30 Things You Don't Know About Moz: #2
The next factoid that you really don't wanna note down about Moz is that I was a stamp collector.
And a pretty serious one too. I had pen pals from all over the world - because I want the stamps. I just to search the garbage near my piano class looking for stamps.
Unfortunately, the explosion of email meant most of my pen pals stopped writing, and there was the small matter of college and university, which was the last time I was really active in collecting stamps.
Why stamps? Don't ask me. But if Maria Sharapova approves, I think I'm not doing too badly. Definately better than collecting debts, which is something I've been getting good at recently.
Some of the ones I'm able to show ...
A mint sheet commemorating the German reunification. I have the First Day Cover and complete set as well.
First Day cover commemorating the Installation of DYMM SPB Yang Di-Pertuan Agong Sultan Azlan Shah in 1989.
I just wish that I had more time to maybe go through again all the stamps I have, and all the memories of my stamp collecting day. Ms Sharapova, if you're interested in exchanging stamps, please do get in touch with me.
Updated Note: Early stamps did not have perforations - the holes punched into the stamp sheet to ease the separation of individual stamps, thus they had to be cut out.

I started collecting stamps wayyyy before PostCrossing was "invented" !!

pelf: Yes, I know. I'm just saying that I think your stamp collection must have inflated since you started PostCrossing.
infectioner: Haiyo ... you take to school to show off izzit? Hehee ... actually, I had one of my albums stolen before. But it was recovered following a spot check.
