Alright alright... enough drooling and admiring... let's get on with the REAL STUFF.
---------------
WHY SHOULD WE HAVE SPECIAL SOFT TOYS?
First of all, I am not asking all of you to buy lots and lots of soft toys and stack them in your room (or boxes!!!)
I am not into wasting space and attracting dust.
But I want to educate you on the importance of having special soft toys in your life.
Toys that connect to you in a deep and special way.
Toys that represent someone important to you.
In fact, all of us should have ONE toy that represents our alter ego (meaning our other self)
Living in this fast pace hectic world, many of us find it hard to express our feelings and intentions.
Some of us live like robots whereas some of us try too hard to express our thoughts, resulting in lack of the ability to listen to others.
But whatever it is, the truth is almost all of us have at least 2 different sides to our personality.
So without further ado, let me introduce to you my alter ego, WOOFY!!!!
She has been with me for 14 years going on to 15 years this year! (since I was 9 years old)
And she has been a big part of my life.
So what is Woofy like?
- Very cute
- A great listener
- A fun dancer
- Squeeky singer
- Super loving
- Super lovable
- Never angry
- Self Sacrificial (always please others at the sake of self)
-> Isnt she sooooooooooooooooooooooooo cute?? (not me larh!)
Basically she is everything I wanted to be deep down inside.
For me, being perfect is simply being like woofy. (maybe except for the squeeky singing part..lol)
By perfect of course I dun mean like God, but in human terms, being totally the person you are deep down inside, living out the best in you.
And woofy represents the best in me (yar, except that she hasnt bath in awhile...hee hee)
That's why I like to express myself through her... always carefree, happy, joyful, jumping and dancing around... the total opposite of how I am like in the real world.
-> Dare to be CRAZY!
As you grow older, more and more responsibities, stress and obstacles you have to face in your daily life, and such conditions often "mould" us to be uptight, overly serious and lose our sense of humor. :(
Definitely I am not asking you to throw aside all responsibilities and start to play toys only (urm riiiiggght), I am just sharing that life is not easy and the hectic lifestyle in singapore oftens quench the creative spirit in us.
AND THAT IS WHY YOU NEED A CHANNEL TO UNLEASH YOUR CREATIVE JUICES!!!
I am not saying it MUST be a soft toy, but let me give you a few reasons why using soft toy as a channel for your creative juices to flow is a good idea.
Also with each reason I will help give TIPS on how you can choose your soft toy.
NO 1: THEY LOOK LIKE YOU (with face, body, hands and legs)
[you may argue that some toys are totally deformed and do not look anywhere near a human being. My friends, that is why this blog entry is for... to teach you how to choose la, you goondoo!! :) ]
TIP: Get one with good facial expressions.
NO 2: THEY ARE AT YOUR MERCY (You control them!)
They are your servants, and they will never oppose you in whatever you do.
You're the BOSS... but do be a nice one okay?
I do not wish to see different soft toy parts all around your room.
TIP: Do not get human-kind of soft toy. Preferably animals as we won't subconsciously think that they are equal to us.
NO 3: THEY CHEER US UP
Sometimes when you are down, surround yourself with these adorable furry things somehow make you feel that they understand what you are going through, and that you are not alone.
Also your furry friends are able to cheer your friends up especially if you have just make your friends angry.
TIP: Get one with big eyes and one with flexible arms. Able to flow with whatever moods you are in.
HIGH FIVES!!!!
SAD :(
MELACHONIC
NO 4: THEY ALLOW YOU TO BE FREE AND FUNNY (CREATIVE)
Once you are comfortable with your special soft toy, there are sooooooo many things you could do with it when you are totally at ease with your mind.
Of course you may wish to do it in your privacy in case you will stumble people around you.
TIP: Be free and flow along with what your inner child want to do. You'll be surprised how much you enjoy playing and 'experimenting' with the toys.
--> Dress them up, get them to read the Bible, Pile on top of each other, Play with one another, Pray with you (have a mini prayer meeting), Play games etc... Just be free =)

STEP BY STEP PROCEDURE TO CHOOSING A RIGHT TOY
#1 Scan the shop a few times, there may be a toy or 2 that you feel like taking a few glances to.
If there is none, move on to the next shop.
#2 Approaching the toy, be focus and stare right into the eyes of the soft toy. (do not buy any toys without eyes, they are practically useless)
#3 Ask yourself truthfully: Do you feel a warm feeling inside your heart? Something like an "Awwwwwhh" kinda feeling? If you do, go on to next step...
#4 Squeeze the soft toy thoroughly. Can it have many expressions? Or does it only have one expression throughout? Go on to next step if it is flexible.
#5 Put down the toy and walk a few steps away from it , do you feel a hinge of sadness from the soft toy? Do you yourself felt that if you dun buy it you will regret it even though there is no rationality in buying it? If yes, go on to next step...
#6 GO TO THE CASHIER AND BUY IT.
Me, the expert has regretted a few times for not buying certain toys that have some sort of connection with me.
Simply because I have LOADS of toys in my house.
Do not make the same mistake as me!!
I hope this entry benefits you in choosing the right toy either for yourself or your loved ones.
Let's make this world a better place to live in with cuteness and warmthness prevailing over ugliness and boringness Amen? :)
Before I end, let me show you a TRUE LIFE testimonial of how having a SOFT TOY will change you for the BETTER....
