Some people love collecting figurines, some people love memorabilia, some people want to collect bottle caps and there even people who loves to collect cars. What are the things you would like to collect? I want to collect different videogame consoles since I love video games and I also want to have action figures, Is till have some action figure collection actually. My sister love collecting mugs while my brother love collecting comicbooks.

I want to collect old computer hardware. The kind that is interesting to me.

I used to collect bugs, rocks, and feathers when I was a kid. lol I had quite a lot of fun with that!

I'd also want to collect books too. But it gets pretty expensive.

I think collecting is about accomplishments in life. I find if I'm not collecting anything now, I haven't accomplished anything in life at the time. But when I do collect stuff, I do accomplish more in life. It's quite interesting how a simple activity can help you be better prepared in life.


myLot reputation of 96/100. albertwhisker (4532)  2 years ago

Yes, it feels good to have some things we wanted and you are right about the feeling of accomplishment once your collection had increased, Also collecting stuff we cant buy before was very satisfying, It feels good and it motivates you to work harder.

i collect a number of items and i really love all i have. i have a collection of antique books, glass and post cards. i guess i would just like to get more of the stuff i have already. i love antiques!


myLot reputation of 96/100. albertwhisker (4532)  2 years ago

I love the hardcovered antique books, they can survive the times unlike most books today with thin undurable covers. My mom have a large collection fo post cards, those were from my dad, My dad used to work abroad.

I have been through so many phases!! Books, comic book figures, DVD's, Mugs, Tins, Stamps & much more.

My mother collects everything and every now & again I remind myself I am turning into her so promptly freecycle or sell my collections only to start again!!!

I'm currently on books & DVD's again as I seem to be having a bit more time on my hands, although this will only last until I run out of storage space then some will have to go again!!

Have fun

I have "collection of humans" In Sims 2 and 3, and digital collection of songs, I found them convienient and practical. It helps me save space but a Physical collection was nice because we can touch them and feel them.

I used to collect all sorts of things- now I dont have anything that resembles a collection and just get what I want - it is a relief in the end to wean myaelf of the collecting bug.
All my things were sold on e bay and now i had a nice hilday in Australia


myLot reputation of 96/100. albertwhisker (4532)  2 years ago

Why did you get tired of them? At least you earned something from EBAY and give them, new homes for other collectors.


myLot reputation of 90/100. dreamer101 (541)  2 years ago

im going in for minimalism lol- you can have too many things that you dont need, most things that i have now I need.
I miss my postcards though lol ah well - also moving to anoyther country i had to have minimal things to pack

I want to collect music boxes! Music boxes are so rare to come by these days and its hard to find one so expertly made. There's just something about them that is so mysterious and wonderful.


myLot reputation of 96/100. albertwhisker (4532)  2 years ago

I l,ove the sound of a music box, it can sound innocent and sweet and they can also sound creepy and scary, there is something mysterious about it.

Hi albert. I'm not technically a collector, but I love 'collecting' clothes, bags and books. Actually, we have a mini-library in our house because our family loves collecting books. My mom started that hobby since she was a teenager and the books she had back then are still stored in our library. ;)) To be honest, I haven't read 90% of them though I make it a point to scan those books during my free time like summer and long vacations. :)

I once thought about being a collector of Doraemon items, but I stopped because it didn't make sense to me. Hehe sorry. Yes I love Doraemon, but I guess I love collecting 'worthwhile' items more like books. Just like my mom, I would love those books to be inherited by my future kids too. ;)


myLot reputation of 96/100. albertwhisker (4532)  2 years ago

I love Doraemon because its a stress free anime, It feeds our fantasies about things we wish we can do in real life like a bread that can make us memorize a book if we it it or a blanket that can make us younger. The imagination of the writer of that show was very awesome.


myLot reputation of 85/100. cecillecarmela (1555)   ranked 109 out of 7,518 in enjoy life  2 years ago

I agree. :) The writer of that anime is a brilliant one. Doraemon is a symbol of a true friend. Despite the show's fantastical side, we can learn a lot of things in real life from Doraemon. :D

in my teenage years, we have been collecting pocketbooks and condensed books. this went on in my first few years working. we had accummulated around 800 pocketbooks, and a wide range of old issues of time magazine, national geographic and readers' digest of course (which my aunts have been a subscriber for several years before). hehe kind of a mini library.

these days, unintentionally or unconsciously... i've been collecting bills and coins of different currencies from places i have visited and people i have met. hehe i'm quite fascinated by the intricate designs on pieces of special paper. something of value to other people living in that country. i now have about a good sum in almost 20 currencies. hehehe i've only been to 6 other countries though.

so perhaps my dream collection will be... travel memories. i hope to travel extensively in places i've never been to, which i just used to read in books or online. i may collect photos or small mementos and continue accummulating foreign currencies... enough to remind me i've been to places i can only imagine before. hehe


myLot reputation of 96/100. albertwhisker (4532)  2 years ago

My dad have lots of National geographic issues and some of them were since 1970's and he even have those old playboy magazine issues that i read when my parents were not around.

Yup. I maybe some kind of frustrated ambitious person but I like to collect cars. Hmmm I only have one my lifetime hopefully will get the next cars soon.happy

Anyway, I tried to collect different kinds of key chain before but I was not able to continue. I know one friend who has a very stunning collection of the same, I don't know if I could post the link here since hes in my friendster's friends list.


myLot reputation of 96/100. albertwhisker (4532)  2 years ago

I want to customize cars someday, I dont know if something I created by my self can be considered a collection though,
