I'm actually pretty obsessed with collecting things. When I was younger, I collected Pokemon and Yu-Gi-Oh cards. I also had a pretty nice glass doll collection when I was little, but I definitely don't still collect those. A few years back I got craaaazy into collecting manga and bought around 40 per year for two years (and started out with a collection of thirty or so prior to that), but it's not a very impressive collection now since I stopped and haven't bought any for a while. I'd like to pick that up again, though. I've done the same with books in the past, but I only have a few hundred since, again, it's an off and on sort of collecting, and I may start back up tomorrow, or it could be a year from now. I have a pretty large collection of rocks, and I collect any interesting plants, sea shells, insects, and other things from nature that I find pretty or unique. Just today I added a new cicada to my collection, actually. I have a pretty good amount of dried roses and orchids in my collection right now... they're very pretty. I can't think of much else I collect, besides matryoshka things (I bought a very lovely checkers set with matryoshka playing pieces last month). I guess the only other thing that I like to go out and purposely collect would be ribbons for my hair. I have a really large selection and love to go through my big boxes of them and try them out in my hair all the time for fun... but I'm a little shy to ever wear them out in public since I rarely ever see anyone else doing anything like that.... So, I like collecting things very much. :>
