Crochet flowers

Did a little errand after my lash appointment. A florist is just opposite Browhaus and I bought this for big girl. 

In the shop, a guy was also buying flower and toy for his female friend. The bouquet is really beautiful but I can only buy this. 

I had a short convo with the florist whom I do 打招呼 when I walked past last time. Florist ask me who’s the graduand -  “overseas where? Melbourne?” Huh? So many Singaporeans go there to study?  I said “no USA”. Shocked and exclaimed “so far!” Aiyah! Even if can bring into USA, you think I so crazy to buy from here to bring over meh? I can’t even tahan 18-19hrs onboard, the flowers also ….stressz. She then commented that there were customers who bought flowers from Singapore to go Australia. Siao ah! Cannot bring flowers into Oz at all. And where did the pax expect to put it? Hope he/she not so siao to put in overhead compartment coz Australian flights are always full load! Did the passenger expect the crew to help you put in chiller? (Hee….actually I do ask the crew to help me put my macarons n eclairs in the chiller. I also bribed them with some goodies too!) 

I was then reminded that a LSS received flowers from her admirer or boyfriend or new boyfriend whatever.. somebody trying to impress her at the airport before our flight departed. We saw the flowers and envy but all of us let out with a “so wasted! U can only admire onboard.” 

I know it’s crazy to bring there and bring back when we would need any possible space in luggage. She will surely niam niam. 反正我做这样那样也不行.  I wanted to just leave at home but ….her hands will be so empty when take photo lor! She want to niam let mini-mother niam me.

Not cheap also k! The girl cost $20. Two flowers at $18 each. Total damage = 56 + 5 (card) = $61

I suppose if there’s fresh flowers I can buy there but ….. not sure if they’re like in Singapore like that can buy it in reception area. It’s held in some huge arena and what if the sale is held in another place. Their building there is so far apart..I think I’ll be tired walking from one place to another. Also not convenient lah! We’ll be travelling and definitely have to discard it before returning.


Ps. Lil one saw this and asked why I didn’t buy it for her then. Commented that this is so much better than the one I bought for her. Sigh…I get the hint.
