She’s back!

Che-che was only away for 5.5 days, but it was a good break for her. 

As usual I always like to check the location of the plane so we know when we should leave the house to pick her up. At first I only saw the ✈️ going round in circles once so thought they were dumping fuel. But half an hour later, I saw another 2 more and that could only mean one thing - BUSY BUSY ATC. Which she confirmed when I asked. 


Lil’ one was excited to see what her sister bought. Che-che bought this blind box. Funny or coincidental thing was she said she wanted this 熊出没 and then she got it. I’d like to ask her to manifest some good numbers for me so I can strike lottery. 



She also liked Mulan and it was Mulan. But alas! This blind box is for lil’ one which she wanted Ariel. Ay? Since when lil’ one likes Ariel? 


The item in the image is a figure from the Disney Princess Fairy Tale Friendship Series by Pop Mart. It features Mulan and comes in a box with a quote that reads, "The flower that blooms in adversity is the most rare and beautiful of all." 


It’s so cute. Now I know why a lot of people are so drawn into collecting these pop figurines. It doesn’t appeal to me coz I know sooner or later when my interest wanes, I’d find these were a waste of money to spend on. Not like the price of the figurine will appreciate if I sell them. 



Che-che 有心 bought these for us. The three tame (goat, rabbit and horse) and one noisy always barking ‘animals’


Didn’t buy a lot of snacks home as we have lots of snacks at home, so she bought abit and shared with bro


She hasn’t been to China for many years. The last in 2016? or 2015? Although she’s in the ulu-iest part of China, it must have opened her eyes the technology changes in the country. Just like any tourist who is advantageous with the good exchange rate,  she bragged that how cheap Chagee drink is and HDL only cost RMB 515 (S$93.17) for 7 pax. FYI they ordered lots of meat, how can we get such good deal in SIN? But they couldn’t pay with whatever Alipay or dunno what as they will be charged for a fee so luckily hubby passed her his China’s bank card 💳 , where she made the payment first and they paid her their share.
