I still wear a sweatshirt my son gave me in 1987 when he graduated from Cal Berkely. It shows its wear but is still decent. Do you like old?

Even though it's faded and shapeless you can still read the words..."CALIFORNIA BERKELEY". We had a deal.

Each time he graduated from somewhere I'd get a sweatshirt commemorating it. So I have one for UCLA and one for the UNIVERSITY OF HAWAII. I wear them proudly even though the UH one is from 1999(Master's Degree) and the one from UCLA is from 2004 (Ph.d).

I like them because of the giver and the memories attached thereto.

Do you get attached to memories and to the mementos you treasure due to them?

I'm very sentimental. Are you too?
