Handsome, the Prodigy Bear & Co.

Urm, hello everyone! It's been a very very long time since I last post on a blog. My mommy said that it is essential to post something just so people won't think that she've killed me. She would never do that. The power dog might.

I've deleted all my previous blogs with incriminating photos which might cause a scandal in the event I decided to stage a coup to take over the Parliament. Hey, if Australia can have a female Prime Minister, anything can happen.

Just imagine this newspaper headline: Migrant Teddy Bear Sits in Parliament. World's First Democratically-Elected Teddy Bear! Exciting.

I will, however, re-post my introduction, dated back to 16 January 2005. Five years ago. How quaint.

Hello! Welcome to my very first blog. Since I was first moulded at a factory somewhere in Thailand and eventually shipped to Singapore, I knew that I'm an unique handsome little bear, just like my thousands brother bears conceived at the same factory. The only difference, Aha, I may add, is that I have a smart and talented mommy who seeks every avenue to make me a famous bear.

Let me explain a little bit about myself. I don't actually quite know when I was born. However, I was brought to my mommy's arms in 1998. I was then christened as Handsome (it's sooo obvious why!) in the washing machine. Shortly when we were organizing to come to Australia, the immigration refused to issue me a passport without a surname and a date of birth. So, mommy begged me to take her surname and we faked a birth certificate so that I can have a birthdate. I agreed not only take mommy's surname but also her birthdate. How cool is that?! So, my birthday is on the 15 of December. Unfortunately, the certificate was lost in transition when we moved from houses to houses in Australia here. Officially, I'm Handsome Lim. However, in order to make a big name for myself, I decided to add a little bit of glamour to it, literally.

One day as we were watching some bungee jumping show on the telly, I told mommy that I am afraid of height. "Vertigo", daddy said (psst: he's not my really my real daddy because he always tortures me like attempting to fart on me or tries to feed me to Austin, the nasty power dog). "Vertigo!", I said. I like the word, "Vertigo". So "Vertigo" we'll have! So now, I'm known as Handsome Lim-Vertigo! I keep the name "Lim" to make my mommy happy. Awww.... But you can call me 'Handsie' for short.

I have a girlfriend called Rosie but I'm in love with Felicity Davey and would like to marry her some day. So for now, Rosie is my backup girlfriend.

I decided that it's best to remain a bachelor.
