What is your proudest possession ?

My rainbow high doll collection, also my seal plush, and my Twilight Princess Zelda figure. My possessions changed over time besides the TP Zelda. Kinda hard to choose.
 
I have a few things that im pretty attached to. I’d say my most beloved object would be my stuffed animal. It’s a koala bear that i’ve had since the day i was born. Another thing I have is an urn with my mother’s ashes. I also have some medals and awards that i’m proud of! For more materialistic things i would say my car which is the first car i bought myself, my laptop, and my phone.

Those are the things i would be throwing out the window to save if the house was on fire.
It's always great to have stuff that you worked hard for and paid for yourself, but I totally get a stuffed animal having value because of who gave it to you. I still have this orange kitten that my grandmother gave to me when I was a newborn. I personally don't have any memory of me with it when I was that age because I was too young to remember anything lol, but I remember the love and how it comforted me back then.
 
I have this Jigglypuff felt hat and Pikachu vinyl sticker I won from a Pokemon X/Y battle competition at a PAX South gaming convention way back when. The sticker is still on my laptop, but the hat never fit my giant noggin, lol.
 
i don’t know why, but ive always been so fond of my 3DS that im so overprotective when people touch it. 😂
it’s not my fault though! my cousins could be licking the sauce off their fingers after eating food and then reaching for my DS, like no no, please go wash your hands first before you give me a heart attack! it’s like those films with the scenes in slow motion, i swear my reflexes only kick in when someone with sticky saucy food hands reaches for my DS. 😭
 
Besides sentimental items, I guess my Oboe, Clarinet and Bass Clarinet. I'm proud of these because I paid for all of these with my own money (and musical instruments are definitely NOT cheap 😓)
 
My Switch or my collection of plush. I'm not sure "proud" is the word to use, but they make me feel very comfortable, happy and relaxed.
 
Also that movie poster from the 1970s I got (from an old Swedish film called "Polare" ("Buddies" I think it's the English title). I absolutely love Swedish stuff from the 70s and the whole aesthetic is just love *french kiss*. Plus it got some cute guys and a gal on it :D
 
I’ve posted here before with my Croconaw plush, but this possession means a lot to me. It’s my Black Belt which I earned in martial arts. I’ve been bullied in the past, and practicing has gotten me through the bullying. It helped me build up my confidence enough to be able to deal with it in a non-violent way. My mindset has completely turned around since my promotion day and I can honestly say I’m a happier person because of it. This is my proudest possession because it changed who I was as a person and although I don’t practice anymore, the memory is always there. It helped me get through my depressive stage in school and start thinking on a more positive note. I’d recommend martial arts to anyone, especially if you are battling depression or any other hardships in life.

Of course, I crossed out my name and the city of the school. I’m not ready to share my real name on a public forum yet.

I have a boxed NES from the original US launch. Complete with posters, grey light gun, etc. It’s in really good condition too. I also have a few boxed NES/SNES games with the original receipt inside from when they were purchased.
 
My most proudest procession was my car. I don’t currently have it anymore, but I can’t say I ever owned anything that I was so proud of before. It was a 2008 vw beetle. It was the first car I ever had, and I paid for it myself. I worked so hard for two years at my very first job earning minimum wage. When I finally got it all paid off, it felt like the best feeling ever. Unfortunately, someone crashed me, and It was a total loss. Even though I don’t have it anymore, I think it was a procession I was the most proud of.
 
I have a lot of super precious items — they're all a part of my music collection! I collect CDs, Vinyl, and Cassette Tapes for my favorite musicians. I think my most complete collection is for a super niche indies artist.
 
I'm not sure what your proudest possession means but I value my video games alot, and I like books and movies alot too. I feel like it gives a way to "experience" things you wouldn't otherwise if you have alot of things in your way in life.
 
I'm honestly not sure. I have a few.
One is my pillow pet. I remember being over at my grandma's house before my 4th birthday, and she brought me over to her computer and asked me to pick out a pillow pet, and then getting it on my birthday.
Another is my webkinz. They got me into collecting stuffed animals and just playing computer games in general.
Then there's my Year of Luigi 3DS. It may be a bit dirty and outdated but I love that thing. It's suprisingly a LOT better than my New Nintendo 3DS XL (even tho I didn't take all that great care of it as a kid), so I guess that says something.
 
My Splatoon collection! Some of these are from New York, UK, and all over Japan. I'm the go to person for things Splatoon amongst my friends and family so I get gifted things as well. It pays off to be known for that one thing :sneaky:. I sometimes just sit in front of here and stare, it makes me soooo happy.

yes, that's a real life N-Zap '89
 
my kpop albums and manga both play a huge part in my life because i collected them and it made me happy
 
Talking about actual items, not something like "my dog" or "my rights", as I don't see animals as a item that you own and we all have rights. 😄
Came here to say my dog haha. I AM proud to own her, damnit haha, but I see your point.

Hmm...so something I'm proud of would feel different to something sentimental. I wouldn't necessarily proudly show off my grandmother's silver clock that she left me, for example, because not everyone would get it? It's important to me though.

I am proud of my home. I grew up in a poor household, in social housing. My school's were mixed, so if ever I got invited to someone's house who wasn't from social housing like me, I would often marvel at their "beautiful house". Looking back, I think they were quite ordinary houses, just I didn't understand when I was small that this was normal for most people. I think I was more concerned that my school dresses were homemade and the kids with the bought-school uniform were noticing and remarking on it, and the fact my shoes regularly fell apart, but my mum would just stitch them up and tell me they were fine (only for them to fall apart the next day at school again). I had to be quite thick skinned in my teen years, when people started pointing out these things to me.

I was also a poor adult for a long time. Wasn't fun. Could sometimes be shameful. Then life changed. Like almost overnight. Now I am an actual millionaire (eek, still feels weird to type that), working in screenwriting with a huge house in a nice area. I am VERY proud of this, though I do try not to flaunt my wealth though or rub it in anyone's face, cos that's just a crappy attitude. I haven't felt any need to go back and let everyone who ever hurt me know about how my life turned out either, cos I think "proving people wrong" means you're still holding a grudge and letting them know they live in your head rent free.

But every time I walk up to my big black iron gates and see my great big beautiful house, I feel like "Wow, I'm so proud this is mine. I can't believe this happened to me".
 
I think among my most sedimental possessions are my littlest pet shop collection (about 120 pets, not many but enough to fill 2 boxes), my handmade matryoshka doll from my uncle that bought it from an artist friend, and my plushy doll my mum made when I was smaller. I value my possessions very closely but of course I value my family and friends a lot more. Im just not too big on materialistic behaviour lmao
