You wanna hear people ramble? Well, I'm having a bit of a rough night, so let's talk fond memories!

For the Random Questions Collection: 10. If you own/owned plushies, which is your oldest and what's 1 fond memory you have with it?

I do still have a few plushies left from my childhood (most of the others are now in the care of my nephews). This guy is the oldest!

His name is Isak and he's a polar bear. Actually, let me rephrase that. His name is Isak because he is a polar bear. That's just the rules. Because in swedish both "Isak" and "polar bear" (isbjörn) have the word "ice" (is) in it. He used to be a lot more white and fluffy, but he's an old man now lol. I've had him my entire life. Literally! I got him the day I was born. Pretty sure there's some photos somewhere of him lying next to me at the hospital.

Anyway. When I think of my memories of him, one very fond and very random one comes to mind. Although, technically he wasn't even in it, it was still about him, so I'm gonna share that one.

If I remember correctly, it was either late november or early december 2008. At least I'm pretty sure it was that year? Which means I was 10 and it was only about 2 months after my mom had passed away. Me and my older sister were spending a few days? weeks? at our older brother's place. I can't remember exactly why, but I think it was because Dad lived outside the city and we were still trying to figure out how to get to school by bus and make the transition to that and such stuff more smoothly.

So. One night, my sister was helping me with my reading homework (I think it was?) and we ended up looking at this calendar (because she had to sign the homework?). Where my sister saw that it was Isak's name day on december 19th. (I don't know how common name days are in other countries. But basically it means that on almost every day in a calendar there are one or a few names written. If your name is on a day then that day is your name day. Which may or may not be celebrated, like people might wish you a happy name day and you might get a little money from your parents/grandparents/family).

Okay. Where were we? Right. My sister saw Isak's name day and straight up shouted out into the room "Isak! It's your name day on the 19th!!" Then there was a beat of silence, after which she continued (still low-key shouting) "...if you're even here??"

And the thing is, he wasn't. I had left and/or forgotten him at home. Meaning my sister was shouting for a plushie that was like 15-20 km away. Which I found hilarious.

Idk. It's just one of those stupid, funny and fond memories that has stuck with me over the years. And me and my sister still joke about it regularly. Especially every december XD

Anyway. Rambling over. Hope you're having a great day! <3

First of all- so sorry you've been having a rough night!! It seems like if the weekend wasn't rough then today has been (a friend of mine had an atrocious morning). Hopefully the night gets better/tomorrow is a better day! <3

Second. I'd die for Isak. He's adorable and has aged beautifully (at least definitely better than my first plushie that I still have as well! 😅) The name day story was so cute!! I think that's a really fun thing to have, honestly, and it's really funny that your sister continued shouting despite him not being there 😂

We love the stupid fond memories the most <3 that's what makes them so special!

14, 49 and/or 24 for the ask game :)

Hi! Sorry this is late, I totally missed your ask!

From this ask game

14. do you love the smell of earth after it rains?

Honestly, I don't really pay that much attention to what it smells like after rain. Kind of a lame answer, but ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

49. can you skip rocks?

No :') I've tried.

24. if we were together on a rooftop, what would we be doing?

Probably talking about Meliodas, Melizabeth, and Seven Deadly Sins! Or I'd be trying to find out if we had any other fandoms in common to talk about ^.^

Thanks for the ask!
