More things about me...

These are amber encased insects... I have an almost morbid fascination with amber and the things that it contains. For some reason these time capsules, from many years back, grab my attention and just won't let go. These specimens give us a glimpse into the distant past, from which we were born. I wear a scorpion amber around my neck everyday (you'll all get to hear the story behind it in my speech) and it rarely leaves my person due to its sentimental value. I have worn this necklace for around ten years (except for a brief, frantic period during which I lost it.) Picture from: upload.wikimedia.org
