Stamps, coins, toys, cards, comics etc. At one point in your life, you've collected something and perhaps you still do! Growing up I collected rocks and minerals. I had no idea what I was looking at, but if the rock looked cool, I would put in my pocket and bring it home with me! I still remember to this day, I had a purple amethyst that I thought was just the coolest. I felt like a diamond theif straight out of one of those big time Hollywood heist movies. As I got older I began collecting new things such as super hero cards and action figures! I felt a sense of accomplisment trying to complete the set. I guess you would call me a completionist, or having a mild case of OCD hahahaha either works for me!
My biggest collection to date has to be my collection of DVD's. I've lost count of how many I actually own, but just to put it into perspective, I own over 650 wrestling DVD's alone (Geek Mode has been activated)!! Here's a quick sneak peek at the collection:
Growing up I would love to play 'Fireman' on the jungle gym in the park. You know sliding down the pole and rescuing imaginary people from the burning red tube ;) This was the first DVD I ever bought with my own money:

One of my favourite directors of all time is Alfred Hitchcock and I had to own one of his best:

I love horror movies, it's one of my favourite genres. I am also a huge fan of really bad campy horror flicks and these are three of my favs:

So there you have it, a little taste of what I enjoy collecting. What do you collect? Perhaps your collections put mine to shame? Remember, it's not hoarding if everything is neat and organized!
