Today, mother decided to join us in learning Yoga. My sister and I arranged her to start from the beginning class at 12pm, Saturday. We also took my nephew, ChingYu (who is at her age of 2), with us since her mother was not home. However, kids were not allowed to be in the Yuga classroom, so it comes to my turn of taking care of her while my mother and sister were in the class. That was a horrible experience. She is too active to stop moving, running, playing and jumping. Most of the time, I was chasing her around
. I tried to feed her food so she can stay be quite but cleaned up the food she drop on the chair, table and everywhere also drove me nut. She is not an angel for me during those two hours. Even I didn't attend the Yuga class, but I felt I spend more energy to taken care of her than if I did. 
After Yuga class, it became sister's "business suit" shopping day. My sister, Yvonne, needs to wear business suit for "tour guide" interview and training class. Since it was raining we tried to find something for her on the way we walked from MRT station to our house rather than go to any shopping mall or department stores. We didn't like the first store we went because one set of business suit cost more than $6,000 (including 1 coat, 1 bourse and 1 skirt). Not because we were not able to afford the price but because we don't think the suit is worth for this price. You will see we made a good decision to give up from this store.
The second store we went to was "Lace", a store sells "overtime" "brand" clothes. The quality is not bad because they are from some brand stores. The price is low (80% off) because they are the left over from last season. Since the price is so cheap compared to the first store, mother decided to buy 2 set for fall and 2 set for winter for sister. Well, based on my counting, we spent the same price (more than $6,000) but bought 10 pieces of clothes (equal to 5 set of business suit).
In conclusion, I told my sister that today was her lucky day and she was the biggest winner. She can save the money from shopping sponsor, my mother, but also got 4 set of business suit. Mother is still the "Shopping Queen", and I am the "one day baby sitter".
