I'm really just trying to put off exam studying right now, but I'm pretty curious as well. xD

So, what kinds of things do you collect as a hobby? I like the idea of dedicating so much time, usually years, to result in a wide array of one specific item or theme. Over the years, I've found a few things worth collecting, and I'm sure some of you have as well. So I wanna hear about it!

As for me, I've collected/am collecting:

Beanie Babies - about 163 I think. I've stopped pursuing them now, because the new ones are so different.
Zebra paraphernalia - In all, about 25 zebraish items. I lubs me some zeeebras. C:
Flattened souvenir pennies - 52
Precious rocks/minerals/fossils/shells - About 60 of these kinds of things. Amethysts, agate, jade, hematite, assorted shells, corals, insects and scorpions in resin, shark teeth and jaws, and fossils.
Foreign/rare currency - I have an Egyptian note, a $2 bill, a super old 5¢ military payment certificate note and miscellaneous coins from various countries.
Candy bar wrappers - 86
Chopstick wrappers - about 13-15
Postcards - 22. This is a new one, I've suddenly become obsessed with postcards. xD
Ticket stubs - 38. Mostly from movies I've seen (and liked) since 2004, but also events/concerts/broadway/etc.

So, what about you guys?
