We had a book similar to Smile Awhile's, but it was just left in our downstairs living room where everyone tended to congregate and hang out. Basically, people would write little notes to each other in it and also talk about all of the good things that others were doing. For instance, something like "Cara, thank you so much for helping me study for my econ test! You are so sweet to help and I couldn't have done as well without you!" or even "Beth, I saw you across campus yesterday in your letters and you looked fabulous the way you were dressed and the way you had your hair. I'm so proud to have you as my sister!" These notes could be anonymous as well, and everyone loved flipping through the book every day to see what new ones were written and also to see ones from some time ago. I wish I had that in my adult life, haha!
