Pillows :)

As recently mentioned, i went to China for about 3 weeks earlier in January and it was super fun and of course i spent a bit of money on a bit of stuff.  That was a problem because not everything would fit in my suitcase.  Even though i was allowed to have 2 suitcases of 23kg each, i bought a lot of stuff that was not so easy to put in....

One of the many things that i love collecting are stuffed animals.  I didn't get any actual stuffed animals from China because i fought really hard with myself about how many i currently have on my bed and the ones i have put in plastic because they were collecting dust on the shelves.  So i was proud i didn't get any, although i really wanted some because the prices there were just unbeatable, especially when you compare them to here.  Instead of getting stuffed animals, i got pillows shaped like stuffed animals instead.  Not exactly what i should have done, because it actually took a lot of space in my suitcase and actually i put some of it in my boyfriend's suitcase for him to bring back, and i still felt like i didn't buy enough...

Besides getting things for myself, i also got things for other people too, so it wasn't like it's all mine.  Out of the things that did take a lot of space however, are the two things i wanted to share today.

This is a bear-type pillow thing and its white in color.  I love how it looks so innocent and the eyes and that nose.  It was just so cute, it cost $5 CAD probably which you probably cannot get right here. He is super soft, so my boyfriend and i decided to call him "white bread" HAHAHAHA

Another one i really wanted to share is the "lazy bear" Rilakkuma which is a japanese character from Sanrio.  This pillow, besides looking cute with it's ginormous face, has another purpose.  Both sides, under the ears is a hole that goes through to the other side.  You are suppose to stick your hands inside so that when you watch tv, your hands won't get cold.  I though that is the cutest thing ever, especially for me because my hands get cold easily; it was perfect.  It was a bit more that "white bread".  The "lazy bear" cost around $9 CAD, which you probably can't here anyways, especially for this character. 


Pillows were not the only thing i bought in China, but there is too much to share, i would have to spend too much time writing about it.  Perhaps later on, i will share other adventures i had or purchases i made in China.
