Last Sunday when I was chit-chatting with my friends after having dinner, I suddenly shouted out! The COMING FRIDAY is JAMIE’S BIRTHDAY! Jamie is our best friend and we are so busy that we forgot to prepare for her birthday! What gift should we send her?

Our beloved Jamie has left Hong Kong last year and is now studying for her business degree in Amsterdam. Unless we spend all our savings to buy a ticket to Amsterdam, we cannot make her a nice and memorable birthday party as gift. Shopping has shrinked my pocket already.

What should we give Jamie as gifts to make her feel that we miss her so much and that we hope we are with her? What would make her feel moved? Although we cannot hold parties for her, we are always with her! What gift can present her such message?

Posting her a bulk gift would cost a lot as posting fee is not cheap at all, Amsterdam is quite far away indeed. And actually Jamie’s mummy and daddy are so rich that they could buy her anything she lacks as gift.

Postcards are sent when people visit different countries. It is because characteristic views will be printed on postcards. Every postcard can be considered as a photo. That is why some people like collecting postcards besides of sending postcards to other.

The photos on postcard are usually taken under detailed planning. Thus the photos always look so beautiful and they can attract buyers. Moreover, as the photos on the postcard are usually a special view in the country, postcard can be travel identification.

Nowadays, fewer people send postcard than before but people will but postcards as a gift. Although appreciating the photos on postcard is also good, the objective of using postcard is transformed. Today, many people send e-mail and photo though computer but not postcard.

If you want to use computer, you may use e-card. You can write message to your friends as usually. You can use e-card anywhere as long as internet is available. You can also draw something. Pictures can bring more message than words.
