PS: There was an identity crisis in Elmo identification. Not surprising given their identical genome and phenotype. Forgive me. It gets hard to tell canto speaking from non-canto speaking.
This morning when I woke up and looked out of my window, I was overwhelmed with a crippling worry that the morning sun might bleach my Elmo and Ernie collection. You see my Elmo and Ernie collection sits on the window sill, silent and smiling.
A quick glance around my room will tell you I am an Elmo fan with all the Elmo stickers, soft toys, labels and bed sheet. (Yes! Bed Sheets!) I honestly went crazy recently when I received a parcel from YH containing not 1 but 2 Elmos and an Ernie. No idea why the preferential treatment but I am happy. =) And not to mention that 1 of those Elmo flew all the way from HK and to think that we referred to it as ‘shit for room decoration’ while they were trying to keep the surprise from me. Oh, the terrible sin!
With the sudden influx of Elmos, I took an inventory of all the Elmo items in my room just for the sake of it. It was interesting to note that this is a temporary accommodation while I am studying in this God forsaken island/continent. Here is the list:
Large Elmo - from SO. First Elmo he has ever gave me.
Small Furry Elmo - from SO.
Elmo with heart in mouth holding a “No fart in my room” sign - from YH. This Elmo is from HK and so CAN speak canto yah!
Small Furry Elmo - from YH. This one came from HK NUS! Can CANNOT speak canto!
Mini Elmo holding flower - from YH, minitoons I think!
Hand-Sewn Mini Elmo - from KM, every stich with love okay! –wide wide grin-
2 Elmo Stickers - from SO, each cost CAN$3, on one of my childish wimps
2 Elmo Clothes Tag - from the Elmo PJs from YL
Elmo Bedsheet - from Mum. Seriously!
Long Elmo Dress PJs - from Mum. Love it!
Self drawn Elmo on Door – artistically done =)
Elmo Ruler – from Mum when I was in Sec 3 [Childrens’ Day]
Goodness me! 12 in total! And not to mention I have a large talking Elmo back home, that’s from YH and KM =). A small hand puppet Elmo from SO, etc etc etc I mean you get the drift. If I were to name every Elmo I have… this entry shall never end since I am still acquiring.
Goodness I love my Elmos. Ok I guess I am tired and ought to go drift to bed. Here is me ending another random post.
P/S: Any idea to prevent bleaching of my Elmos and Ernies, do let me know!
