Yay, p'wushies! 👶

-- After I looked at some of Marrymightyena's posts of the collections of plushes he owns, I wanted to do something similar. And so I collected every plushy I could find and put them next to each other as a way of making a group photo of some sort. I can't remember every origin of my collection's plushes, but there are at least some I do remember how I got them. There's a giraffe plush I named Tommy, and I must've got it way back when I was around 2 or 3 years old! Same goes for the snake that surrounds all the other plushes in this photo. The brown bear, which I simply named Brown as a reference to the brown bear character from ''The Little Polar Bear'', is a plush my mother got me when I was just born, and this also goes for the faint-white little ducky that's sitting in the middle of all plushes. The bigger yellow duck, named Quacker, I received from my bus driver as a present, back when I was in Elementary School (thank you so much, Ellie! I love it!). The snake surrounding all plushes originates from roughly the same time period as Tommy and the faint-white ducky. The bee, I'm not really sure of, but I ~believe~, I received it when my younger brother was born. The Yoshi, Tails and orange tiger plushes were carnival booth prizes I won after playing some games at said carnivals. The giant Husky in the center I got from a giant construction market, namely an Ikea -- I believe I put more info on another photo upload I've done previously of this Husky plush. The white lion was a souvenir I bought quite recently, just before we got back from Drievliet, a Dutch amusement park. The monkey, and also the pig, again used to belong to my younger brother when he was little, but because he's now way too old to sleep with plushes in bed (and this also goes for me, obviously, but I like collecting plushies), he donated them both to me, or at the very least he didn't care about the monkey and pig anymore, so he didn't mind them being on my room. The huge green Stegosaur plush, I'm a bit foggy on the details, but I think it is one of those plushes that I won at a carnival. The final one is the most recent, and was the inspiration behind uploading a ''Plush Collection'' photo in the first place -- it's the smaller, all-white-colored Husky leaning against the bigger Ikea one. Today (as of uploading this, June 16th, 2023), I went and visited the famous 1838 Amsterdam zoo, Artis, with a group of people from the Happy Mug location, the same location I recently created some of my artworks (like the one where I'm sliding down a water slide, and the one where my seal OC Meira is swimming around in a pool at an abandoned zoo). And MAN was it a fun trip! Just before we would head back to Happy Mug, I managed to get permission from the group leader to visit the souvenir shop close to the zoo entrance, and buy the plush -- although, I was actually planning on buying a bigger one. But that one cost almost 50 Euros, so I wnet with the smaller variant which was only roughly 38 Euros. I'm glad I could afford this little souvenir to this awesome zoo trip, even though I first thought that 38 Euros was a ~bit~ steep for a plush. But it's the memory that counts!
