rice garbage

artsy people consider junk shops
and hardwares stores as "The Place" to be in.
It is a given fact.

but i wonder if there are a lot of people who keeps stuff
just for the heck of it?

i have this habit of collecting anything that will
remind me of a good memory.
and these tickets, wrappers and other stuff
are the things that crowds my drawing table for
years now.
what's the point anyway?
nobody knows the sentimental value
of that pile of garbage but me?

why do i still keep them?
maybe for the reason that
every piece of that memory reminds me
of how i have lived my life.
how much i have enjoyed
or how sad i was at certain points.

so far, i have no regrets.
but i am thinking of making a couch from it.
yes, a couch.
at least it'll be functional.
who knows..
