I remember how much I used to love my bicycle when I was eight, and the agony I used to experience when I would see my cousin blissfully riding it to school!:flare:
What is your most priced possesion and how much you are possessive about it?

They say one shouldn't be too much obsessive with 'materialistic things' but I can't help being obsessive with my computer and a camera my father has got from about twenty years. And yes, my diaries and photo-albums and some books.

My movie collection..i really sweat when someone wants to borrow one of my dvds :lol: :lol: same goes for my books..
I had some bad experience (with dvds being lend and never returned and books being returned eventually in a really bad condition). So i only lend them to my mom and my brother ;)

I don't want to sound lame, but it is most certainly my computer. The emotions are feel to it sometimes are just... wrong for emotions felt towards to a machine, but I can't help it. I even need to leave the computer working each night because I can't sleep without its humming. This really sounds like my favorite movie, haha.

As long as you don't have a huge belt buckle you can play my guitars, other than that, is't my space that i am possesive of.

Not possessive really, but I'm very attached to some of my pairs of shoes and boots. Obviously, no one would want to borrow them or use them (not like a computer or a dvd). But I get really upset when pairs of shoes I really like are too worn out to wear or when I know I have to get rid of them. I'm just a sucker for shoes. It's so girly, but it's so true. ;)

My father's gold ring...The face of it depicts a Llama grazing....he bought it in Chile when we lived there and gave it to me before he died.....haven't taken it off since then...
Will give it to my daughter one of these days.

Hmmm...well, my dad's very old camera which I somehow decided is now mine. Some of my books, my laptop mainly because it now has all of my work on it. And a pair of boots which have a similarity to ice-skates, were quite expensive at the time but I worked for a period just to get those...I'll probably keep them forever just for the memory!

OK I'm going to try to post a pic, but i doubt it works.

I have a pendent that my husband gave me after the birth of our first son. It is a trophy of sorts. Mason weighed 10.9 and was born in the living room while all of our friends and family watched. I thought I deserved a trophy! I always wear it, but most people don’t know what they are looking at. Do you?

Definitely my books and my guitar. I get very nervous when I let people play my guitar; you'd think it were a baby or something.

What kind of guitar do you have?

I am possessive about my piano, my hubby got a bonus a couple of years ago and presented a brand new piano of my dreams to me, just like that (sweet!). So, I really dislike it when people want to yank open the cover and bang on it .... **shudders**

... at the risk of sounding snobby, that instrument is destined to play Chopin ... not a cheap rendition of chopstix .... grrrr! :crash:

I have a Washburn acoustic/electric. I love everything about it, the smell of the wood, the color, the sound of perfect harmony that is so thick you can taste it.
When I play this guitar, not only can I hear the music but also can I taste it, feel it, and smell it. I love it!!
I wanted to get a Taylor, but when I went to buy it, it was a lot more than I was told it would be. So I found a Washburn that was pretty much the same, except for the price.

I love it!!

My car. It's a Suzuki XL 7. I spend the best 2 hours a day in my car with whatever music I want as loud as I want. I can listen to the same thing over and over or change in the middle of a song. I don't have to talk to anyone if I choose not to. And I don't have to do anything for anyone. I just drive and think of anything or nothing.
