I used to wear a rosary but it fell off my neck, hit the ground, and shattered into a hundred or so pieces.

Now I wear a St. Benedict medal (not yet the medal of St. Benedict). It really, really needs to be cleaned with some silver polish.

I got my first chastity ring for Christmas, '01. It was really special to me; it was the "gift-wrapped heart" ring and on either side of the heart was a tiny diamond from my grandma's wedding ring. However, soon after I got back from WYD '02 I lost my ring while doing laundry. Who loses their chastity ring? I was like, geez God... what are You trying to tell me here?

Anyway, for the past 2 1/2 years I didn't have a chastity ring, but for this past Christmas, my mom got me a new one which I wear every day, along with my scapular. The ring she picked out for me has a dove in the middle, with flames (I think they are flames) on either side. It's spin cause the dove reminds me of the Holy Spirit and especially the fruits of the HS: charity, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, generosity, gentleness, faithfulness, modesty, self-control, chastity. The last three are especially germane.

One crucifix. One Benedictine medal. One Miraculous medal.

I'd probably have more, but... that'd be a little too much in my humble opinion. As long as I have my crucifix and my Miraculous medal... I'm good.

I have my crucifix and then a jeweled cross that I got from a dear friend. On my crucifix (I forgot to add) I have a miraculous medal.

You feel fine not wearing my patron's medal?

hmmm... this is an interesting topic.
I wear a replica of Pope John Paul II's crucifix, a Miraculous medal, an Ave Maria metal finger rosary, a Saint Brigid/ St. Patrick medal, and a St. Christopher medal.

And I wear my rosary around my wrist at all times... I don't know if that counts, but whatever. ^_^
