The Misadventures Down Under 2: Project Build A Teddy

There was this quirky little program in uni today organized by the Student Ambassador Club, Project Build A Teddy. At first we didn't give much thought to it because the guy who promoted it after lecture was so damn ugly no f##ks were given but later because a friend of mine came round asking we all decided to go.

Basically the program goes like this. You order a teddy bear, you stuff it (sounds like the toy factory got free labour...), and you choose to donate it or keep it. All earnings go to the Melbourne Royal Childrens' Hospital for pain and palliative management in the paediatrics department and the teddies go to the children in the ward (awww...). Which is pretty good because although kids are annoying, they are still humans, and humans have feelings, and one does not deny care to any human being in pain, even though they are annoying little kids... (•‿•)

We got there after lectures, got our teddies, made a wish and started stuffing. Every teddy also has his/her/its own birth certificate. And you can name your teddy too!

So...

Tadaa!!! o(≧∇≦)o

This is Benny. I named him Benny because... I can. Thou shalt not knowest the meaning behind the name of thee... (Grins) Nah actually if you know who my latest celeb crush is then it's a dead giveaway...（=｀〜´=）

Benny was wearing a scarf too, but his big-ass birth cert covered it up and now you don't see it.
So knowing that Benny (and my money) was going to go for a good cause it really is a nice warm, fluffy, feeling inside. (ღ˘⌣˘ღ)

Good luck Benny! Get well soon kids!

P.S. Geez these Japanese emoticons are really fun! (≧ ω ≦)
