Not a shoebox, but a box nonetheless. It's about the size of two or three shoeboxes. I've got a lot of life! It includes...
- All the photos I have over here, including those of Stefanie, Mandy and a lot of people from back home.
- A 'Rugby Legends' video that I've never actually watched because I don't have a VCR.
- Seriously, there are a lot of photos in here.
- Pretty much all the letters and postcards I've received from EoFF'ers.
- My Marvin the Martian Chubby Memo pad.
- The Official Encyclopedia Of The Lost, by Nicky Andrews (Calliope) and Daniel Towns (me).
- Newspaper clippings from NZ.
- The Two Cow System that I wrote out back in Intermediate School.
- Various Christmas / birthday cards.
- Letters I never sent to people such as Stefanie, Emma, Mandy and Ally (although the latter one is only because I keep forgetting to send it).
- The mail from my broadband company detailing my account.
- More photos (from my school ball, this time).
- The peices of paper I held up while on webcam for Mandy.
- More letters from EoFF'ers and family.
- More photos.
- Little notes from past girlfriends and from my cousin, Sus.
- Some of the drawings I've done, including sadbunny, christmasbunny and "Doomy gets Ally, I get a medal."

- A feather.
- A little pad detailing all the reasons why I'm so great and why I'm Sus' best friend, according to Sus.
- The visitor tag I got when I went to Hatfield (the massive HQ for the company I work for) on a business trip (I forgot to give the tag back, oops...).
- The ariel to my phone that broke when I pulled Mandy down on to the bed and she landed on the phone. Oops.

Me and an ex-boyfriend used to keep all of our stuff like movie tickets, letters and whatever in a box which we called a "memory box". We broke up and I think he probably still has it under his bed (unless he threw it away). So it was kinda pointless anyway. I don't bother doing anything like that now, even with my own stuff. I don't need any bits of paper and stuff to keep my memories, if they are that important I'll remember them =)
The only thing I really have now is a box which I keep old letters from friends and penpals in, because I like looking back at them sometimes and remembering the people I used to talk to.

Most of my memories are in photo albums, so besides the albums I have two boxes of photographs, and a purple indian jewlery box with sea glass in it, and a few movie tickets, and stuff.

OHMYGOSH, Barenaked Ladies reference! *latches onto the forum topic like bubblegum to a shoe*
I have loads of journals and boxes I hide stuff in, and a giant metal army first aid kit with a lock on it for the more private stuff.

I use my whole room as a place to store memories. Somethings I can remember are:
-A ticket to a band concert with a friend in it
-A ticket to a play featuring the same friend
-Tons of pictures from all the places I've lived and the friends I've had.
-Tons of random drawings
-Things from my chilhood; stuffed animals, blankie, etc.
-And much more.
I'm such a massive packrat.
