Reclaiming Joy in Corporate Slog
As a senior nearing graduation, I've been reflecting on how to balance my creative writing impulses with the harsh reality of needing money to survive.
I've come to a simple conclusion: collecting items like Labubu, or blind boxes from Pop Mart, can bring joy and enrichment to one's life.
- Funko Pop
- Pokémon
- Baseball cards
- Other memorabilia
These items represent an individual's interests and can be a way to express oneself through tangible objects.
For me, a collector of Nyotas and Hironos, the appeal is never-ending and self-sustaining.
The collecting process is a legitimate hobby, similar to scrapbooking or golf.
