Collecting souvenirs

Post Reply New Topic

Do you like collecting souvenirs from places you have visited? This habit used to be developed in me even more than now several years ago - every time I used to bring home shoddy items (like a picture made of numerous scraps of amber) when I was coming back from summer holidays while now I have switched over to postcards - they look so tidy when they simply lie in the box. I also still keep all those items that have been witnesses of interesting events from my life - a pair of white gloves I was wearing during my first communion, badges I got in primary school, drawings from childhood...

I still have the shed skins from the garter snake I found and kept as a pet for a year.
I still have my pine car derby trophy for 2nd place (wheel broke during first run, would have made 1st place)
I also have the bronze medal I won for a regional science fair project.
I have the event booklets and passes from both the anime conventions I attended.
I also have the pins that I bought when I went on vacation to Florida. I bought extra ones to give to my friends, but I was too embarrassed to hand them out so I still have them. I got me some of those pressed pennys too.
