[IFNT COLL] My Infinite Collection Introduction

Infinite means the world to me as they've helped me become a better version of myself. Not only that, I'm so grateful to Inspirits for helping me grow as well. Recently I had an application essay with the topic What is your best community? and I instinctively wrote about how the Inspirit community has given me so much strength and how I always want to give back to the fandom. I hope that my blog posts have helped Inspirits and the broader audience with better understanding Infinite merchandise and Korean merchandise in general. Now I'll begin a series of posts to reveal my entire Infinite collection that also compiles my unboxing reviews of those items.

I have been collecting since March 2013 and am really proud of this collection, though of course it's not complete and I'm missing quite a few of the more recent releases due to the many versions being released. Everything is official and was purchased new except for BTD Type B (black) and Over The Top.
To begin, I store majority of my Infinite merchandise on my shelves here. The bottom shelf is all Infinite stuff, from right to left: drama OSTs, mini albums, singles, full length albums, repackaged albums, Japanese releases, photo essay books, Japanese DVDs, Korean DVDs, and Reality limited edition at the end. The shelf above on the left contains collection card binders, Season's Greetings boxes, IDEA photobook, and She's Back limited album. I'm running out of room so there are some items sadly not on display.
I display some of my Infinite memorabilia on these shelves. I put random items on here, like L'aile's goods, fansite fans, concert merchandise, calendars, T-money cards, and endorsement goods. You can also see the L's Bravo Viewtiful Part 2 poster on the left - many of my posters are framed and lying against my walls. I'll figure out how to show those later.

As you can see, my displays are quite messy. Once I finish this series of posts, I hope to reorganize my room and properly display my Infinite merchandise. Then, I would like to post my Inspirit room tour to properly show my displays.

I have been wanting to post about my Infinite collection for quite some time but still haven't figured out an efficient way to organize everything. I'll try my best and break up my collection into separate, detailed posts:

Infinite Korean Albums
Infinite Japanese Albums
Infinite Solo/Sub-Unit/Project Albums
 Infinite Other Albums
Infinite DVDs
∞ Infinite Miscellaneous Official Goods
∞ Infinite Events Merchandise
∞ Infinite Collaboration and Endorsement Merchandise
∞ Infinite Magazine Features
Drama Merchandise

I will provide links to the above posts as I finish them and will continue to update these posts as I collect more items. I'll also place all of these posts under the label "My Infinite Collection." Additionally, in each post I will provide links to my unboxing reviews of each item pictured, hyperlinked to (∞).

I'm really excited to be doing this extensive (and hopefully photo-heavy) blogging because I seldom take the time to look at every item I have. I hope you enjoy these posts as much as I do creating them and please ask if you have questions about anything.

    4. I know right? It feels so good to see how much Inspirit all around the world have collected and it always encourage me to keep collecting even tho my collection is very small (because I'm always broke ;;;) Haha, then I think I should be glad I did then xD

      Aww, don't mention it! Its my pleasure, really <3 Haha, yes will do! ^^

      Delete
    5. I hope you will continue to grow your collection! But the great thing about having a small collection is treasuring each item so dearly^^

      Delete
    6. Aww, thank you, I hope so too! I will slowly but surely collect all the album that I wanted, even tho it will take forever (the pain of still being a college student ;;) And yeah, you are right, because I have so little, I treasured each and every item more than anything <3

      Delete
    7. It's so tough being a college student and an Inspirit at the same time! But now that I just graduated college and started my first job, I hardly have any free time for Infinite :( That's actually why I'm so glad you're supporting me to blog - it motivates me to blog more,distract myself from work, and most importantly spend more time fangirling over Infinite! Hehe I'm so happy to meet another Inspirit like you^^ Keep treasuring your Infinite goods and fangirling~!

    8. Yes, indeed! It was not helping at all for me to collect their album when I'm literally broke all the time, cries ;;; Oh,really? Congratulations on graduating a though year of college and even get a new job! You are so lucky, I'm so jelly ;; Oh don't worry, at least you are a little bit richer now to collect all their item xD Haha, aww its an honour for me to know that I have such an effect to you ^^ And yeah, me too! I'm so glad that I stumble across your lovely blog <3 Haha, will do, and you too~!

      Delete
    9. Hehe I'm glad you still managed to get some Infinite albums anyways while in college^^ Thank you so much~ kk you're right, now I can fund myself to get more Infinite stuff^^ Aaah I'm so grateful for you~~ Whenever you have a question or just want to talk with an Inspirit, know that I'm always here!

      Delete
    10. Haha, yes I did, but it required a sacrification of sweat, blood and tears! xD Haha, you are much welcome ^^ Aww, thank you so much, I'm so glad <3 Ahh, yeah will do~! But I wanted to apologize as well because I keep answering as an anon because I am too shy to reveal myself ><

      Delete
    11. Haha I hope from here on out, you won't need to sacrifice as much to get by college as an Inspirit! Don't worry about it at all, that's the beauty about being an anon! I'm just so happy you know that I've replied to you since I think you don't get email notifications. ^^ it's all good!

      Delete
    12. Haha, I hope so too as I can't stop collecting their album but I cannot bear my wallet crying all the time also ;;; Haha, I'm just worried that you might get annoyed that I kept replying as an anon, but I just don't know how to message you personally either >< Ahh, don't worry! As I said, I constantly check your blog for new updates so I won't miss anything! ;)

      Btw, I saw your new updates, and you have so many Infinite's dvd ;; But anyway, I can't wait for your new updates!^^

      Delete
    13. You can message me personally rather than on here! If you want, I can give you my email, facebook, kakaotalk, line, or wechat if you prefer :)

      Hehe thank you^^ I'm slowly updating my Infinite collection!

      Delete
  3. Haha that sounds good! But I just shut down my fb acc and I never actually have kakaotalk, line or wechat as I'm not a really sociable kind of person >< But maybe email will do as I frequently use my email so there should be no problem ^^

    You are much welcome and fighting!

    1. Haha honestly, I'm not really social either! I do most of my "social stuff" on this blog because people I know in real life don't know about my Inspirit life. My personal email is macedonia14@gmail.com if you want to email instead^^

      Hehe fighting to you too!~

      Delete
    2. Hahah, really? I thought you are a very social person, because you are very friendly and talkative! ^^ Haha, me too as I don't really comfortable telling people abt my fandom >< Ahh, okay! So I will start to email you from now on instead! ;)

      Delete
    3. Aww, you're so sweet! I used to be the most anti-social person, but Infinite has made me really want to meet other Inspirits, so that's how I became more social :) Hehe yah! It's so hard telling people about being in a fandom.

      Okay!~ I'll look out for you email^^
