can get my hands on. There is so much amazing stuff out there! Funny, inspiring, sad, thought-provoking, empowering! I’ve been discovering so much that, at times, I’ve felt like my head was about to explode… I decided to start a Feminist book club, as I want to share what I’m learning and hear your thoughts too. The plan is to select and read a book every two months, then discuss the work and related topics together. I will post some questions/quotes to get things started, but I would love for this to grow into an open discussion with and between you all. Whenever possible I hope to have the author, or another prominent voice on the subject, join the conversation. If you fancy it, please join up and participate. Everyone is welcome. I would be honoured! Emma x
