Describe an item you were incredibly attached to as a youth. What became of it?
Two years ago I wrote about my experience as a collector, The Collector, and why I am collecting the items I do at the moment. You can read more there but I would just say that I lost all the ponies I had as a kid, I missed them, but I got new ones to replace them. As a grown up. I still have them although they are not displayed as they used to be. Some of them are back in boxes and stored and others just on the bedroom and guestroom as the living room is for the planes. Some days I think I should be doing something with them, like I used to do when I started collecting them, which was cleaning them, grooming them, and always carry one in my bag, for comfort. I guess I have somehow out grown that. But I still want to keep them with me.
