My first collection was cards Not just normal cards but Sailor moon cards.

Now I think they are stupid but before my dream was to be one. I had 268 cards. I kept on asking for more.. When I got 200 I just wondered how on earth I got all these cards. But two years later I got really bored. I thought they were for babies.

So I quit. But when I didn't have anything to collect.. it wasn't fun.

The second thing I collected was stickers. I started collecting them when I was in second grade. My cousin gave me a sticker album for my birthday. Then my grandmother sent me bunch of shiny and fluffy stickers. I filled up half of my sticker book. I was veiy happy. When I looked through my room I found another bunch of stickers that filled the other half of the book. I counted them. THERE WERE MORE THAN1000 STICKERS!! It was hard to keep track of counting them. I was really surprised. A week later I had no more interest. My mom said in a suprised voice., "That was quick! "

In third grade I collected erasers. Japanese erasers are really cool. I had ten in the beginning. Then my grandmother sent me eleven food erasers. They are erasers which are in the shape ot food I went to my friendŐs house. She had a BUNCH of erasers. She had so many that she didn't want them anymore. . I thought they were cool. so she gave them to me. She gave me twenty-nine erasers! I was so lucky. My mom got me some.. When I told my grand mother that I collected erasers, she sent me more than twenty. Ihad seventy-eight in all! 1 thought I was in heaven.

Since the fourth grade I have been collecting money. I collected it by helping my mother. I once had more than 100 guilders but I spent it all. I couldn't believe it when it was all gone. I bought my friend a present because she was leaving with my own money. I bought my own plant too. Now I only have 12 guilders 50 cents because I used it all.

Now I collect coins and do not use them.
