So tell us, and let us know, let us learn something about you!!!!!!!!
When and what have you collected during life?
I wish I could start a new hobby and collect something, not anything lame, but something meaningful. (i.e stamps are lame to me, sorry!)But nothing that would take up too much space in my house, or anything disgusting. I wanna collect something interesting, something that will have value in time..........
You know, my mother has things from when she was a teenager, and she's almost 90!!!!!!!! She showed me a camera she got when she graduated from high school that her grandmother gave her to keep. It's like brand new, and I would love to find some new film for it for her, but we can't find it anywhere, it's so old!!!!!1 And she even still has hair clips from when she was a little girl, scrapbooks from the nighties,just so much stuff! (She calls it junk but I know it HAS to have SOME kind of meaning for her.
So what do you collect? Do you like it? How does it affect you?

Hahaha. Oh i love this discussion coz I like to collect stuff since I was a little girl. When I was younger I'd collect colorful candy wrappers. Then I collected pretty stationerys/papers and stickers--this lasted so long,...until I was in my mid 20s! Now i still have a supply of pretty papers and stickers but only coz i know i will be using them on occasions. But i don't hoard them anymore without really any use for most of them.
I also collected some bugs/insects. They're all mixed in a small box--bees mostly and some butterfly... the bees are beautiful--iridiscent in color.
I collect books too and waterglobes and lately i've been getting toy cars. yup... i have a wide variety of collections. my bedroom is a haven for my friends. my girlfriends say it's like a giftshop of sorts. my male friends are just plain mesmerized with all the trinkets and colors on my shelf and my dresser. the kids looooove being in my room coz it is so child friendly as well. hahah.
i guess im weird. shrugs....
