Of toys... and more toys!

yesterday,

i finally watched Toy Story 3! i don't usually rate movies, but upon five stars i would give it a 5! 

it's been a long time since i laughed so hard in the cinema. the part when that Mr. potato man had to use a piece of tortilla as his body to merge his parts together was really ROFL!

another part that made me laugh equally hard was when poor Buzz Lightyear got reset into his spanish mode and started speaking in spanish to Barbie Jessie (thanks for the correction hh!). another ROFL x10000! i was laughing so much until i couldn't read the subtitles properly. so don't ask me what he said in spanish xD

then there's Lotso which, at first, i thought was a goody bear but noooo! so evil of him to brainwash all the other toys in the day care center. even after Woody saved his life, he actually DID NOT press the button to save them in return, that's just too mean. but in the end he didn't have a good life either eeks.

it was pleasant when Andy handed his box of toys over to Bonnie though. introducing them one by one to the lil girl, isn't that just aaaw. he still remembers vividly how he used to play with them and all.

watching Toy Story 3 only reminded me of my fellow old toys. all of them were awesome companions to my sister and i, really. 

thank goodness we still keep our drawing book, yeah my sister and i used to draw together. and there was once we decided to draw all our toys with their names written down, or else i might not be able to remember some of their names (those that we rarely play with).

we used to have an entire P Family, where all their names begin with 'P'. then slowly as new toys joined the family, we ran out of ideas and started giving other cha pa lang names. 

first up, one of our favourites, Pursy. she's a Hello Kitty trying to disguise herself as grapes. one of the grapes on her hoodie fell off :( we still love her nonetheless. she's always shy and very girly until sometimes her friends can't stand her girly-ness. 

and yup, this is Pursy again. with her hoodie removed! still loves her a lot!

then it's Pookey with the heart-shaped nose. we used to play with him most, even my parents know his name! cause he's very naughty, he always messes around but it's hard to be angry at him when we look at his cute face x)

Pooh is from cousin who got it from McDonalds, he's very manja and that's him. little things also call for mommy.

the lovely couple, Flora and Onnly. Onnly will always sing to Flora, then both sweet sweet.

this is Wooshy! by the face also can tell that he's mischievous. and hence, he's Pookey's best friend, or more like partner in crime.

not that the name is nameless, i can't recall his name, it's not in the drawing book either. but he's pure evil, so we no like him. byebye.

this is Polly who likes to sniff sniff everywhere with his big nose. his super power is to hold onto a surface firmly by sucking in air through his nose. amazing power despite his small size.

Hi Scarfey, he's the jolly Christmas bear who's forever happy happy joy joy!

Poodel is similar to Pursy, very girly and all she wants is to stay pweetty.

here's the lovely rabbit family, Hoppy, Hasly and Hazel. they share to munch on the carrots and the parents are very protective over their baby.

Patch! best part is his tongue :D i still remember, it was a gift my elder sister bought for her friend, but somehow didn't give it out, an extremely good news to my younger sis and me!!! cause got extra toy xD

i don't think we named him. he's big and old and slightly grumpy. in fact one of the oldest one we have, had it since we were baby :P see the fur also tangled and rough already.

the delicate baby, Fluffy. super gentle and soft, must be handled with care. we don't always play rough with him cause he's fur is really very soft and smooth and we want to maintain that for as long as possible!

Mousy! another quite naughty one!

Purple dog and Beesheuy, they got no fur so i keep them on my bed still :) btw, all of them used to be on an open shelf in my room. then my mom realised i'm allergy to fur, so now they're arranged in a transparent bag on top of my cupboard :( i hope it's not suffocating them!

besides those soft toys, we used to love playing the dolls a lot too. i don't think i have the patience to play with them anymore. the only thing we can do is change their clothes, and make them walk around for a while, talk talk then change clothes again xD

the dolls have no names cause they always get new names in different settings. 

(kindly do not focus on her naked body) poor thing. she lost her right leg ._. but she's still smiling haha, so i guess it's okay, just have to wear long shirt to cover her imperfection :X 

a confession: her hair was longer, but i gave her a hair cut -.- thinking it would grow back. obviously, it never ever grew, not even 1mm. 

this one also imperfect! don't know why out of nowhere got bald patch :X side view still looks okay though.

sorry if this picture gives you nightmare. i forgot how but the head just came off! and it became a freaky Barbie ever since x_x noticed her left palm also went missing. eeeks.

lastly, a perfect Barbie. she's newer, that's why so perfect, can do split somemore. except her hair's a little ruined by my sister who attempted to straighten it -.-

writing about them makes me feel so nostalgic all of a sudden. can't believe my sister and i used to spend hours in the room playing with them. somehow i don't believe that they can come alive cause i never gotten any special message from them before. 

but it's true, the toys have always been there for me. other than those injuries they get, nothing about them will ever change. it's a good thing to hear. 

come to think of it, the toys entered my life merely as a toy and nothing else. it's through time, along with my sister, we discovered each of their attitude. everytime we play with them, it's so automatic, this bear will be in this position, doing what he/she always does. 

the funny thing is, we were never bored of playing with them the same way over and over again.

i guess that's what make toys so loveable among children. because almost everything they cannot find in reality, can be found in the world of toys. things are made possible when the toys are forever willing to act in a way such that they fulfill a kid's wonders and dreams. 

i ♥ my toys.
