What do you collect?

I collect Manga (Japanese comic books), and Anime. I have not been as active about buying them lately due to lack of funds- it can get rather expensive at ten dollars a book, and ten dollars or more a DVD. I have around two-hundred books and four anime series, but I haven't counted them lately to get a good idea of what I do and don't have anymore.

i used to collect stamps , now i started it again because my students (young kids of 4 to 9 th std.) are into it , so i try to collect stamps for them , so any one who has stamps who can donate it to children for their collection can send it to me , my address is given at the discussion i started please go through it .... http://www.mylot.com/w/discussions/2158669.aspx

I like to collect stamps of different countries and coin.

Hello Shhheila, My hubs like to collect cd's and dvds like you. But for me, I like to collect stickers. I have a lot stickers, some are fancy stickers, some are stickers on cartoon characters. Now I still buy stickers, but never collect the stickers any more. I buy all the stickers for my kids. They like to paste the stickers every where at home.

Collecting is a fine and rewarding hobby. You derived many things from it: fun, vocabulary and your total insights deepened and widened. I used to collect local and foreign stamps some 3 decades back but I had to forget the hobby because of the flash floods that visit us almost yearly devastating almost everything in our house as well as the neighbors.

Hi Shhheila, Like Valenas I also collect manga, though I always get it when it is marked down since I never read it. I just like to have it on the shelf looking pretty so that if people ask I can say I own it lol! I do have one series that I actively collect and love (it is the one my avatar is from) but most are for show unless I get ill and am bed ridden in which case I am allowed to actually read it! A less healthy thing I collect is food. I am a massive hoarder of food and would probably do quite well in some form of disaster, but it isn't all that great when one gets cravings for 'bad' foods lol! When I was younger I used to collect money too, though it is harder now I have to use it to actually buy things! All the best, Dranz
