Hobbies/Collecting. What's yours?

[darkiceis]

Everyone has something they love to do or collect.  What's yours?

-I am a huge Sailor Moon fan and have a rather large collection, and still growing. I suppose I consider it both, a hobby and collecting

❤️ Moonie for life ❤️

-Limited Edition Disney dolls from The Disney Store, these dolls are just gorgeous

@Skunk12puzzola What I do for pictures is take a screenshot of it instead of trying to copy the image.  You don’t have to limit your post or hearts unless you are doing a lot of them in a short amount of time. This is more related to the bot thing that itsfi was talking about. I post a lot and have never been flagged for how many posts I have done or the hearts I give out. It has to be a lot in a short amount of time and I mean a lot. I have been told by MODs about my post too a handful of times so please don’t let that discourage you from posting.

@SportyGirly125 thank you 😘 I'm always very severe with myself, and I felt like I made someone angry at me, or disappointed....I was like this even in school 🤣 almost cry cry when a teacher was upset at me or something else. Thank you for the support, when I saw the mod in my messages I got scared 😥 but it's nice to hear from someone so popular like you that they pointed out things even with you, it's somehow a relief, I'm not alone haha....thanks again. Have a nice weekend.

@Skunk12puzzola I’m the same way. I hate being in any sort of trouble. 

Have a great weekend and can’t wait to chat on here more with you. 

[Skunk12puzzola]

@SportyGirly125 exactly, I hate being in trouble or a problem for others!! you're so kind and friendly 😘

@darkiceis I collect pencils.  Last I knew, I had over 700 of them.  Now it's probably closer to 800.  The heyday for them for really in the mid 80s-early 90s.  It's hard to find cute ones these days.  My sister is living in Japan, and she sd she's been looking but hasn't found any.  I want to go back to Las Vegas (haven't been there since I was a poor college student!) just to buy as many as I can.  Of course, I'd probably go back and they'd have next to none now.

That sounds like a really fun collection, @greeneyedgirl107. Do you display them?

[greeneyedgirl107]

@quspork I wish I did!  In college I thought it would be fun to put them in a shadow box, but I didn't have the money.  I guess I could now, though - but I'd need so many boxes!

[itsfi]

Wow @greeneyedgirl107, that sounds like an awesome collection! 😍

@greeneyedgirl107 @That’s really neat! The 90s was such a good time for that kind of stuff; I remember being obsessed  with those milky gel pens 

[Kim888]

I don’t do a ton of collecting because of apartment living - just not a lot of space ! I am passionate about theatre so I save my playbills from shows I’ve been to! I wish I’d saved the ones from shows when I was younger, but I have the ones from adulthood 

Spoiler

Shows this year so far! 

 

I also recently bought a record player so I’ve been collecting some records - there’s some cool record stores in nyc and some of the older ones are pretty cheap! 

[itsfi]

@Kim888, what a great idea to collect the playbills! 

[CookieGirl1]

@Kim888 I have such good memories of being a little girl, listening to my dad play records on his old record player.  I grew up on that music!

[heartsmyface]

@Kim888 @Théâtre and music sound like fantastic  ways to spend your time:). I love that your collections are compact and fit neatly together.  What kind of music do you enjoy? 

[Kim888]

@heartsmyface @I like classic rock, mainly my parents’ generation stuff and a lot of 90s/early 2000 pop haha. I don’t have a car so I rarely listen to the radio; I admittedly am very bad at keeping up with what is current unless a friend tells me to listen to something specific. Some of the new K-pop stuff sounds cool though! 

[heartsmyface]

@Kim888   Whatever pleases you.  I don’t tend to keep up to date really either.  I happen upon music and if it strikes a chord then I listen to it non stop. I’m all over the place and like songs from many genres, though I listen to mostly ambient and lowfi and also love instrumental pieces over most songs with lyrics.

@Kim888   Cool art and good memories!

[Ispend2much6]

I found some pictures of my collections.  I thought I had a ring with a doll, but maybe it was a locket.  This is similar at any rate.

Wacky Packages.  They still make me laugh; what does that mean? lol

[Ispend2much6]

@Margalee  I remember! 😂

[heartsmyface]

@Ispend2much6   I had collector cards/stickers? Of these!!! They used to come on little trading card packs with sticks of gum!!  Had I known they were going to be worth something one day!!   

[Ispend2much6]

@heartsmyfaceI know!
