Dear Friend, Hey, how are you? You’re so sweet. Are you okay? Are you sad? Sentimental but strong, you are. I just want to give you a hug, but that would be unprofessional. I’m not the touchy-fe...

Dear Friend, I’m angry at my roommate. What do I expect? I think the important thing for being in a friendship or relationship with someone is that person has to care for your benefits. Everyone...

Dear Friend, MLK day! Last day of the 3-day weekend and I wasn’t as productive as I was hoping to be. Today is my last chance. First things in the morning: roll around in bed, bathroom, and rea...

Dear Friend, I need to motivate myself. It’s passed midnight and I’m lying here. I don’t have the motive to get up and prepare for bed. OK, sit up now and put my little desk on the floor. DONE. ...

Dear Friend, I haven’t been using Prosebox lately. I guess since school gives me a rhythm of things so I don’t need to self motivate. My supervisor saw my to-do list and made a scene of out it! ...

Dear Friend, What is this Prosebox? Where is my entry I was writing this morning? I thought you save automatically! Well it’s not a huge loss for me, since I’m using Prosebox mostly to record my...

Dear Friend, This morning I woke up at 8 (good enough, close to 8 hours of sleep) and I read the conversation between my mom and my sister (we have a family group chat) and my mom admitted to no...

Dear Friend, I wanted to get 8 hours of sleep, but habit kicked and I was up after just 7 hours. And I’m lying here in bed reading prosebox. I love this. The content is always new and updated an...

Dear Friend, Another day. How can I make the best of it? I’m so stagnant these days. I have to use prosebox to motivate me to do things. I’m thinking that I’m letting all of this overwhelm me so...

Dear Friend, 2019 goes by so fast ahhhhhhhhhhh Am I even talking to you anymore, or am I talking to myself? I’m so excited for the new semester. Please be here for me. I sound like I have ADHD i...
That rail line survey that is going around on Prosebox
Is there a rail line near your house? If so, is it noisy and bothersome? No. Does anyone in the US live in such a place? What’s your favorite flavor of potato chip? Potato chip? Ew. Never found t...

Dear friend, This morning, I got up early for my 3-hour work shift at the library. Our supervisor kindly brought us bagels. I had a pretzel-flavored bagel (who knows, right?) with strawberry crea...
Just today
Dear Friend, I never actually wrote you complaining about petty things. Okay, sometimes, maybe. One or two times. But this is my personal journal, so I can complain as much as I want. I have a pr...
I miss you
Dear Friend, I finally wrote you that note about how much you have meant to me and such. I miss you already! I just got off writing to you, and I already miss you. I miss your wonderful “voice” (...
2018 Survey
I borrowed the format henter link description hereere, from another PB user. I like the survey, and perhaps it’ll help me with some ideas for a personal statement. What did you do in 2018 that yo...
New Year Resolutions
Dear Friend, How do you usually do with New Year Resolutions? I find that most of mine do come true. That is because I don’t set specific goals like “run for at least 30 minutes each day.” I set ...
Moving along, lesson about envy
Dear Friend, I’m contemplating messaging you again. I mean, messaging you for real, not merely journaling and imagining that you’re reading it. I’m going to message you again and tell you how muc...
Planning
Dear Friend, I’m still pretty high from getting that abstracted accepted. My moods vary by circumstances. It’s kind of annoying sometimes. I just received a good news, now I can’t think about any...
Good news!
Dear Friend, I came home for vacation so I don’t have as much privacy to journal as I want. So I’ll just be making short, quick entries. One of my paper has been accepted to be presented at a con...
Procrastinating
Dear Friend, I have never written to you to complain. I know that you don’t like pity parties. I was so mad when you said that for the first time. Like, how could you be so insensitive to people ...
I like the idea of this site
and I look forward to writing a lot here. I think I should assign a time slot everyday for this task. I want to express myself, but I don’t want it to be just for myself. It feels lonely there. I...
Book Description
I used to have someone to talk to.
I have never met him in real life, but I daresay he’s the greatest person I’ve ever known.
But maybe I say that because he helped ME.
He listened to me, really listened. He cared about my story. He was unbelievably caring. He had amazing advice. I was mesmerized by his wonderful attitude toward life. I learned so much from him.
I never knew his name.
Since he was my anonymous listener, I compared him to the Friend in the novel The Perks of Being a Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky. But the difference is that he did respond to my letters.
I could not have asked for anything more from a listener. I loved him from the bottom of my heart.
But I decided to stop, because I was getting well and I didn’t want to bother him anymore.
I’m here to pretend like I’m still writing to him, my dear Friend.
