This week, I would like to share a project
named “Miss Word” with you. “Miss Word” is conducted by some students from NCCU
department of advertising. They are going to graduate from NCCU this year. And
I think what the project does for people just suits them.
“Miss Word” project promotes writing by
hands. The conductors consider that through hang-writing, people could convey
their true feeling lots more than typing.
And it runs like this: first, you need to
pay 100NTD to buy a special envelope with a postcard, an exclusive “Miss Word” edition
UNI ball pen, and a stamp for “future mail”. Then, write down what you want to
say to who you want to say to, after finishing hand-writing, just put it in to
the mailbox they prepared, and in the next year(2014) you or the one you mail
to will receive a postcard from 2013.
I found this activity on facebook. One of
my friends’s “liked” on its fan page caught my eye, so I checked it, and I took
an interest in it immediately. I think it is meaningful to send a letter for
people in the future, to express our feelings “in the past”. Therefore I
introduce “Miss Word” to you, hope you like it.

Dear Lynn Chung,
ReplyDeleteI know the event from my roommate last week, too. It is really meaningful and lets people want to give it a try. Just like the time capsule, we can receive past encouragement and wishes in the future. That must be very special and unexpected. However, I don’t have strong incentive to attend. Though I like its idea very much, I don’t know what I should write now and I am scared that someone could see my deep mind accidentally. Maybe it’s because I stay in the dark in regard of the definition of my life. If you want to say something to 20-year-old yourself, you can experience “Miss Word” project. Many of my friends did it, and they were all excited.
It's just like a time pill. you send a letter to yourself or someone in the future. To say what you want to say. But I think it is interesting that what will the receiver think in the future.
