Posted February 26, 200322 yr you know you have one, so what is it? id have to say my watch and this sock monkey i've had for ages. it was made by retarded people so i feel a special kinship to it.
February 26, 200322 yr it will be my new watch ! but now... It's a toss between my bike, my journal/sketchbook and my bed. I love my bed. I wish I was there right now.
February 26, 200322 yr Yeah the stuff I've made myself would have to be my most prized possessions, or the things I've worked really hard for ... example: back when I was 13 or so my team won the gold medal provincally (soccer) so we were the best team in Alberta (think of it [Americans] like winning state championship or something) everytime I see the gold medal I can't help but feel proud...
February 26, 200322 yr i have this one asian lady i have been saving up for years got her from my sick grandma on my turkish birthday don't know what i am saving her for? oh yeah and i have a peice of ass from my moms first gang bang
February 26, 200322 yr Might sound corny....but oh well my music collection---80's,hip-hop.classic rock,jazz,blues....whatever(no techno or drum n' bass...because I can't stand that shit) I have 329 tapes around 60 cd's and 4 crates of albums(I'm picky with what I buy...most of the stuff is classic material)....whatever....there you have it....
February 26, 200322 yr everything i own i think i could live without or replace. i have certain t-shirts i really like, but my favorite has gotten lost without causing too much pain. i'll fall in love with a new marker or a can of paint more than anything else material i have, but those always get replaced too. maybe its the ease with which i have always acquired things that makes me not particularly care for all that i have.
February 26, 200322 yr i dont have anything. that sucks.when i was little i was always in trouble so my parents would take away anything that id miss, so i learned to not be so attached to anythng, that id be upset about losing it. that really sucks.

February 26, 200322 yr Author Originally posted by metallix the things you own end up owning you. so true. but acutally the bank owns my, my first born and my next of kin. ah the joys of the home ownership the american dream
February 26, 200322 yr Author i would say my most prized possession is my house, but i don't really own it.
February 26, 200322 yr Originally posted by ubejinxed ah the joys of the home ownership the american dream you might want to read thisarticle. It's all about that.
February 26, 200322 yr Author that's a good article, i'm still reading it but this makes me unhappy: "Scores of epidemiological studies and Oswald's own research underscore the tight link between status and health. Seniority at work is a reliable predictor of lifespan after retirement. Status has an even bigger effect on lifespan than smoking. A pair of economists documented this phenomenon in a famous study of Academy Award winners. Oscar winners live at least three years longer than Oscar nominees. The gold statue, it seems, is literally a life pass. ( As if Tom Hanks and Julia Roberts need another perk! ) "
February 26, 200322 yr well, not one thing, but my hello kitty collection. my 50+ shoe collection. i know it sounds kinda lame, but these things are dear to me. and im obsessed with collecting shit.
February 26, 200322 yr ^ I think that status is relative as well. You could have great status as a big banking CXO, but not the simple love and respect of your family. Really it's all about what validates you personally. I'm thinking that I'm a huge success becasue I can walk to work. that's a great bit of satisfaction that so many other people dont get. I mean how many commuters got to see a hawk ripping up a pigeon on their trip to work? well I did and I felt privaleged to get to see it. Success is relative.
February 26, 200322 yr Kilo, you're very right. I would love to be able to walk to work too. Walking is one of the things I enjoy the most....
February 26, 200322 yr Author i agree, i used to be able to ride my bike to work and i really enjoyed the interaction with my surroundings. the ride home was always the best feeling of freedom! now i drive home and have to fight with traffic, and by the time i get home i'm not happy anymore. riding the bike home, was such a good feeling. i wish the economy would get better so i could find a closer job. i don't live in the city to commute out dammit!
February 26, 200322 yr theres a certain stuffed animal ive had since i was like 2.... its older than my girlfriend.. :king: (course shes 12.....just kidding...)
February 26, 200322 yr Author ^^^ hahahaa me too!! my sock monkey affectionately named Mr. Monkey. sometimes i'm embarrased about it, but he deserves his props.
February 26, 200322 yr its weird.....kids that just start writing are peeping out my stuff, and they see this stuffed animal and are like, what the fuck? choze still has one of those??? its a hit with the women. my girl thinks its cute. :P
February 26, 200322 yr My most prized possessions are my memories...I kept all the (good) notes passed in class back in high school, old love letters, pictures, etc... I love going through all that stuff and reminiscing and shit (I'm such a pussy).
February 26, 200322 yr i also have a sock monkey that is on the list!!! my late great-grandmother made it for me...and then i threw it on a cigarette and it went up in flames and had its legs amputated, and my mom doctored it up for me :rolleyes:
