I was in stamp collection, then drawing, later collected few coins. But in these my coins that I collected have more value, two of coins is way back in Travancore kings ruled in South India. I used spend some time in drawing, I liked it,but unfortunately only a single one is with me. All my drawing has been taken or may be stolen when we shifted our home to present place. But at present I am not continuing any of my hobbies that were way back when I was kid. But I have those coins and stamp still we with me.

My mom used to collect stamps and I used to help her with it when we were growing up. My dad collects photos and I have continued the tradition. But sadly, we lost all of mom's stamp albums during the Gulf invasion and we haven't done it since then.

Writing...I have always loved to write. As far back as 1st grade I submitted a poem that won a prize in the school. I just love it. I used to draw, but I have within the past couple of years started to paint. Not drawing much anymore. I used to collect unicorns too..lol..I haven't done that since I was very young. I do have one unicorn from my childhood that I have managed to salvage and pass on to my youngest daughter.

I used to collect stamps when i was in my high school days. It was a fad before to have pen-pals that's why. I have pen-pals from Seoul, USA and other countries so i get to collect a lot of stamps. But then, when i went to college and had my group of friends always going out, i forgot my penpals and so with my stamp collections. I never can remember where it was placed in our house before. It was simply gone. But now you can have net pals, like here in Mylot!

I had a passion for collecting rocks when I was a child. I have continued collecting various stones even into adult hood. Especially hematite. I actually joke that hematite is my favorite color. I think it throws people off!

That is something rare one, I do like stones, but hardly use it to throw others.

Reading. :) I started with small story books when I was just around eight years old? Up to now, I'm still collecting books. I love cheap secondhand bookstores. Sometimes I buy tons of books even when I don't have time to read them. And I feel awful whenever I see pending books that beg to be read. :(

I also collected stamps when I was younger, I had a lot of different stamps from around the world. When I moved away from my parents' home I didn't keep my stamps and today I don't have a stamp collection. When I was younger I also had other collections like a postcard collection. When I was still living with my parents I put them all on my wall, and the entire wall was covered with postcards When I moved I gave my postcards away to a friend. I think that the only hobby that I had as a child and still have today is music. In the past I collected cassette tapes and records, today I collect cds.

in my case it is not "still" there was an interval of my hobby , it is the first time i can hold a pen in my hand when i begin to love painting drawing picture. quarter of my childhood splash on them , but when i start school life all those fair thing ended , piles of homework and great pressure of competition wouldn't allow spend even half an hour on developing my interesting. once i went to university things got better, only scarcely course each week beside what is written on the syllabus,we were free for the rest. so i restart my interesting doing what i want talk what i like. that's really good .

hello Sham, I can say that,i love art works. Since my childhood,i always love to make things from scratch or trash. If i saw one thing that attracts me and then looking at it gives me idea that i can still make use of it,i will pick that thing/object and modify so it can be used. Until now,i don't just throw away empty bottles or cans or container. I think of ways that it can be used again. I like to draw also. My kids have same hobbies and interest with me. They all know and like to draw,animation most likely. i am also collecting coins,and fortunately,i have Indian friend who gives me rupees (coins and bills)

Haha, I was also into stamps, then drawing and then a few coins. I still have my collections but I'm not as much into it as a was as a child. However I do enjoy drawing once in a while though, and making small sculptures. I still have a lot of drawing but oddly enough a lot of my favorite drawings from childhood suddenly dissapeared too when I was about to move. I hope they are safe somewhere but it's a lot of years ago and I haven't seem them since, it's pretty sad since drawing was such a huge part of my childhood. Oh well, life goes on :)
