One of my favourite hobbies at school days was collecting stamps. Ofcourse, even now i enjoy collecting them but somewhere in between i had lost touch with it. May be it was because i didn't know how to continue it or that nobody else (especially my friends) found it amusing and interesting. And having a hobby like that of your friends was more important at that age. But now it doesn't matter if someone else enjoys it or not, so there are a lot more stamps added to my collection. Moreover, now, i have a hubby and a brother- in- law who are mad about collecting coins so i too get boosted by them. I don't like collecting them through opening an account at the India Post and similar ways but i like the ones that's stuck on the posatge covers. But nowadays that rarely happens.
The other hobby i thoroughly enjoyed as a school girl was to collect the pictures of the famous actress Sridevi whom i adored! Ranging from post cards to tiny/ huge paper cuttings i had some hundreds of her photographs.
There were other hobbies too like drawing and painting, doing craftwork etc etc., but none like Philately (whose name i learnt later) and collecting pictures.
