My US Memorabilia and collectibles  

Posted by hidayah

I'm typing this entry because I'm trying to keep myself awake after done reading Chapter 3: Organizational Structures and Cultures for my project management class. The topic itself sounds boring, so you can imagine the reading! :) It's an hour away before my Project Control for Machines class starts. I've been wanting to share about memorabilia and collectibles that I have and would like to continue collecting....

1. United States 50 States Quarters Mint Collection

I'm sure people who have been to the US would loooooove to get all these quarters in a special book/board designed for this purpose... I had most of them when I was an undergrad, and it displays the states and it's symbol behind the quarters (cool!)... It looks like this..



This is an example of a quarter of South Dakota State and the year it's officially produced is encripted below the coin... so imagine getting 50 states in the US of these!! I'll keep you peeps posted once I completed the collection :)

2. Pennants



I'm just crazy about these things... whenever I go, I must be in search of one of these... size does not matter... but I prefer the large ones -- so far I've pennants from all the universities that I visited, all sports club and team of the cities I visited, not to mention some places that I visited, too.. I wonder why Malaysia didn't make these things (there might be at some places, but not that much)...


3. Shot glasses

Here's another stuff that I'll buy when I'm visiting anywhere (including the airports :P)... the ones that I have collected during my undergrad days are currently displayed at my mom's house in KL... It's neat and cute... plus I'll always have the memories of the place/logo displayed on the glass in my mind whenever I'm looking at it..

So those are the main stuff that I would like to continue on collecting while I'm in the US... and I also collect postcards and collectible plates -- but this started way before I came to the US... and I'll buy them whenever I'm looking for the pennants and the shot glasses. Fridge magnets, toothpick holders, fork and spoon sets, you may ask? For the time being I guess I'll focus more on the collection that I already started... but definitely will look into starting the fridge magnet collection in the near future..
