Musicboxes

[crazypapercups]

I collect music boxes, globes, lockets and carousels.

And I noticed, all the music boxes I bought from Korea and Japan...
They play some of the saddest songs I have ever heard.

All my other music boxes play things like "Fur Elise" and "waltz of the flowers"

I just thought it was odd, that's all.

My favourite, I got from my latest trip to Korea, my grandad died a few years back and my grandma gave it to me, and told me I was his favourite, and that I should have it.
It's a globe with a little red fox in it, it's running through glass snow, and it's caught in mid-leap with one front foot on the ground
You shake it and it has blue glitter and snowflakes.
You can put betteries in it and it has a little blue light in it.
It plays a slow little tune, kind of like a lullaby?
It's a more of a sad rainy tune, rather than a snowy one?
I think of a lost, crying little girl when I hear it...
I can't really describe it.
I just know it makes me sad.
and yet, I keep it right next to me on my nightstand.

I miss him..

Awww. -hugglez.-
I was just thinking today about how I miss my grandparents. I wish I could've gotten to know them better.

I also wish I had a musical globe with a fox in it. :<
.. Hell, I wish I had -a- music box besides my Beauty & The Beast one.

I like the one with the hummingbird in it. :3

that one IS pretty nifty... :333

...You mean, you can't find any musicboxes to buy, or you can't afford them? o-o
flea markets are full of them, and antique shops?
idk, I just find them and buy them. :33

I never have time to shop, especially for specific things like that. x<
