What do you collect?
 
Do you have anything that you collect? I used to, when I was younger. But it wasn't something I chose to collect. Really, my great grandmother collected them and said that it was my collection lol She collected stamps and quarters.

I guess you could say I collect pictures. I take a lot and have a lot of my family, friends and pets, vacations, etc. and I hope to add to them and have them forever. They're more important to me than any trinket or stamp collection.

When I was younger I used to collect hats until my mom gave away all my hats including my 1996 Ohio State University Rose Bowl champions hat :s

Now I kinda unconciously collect ponytails and pens.

When I was younger I collected little statues of elephants. I had quite a lot of bejeweled pretty ones. They all had names too! I still have them, I think they are in the attic. I guess I collect makeup now. Though it doesn't feel like a 'collection' when there isn't lots.
Kya: Do you develop your pictures from film, print them out or do you keep them on the computer? It's nice to collect pictures, especially of your children/child. I know you have one at least? A little girl was it? I can't remember now but I saw a couple of pictures on mene. Not that I'm being creepy xD!

I collect books. My room is basically like a library. I'm getting so many that I'm actually going to have to start moving them to another room. o.o

I never really thought about it as a collection before, but I guess technically I collect pictures, too. I save all of the pictures that my friends and I take from Facebook and such and put them together into photo albums, so when we're older we'll have all of our old pictures from when we were teenagers and be able to go through them all.

In a way, I suppose I sort of collect clothes, too, because I have a lot of them and enjoy shopping for them often. I have quite a few corsets, if that counts as a collection. xD

I collect jewelry; my parents collect paintings. :XD

Nerdy/geeky t shirts.
I've got a pretty good collection going.

Beliar 12-17-2011 04:42 AM

I collect a few things. When I was a kid I liked collecting dolls, but I really don't have all that many. Now I collect books, comics (both american and japanese), and pictures (I take a ton and I hold onto all of them).

Venya 12-17-2011 04:55 AM

I collected cards mostly. and still do. Both pokemon and magic cards.

When I was younger I collected ornaments, just the type that you keep on a shelf. I had an entire doll's house worth of porcelain furniture, as well as a big white cat, and a whole bunch of other stuff. The collection's in storage now.

lunanuova: I love your avi Luna! I love the pale pink color and her eyes together. But I have the majority of my pictures on my computer, although I print the best ones from time to time to put into albums, scrap books and keepsakes boxes, in case my computer ever crashes and so that I have hard copies to filter through. I don't really consider the ones on my computer the important collection since I feel that they can be so easily lost, as they have been before =/

But yes lol I have a daughter, she's a little over a year now, and I think that since she's been here, I've taken more pictures, in that year, than I have all together in my whole life :sweat: Lol

P.s. I LOVE elephants! One of my favorite animals :yes:

I used to collect Poke'mon cards as well when I was younger, lol. I actually do still have my collection of 'em floating around somewhere in storage. I didn't collect a LOT of them, mainly the ones that I liked the most, and I have 'em all organized by favorite type, Poke'mon of the group (from least to favorite) and whatnot.

Though I don't really collect anything nowadays. I try and avoid collecting a lot of stuff that I might later down the road see as something that might just need to be thrown away.

Pa-chinko 12-17-2011 06:33 AM

I still collect Pandas. xD

Codette 12-17-2011 03:49 PM

Pa-chinko: I collect Panda's as well. Stuffed animals, statues, clothing, accessories. ^.^

umm, I collect pictures as well... I have a drawer full of photos and photo albums ^.^' All ranging from my first camera I got- I was in grade 7-, it was a christmas present from my grandparents, a point and shoot film camera; to my newest -see 2nd digital camera- with all the pictures from vacations to high school.

I have a collection of pokemon toys, as well as a collection of Pokemon, Digimon, Chaotic, Magic, Yugioh and a few other titles. I've beeen collecting them because well, in 15 years, someone is going to want to relive a bit of their childhood and I'll make a bit of cash ^.^ Especially since I've been getting all of these for free.

Now I just need money to buy more porcelain dolls, or have someone buy me some *laughs* I love porcelain dolls they're soo pretty. I have one that I got from my grandma, she was going to sell her at a garage sale with they began downsizing to be able to live in assisted living. She's this beautiful little southern belle in a blue dress and matching hat.

IndigoKitsune 12-17-2011 04:24 PM

When I was a kid, I used to collect precious moments figurines, and I still have them. I also collected rocks, shells, baseball cards.
Now I collect cards for Magic The Gathering, and gaming dice, that is when I am able too.

Darkness Within 12-18-2011 03:17 AM

I collect ticket stubs, mostly movies but also a few plays and a pair of round trip amtrack tickets from when I went to visit my bestie at her uni once several years ago.

Fashion 12-18-2011 03:24 AM

Vogue magazine I guess, and shoes. :angel:

Nonsensical 12-18-2011 03:28 AM

I've... never really collected anything. I kind of did with Pokemon cards, but I think I just liked having them. Now I use them as bookmarks. XD

Ashlyn Mae 12-19-2011 12:43 AM

Pens, lots and lots of pens. I've joked several times that all I want for my birthday and Christmas was more pens. Any pen that I think is awesome, I WILL have and WILL collect it.

TheNewCSLewis 12-19-2011 02:02 AM

I collect mini snowglobes from places that I have visited :) right now I have like ten, but it is growing!

Lush Cutie 12-19-2011 05:40 AM

I used to collect pokemon cards
I collect....nothing now

Sho-Shonojo 12-19-2011 06:13 AM

I collect animal whiskers. o.o I have a ton of pets so whenever they drop a whisker I throw it in a little box. I probably have at least 50. Is that weird?

I also collect my old ticket stubs, broken colored pencil leads and bottles.

Some more normal things are books, manga, anime and action figures.

I used to collect wolf stuffed animals but not so much anymore.

Draciolus 12-19-2011 06:28 AM

I collect dragons. I posted a ton of pictures that consisted of all my dragons on here not that long ago. Not sure where I posted it all, but its somewhere.

I also collect swords(well, I'm starting to, only have 2 right now), and pocket knives(have a good 25+)

aw that's cool

Ikuto Akihiko Hasegawa 12-21-2011 12:47 AM

I don't really do much of it, but something I always find myself looking over and sometimes purchasing are journals.
I used to write a bit back in middle school, but stopped. Nevertheless, I still like to buy journals if I find one particularly neat. I've got a small drawer full of them; some empty, some with a few short pages of stuff. :XD
