I used to collect anything and everything that looked interesting to me, not necessarily useful.. but just exciting. I made use of few of these, making them less/more beautiful and exciting than they originally were. Most of the stuff I collected just remained on my table or side shelf for a while and then slowly got relocated to a distant corner where they waited for their turn to be thrown out. A lot of them had some special charm which was probably a function of the 'point of time'.. as they looked less interesting with time or in comparison with the newbies on the desk. I don't know whether it was right to throw them off like that.. but it eventually happened with at least a few.
As a kid, I used to have all sorts of things in my room, from bird nests to stones to skeletons of animals. My mom was a worried soul initially, sensing a certain amount of retardation in her son. She almost confirmed it when I painted the fan and refused to remove the cobwebs off it. To preserve the webs, I didn't even use the fan for a while.. a few months only! A decent enough performance in the school, somehow forced my parents to believe that it is just the kid inside me, who is refusing to grow up with the body.
When I started putting my dirty hands and eyes on the virtual world, I continued this habit of mine. I collect all the tit bits that grab my attention as I browse through. Here are a few of them... I can't throw them away yet..!!
