Is it normal to collect/appreciate scars?

I am a very clumsy person, and end up getting hurt a lot. But I don't really mind it, and I usually get some pretty cool-looking scars. Don't get me wrong, I'm not a self-harmer (there are some word scars on my arm from taking a pocketknife to myself, but it wasn't a self-harm insicent, it's complicated), but I do get hurt a lot, and I love looking at and counting all the scars I get, and sometimes making up stories for them, to sound more interesting than how I actually got them. It feels awesome when people notice my scars or injuries and mention them. Is that normal?

    I do the same thing except I actually have some pretty cool stories to go with them. ( train hopping, domestic violence, and drunken stupidity mostly).
    Normal.

    Same here. I know this isn't really scar related, but there's a tumblr blog that's dedicated to bruises. Who knows? You might be able to find one dedicated to scars too. You probably could find some on flickr.
