Hello Kitty

Since I was a child I have always collected Hello Kitty. Everyone bought me Hello Kitty every year, so as the years go by I end up having a collection of Hello Kitty. People still buy me Hello Kitty stuff. I'm not as obsessed as I used to as a kid, but I'd be happy to accept gifts of Hello Kitty just to add to my collection.

Although I had many Hello Kitty objects thrown away, I still have a fair amount. I can't express how much Hello Kitty has taken over the world. There are literally Hello Kitty everything! From Hotels to gravestones.

Looking at my Hello Kitty collection now, I can spot Hello Kitty .. :

• Rug
• Table
• Clock
• Bag
• Models
• Plush toys
• Money box
• Poster
• Cushion 
• Lamp
• Purse
• Shower gel
• Shampoo
• Hand wash
• Phone charm
• Diary
• Notebooks 
• Crayons
• Make-up bag
• Hair bobble
• Tissue cover
• Stereo
• Ipod case

I'm quite impressed with my collection! Although I am moving on from Hello Kitty, I don't think I will ever throw away Hello Kitty's I've collected over the years. 

Thinking back to when I was a kid. Why did I like Hello Kitty so much? 

Maybe because I grew up loving cats. So yes, I am a cat lover so I guess that relates to why I like Hello Kitty so much. 

Did the colour have anything to do with it? ... Hello Kitty was mainly baby pink coloured but sometimes they'd make them baby blue too. I was never a big fan of pink but the majority of the Hello Kitty's I have are pink so I guess the colour doesn't really matter to me as long as it's Hello Kitty. 

Hello Kitty is just a cat with 2 black dots as her eyes, whiskers, a pink nose and a bow on one of her ear. The design is so simple yet everyone loves Hello Kitty.

I'm interested as to why is Hello Kitty so famous around the world?
