My name is Scott and my hobby is collecting stickers (贴纸). It is popular with many people because it is not an expensive hobby.

I began to collect stickers in 1938. One day when I was playing in the house of my neighbor, Bob, he showed me his sticker albums(册子). I was happy to see so many beautiful stickers of different shapes and sizes. He gave me a few from his collection, and my interest in stickers started from that day.

At first, I kept my stickers in sticker albums. Later I found it difficult to move the stickers in the albums, so I decided(决定) to keep them in boxes.

Most of my stickers are from my parents. They often buy me nice stickers. I also exchange(交换) some of my stickers with my aunt. She is an air hostess (空姐) and she buys me stickers from different countries around the world.

In my free time, I like to bring out all my lovely stickers, lay them on the floor and take a look at them. I really enjoy doing this and it helps me recall(回忆) who gave them to me, where and when I got them.
