Wat is so GOOD abt a Teddy Bear?

jee, dats the question i've been asking myself for the past dunno how many years. i mean, i just can't understand wat makes it so lovable. Girls seem to go crazy over it ( well most of them i guess). But of cos, wats in their mind is " wah the bear so cute!!"

Well, ppl, today i've gone 1 step higher than that. Instead of saying its CUTE, i will say that its not easy making one.

I went to shop for a teddy bear just now ( and dun ask me why). So, the very first time i went in that shop, i was like, goodness, too many bears!!! (the shop is at Seah Street. At the Raffles Hotel.Sasha's Bear)
When i enter ah, wah the owner super friendly lor. We talk and talk and i just got to know that his shop been there for 12 years now.Thats not all folks, he even tell me how to choose a bear. Today was like shopping cum KNOWLEDGE input day. okok come, i share with u some.

Most of the cuddling bear are made of synthetic wool lor. dats why its freaking smooth and soft. THose slightly rough ones are real leather ones. From the mountain sheep. So dats mostly for decoration lor, and of cost costing a lot more! THen there's the eye. there are so many types of eyes. the real button ones, or the 2 shades eye or the small button type. wah too many lor. and these some which look so black dat it looks beautiful. THen theres' the nose!!! a leather nose, a normal nose, or a sewn on nose(the most expensive cos of its worksmanship) the paw pads also play a role. either leather or normal material.
If u notice, the ass and the paw of the bear got this small beads thingy. dats for the weight of the bear. if not it would be soo light. The most expensive ones are mostly from Merry Thought. THey make the nicest bear and most expensive lor. THere are a few bear which is 100 years old in his shop (which is not for sale) killer!!
And every bear has its own face. hehehe interesting ?? hahaha i know its boring, but ahha it really interest me lor. There are so many things abt bears!!! haaha

okok here comes the better news for today.so i went to the sing post to send the bear off to bla bla bla. then the one attended me at sing post, hahah one hot chick. hahah but she seems very very quiet. freaky. not so the kinda chick she look like. macam MINAH ah, but so quiet. hahah first day maybe ah hahahaha.

okok dats all folks, i write too much today ah . damn hahaha.. okok peace, cheerio, tomolo got work, darn!!!! tatatata
