I am 23 years old and currently I was cleaning my house's store room. As I was cleaning, I found some interesting things. They are all my precious memories when I was still a kid. Those thing including my painting, photos, presents and letters from friends. Well, it is warming when looking those items back. Those good memories are sweet. Just some feelings I want to share. =)

Where I used to live, I used to clean my room every month and I'd come across all these things from my childhood. I used to save all these crazy odds and ends but I've learned to let go of them. A few of the things I can't dispose of though is an old lunch box. It was made metal and it had Snoopy and the Peanuts gang. Great nostalgia right there :) Reminds me of good and carefree times

I've always wanted to be young and careless whenever I stare at my collections cabinet full of puzzles, game boards like chess, Chinese checkers, scrabble, and Sudoku. It was me when I was only 6 yo. :D

Yeah! We do have a lot of traditional games like Sungka, Dama (Philippine version of Chinese Checkers), Yoyo, Trumpo, Sipa and Chinese garter. I'm just not so sure if all those things are native of the my country. :D

I like keeping my favorite collections too, of my high school years, college years, things I bought when traveling to interesting places around the world , and so on. They are really very valuable, may not be money-wise, but certainly the memories they carry.

Yes greenline, those memories can't buy with the money.
