What do YOU collect?

States quarters. The only ones that I am missing are the Arizona & DC quarters from the Denver mint. Denver quarters are pretty uncommon on the East Coast.
 
Books, sort of. I buy quite a few books to read. I keep them and years later re-read them. I have all (I think) of the Star Trek Voyager books, the DS9 relaunch, and the SCE paperbacks. I also have other ST books. I collect Barbie dolls. I just recently purchased the 50th Anniversary doll and the Barbie Kentucky Derby doll. I have a few Beanie Babies and Care Bears. :D

I'm collecting the state quarters too. I need to get the more recent ones in my book.
 
Ah! Thanks for clearing that up! I ask because I've often thought of going to JAPAN one day.

I was in Japan last June. It was pretty sweet, and I'm considering getting qualified to go back there and teach English. And I'm teaching myself Japanese now, so hopefully if I do go again I can speak with the people a little bit.

What, with you? Aren't you a college student? Where do you keep them?

I'm not a college student actually. :) I dropped out when I was 21...and I'm 27 now. I have about half of them in a big book shelf in my bedroom (that has gotten too full and spilled onto the floor in front of it), and the rest are in my mom's basement.


- Books (authors I like such as Hunter S. Thompson, Jack Kerouac, William S. Burroughs, David Sedaris, Charles Bukowski and others)

Yeah Bukowski! I have the poem The Finest of the Breed tattooed down my spine.

Sorry. I see the picture avatar, I see Ames, Iowa, I think college student.
 
I collect records and memorabilia pertaining to the rock band Queen.

I have a large collection although it stalled somewhat when Freddie died as they became way too expensive, I still pick up bargains when I see them and I am not averse to a little trading when I find something cheap that I already have.

I also collect coloured vinyls and picture discs in general of my favourite bands, my next largest collection would be Pearl Jam, followed by The Almighty, STP, Faith No More, Therapy? and Soundgarden. I have a significant number of the rare records released by these bands.
 
I collect foreign coins, Lord of the Rings CCG cards in foreign languages, and have collected sports cards and stamps. I also collect books.
 
Books on a variety of subject matter from works of classic literature to military history to martial arts books (eccletic tastes) and I also collect MP3s of various national anthems from throughout the world.
 
From certain time I collect only adoptables from various adoptable sites, such as PokéPlushies, Dragon Cave, UniCreatures and Kingdom of Knuffel. I used to collect things related to star Trek and Harry Potter - but then... once I was away for a holidays while my room has been painted... and my parents threw all my collections to rubbish :( How mean of them :klingon: And since then I sticked just to online adopters sites. But I still miss all my collected articles, posters and other things.
 
I collect CD's/Albums have over 2,000 cd's and 500 albums. I'm also a big map/atlas collector and of course Star Trek stuff, my wife collects fairies, its odd to see a fairy hanging out next to Sisko!
 
souls, mindless noises, Oh right collect..,? the used tea bags to do something with somehow.

Sorry to hear that. My Mother did that to me a couple of times when I was in Grade School. :(
 
Hmmm... Outside of the normal DVD and book addiction that many of us seem to have, I collect Lions Club pins. I just got the 3rd in the 27-A1 Motorcycle Girl Series, and then entire second set of Door County Girls over the weekend.
