Bus stop is gōngjiāo chē zhàn (公交车站)

If you want to travel or live in China, one of the most important words to learn are "bus stop" or gōngjiāo chē zhàn (公交车站). 

gōngjiāo chē (公交车) is literally public bus so gōngjiāo chē zhàn (公交车站) is a public bus stop. 

I spend a lot of time waiting at the bus stop (公交车站 Gōngjiāo chē zhàn) and sometimes, I can't help but snap a photo of the people waiting. 

Here are three Chinese women checking the bus schedule and waiting for the bus along a busy main road in Xiamen:  

 

I look like the woman in green while the young, hot and sexy woman in the white and grey dress with black hosiery and high heels is one of the colleagues that my husband sees everyday. 

We lived in an apartment right in front of this main road, which is super convenient because there are rows and rows of restaurants along the bus stop. 

Street food vendors will also set up shop at night along this road so you can easily get your Chinese breakfast, lunch, dinner and even supper here. 

SM Mall is located at the end of this road, which is about 2 bus stops away. 

Sheraton Hotel Xiamen is also located on this side of the road. 

September is jiǔ yuè (九月)

Sweet September? 

Nope. September is the 9th month of the year and it has become a significant month in my life because a third party (情人 or actually a xiao san) entered my husband's life.

9 used to be my lucky number and I would tell my husband that I am his lucky number. 7 is also my lucky number. 

Guess what? 

A bitch born in the year 1979 was hired by my husband's close colleague and hey, he must have thought that she is his lucky number since she's got 7 + 9 together, right?
