Landed. So glad for my friends tip to use the VERY first ticket machines as you disembark - no queues at all, skipped past the nightmare later on. Now if only the bags would come soon on this bruised old conveyor and I could get through the damn customs queue. Sigh, what an experience to come home to, but I accept why no Australian airports can ever match Changi…
Edit: oh man customs was a bitch today. I’m never bringing back any tea again, not worth standing in line and getting yelled at by rude officers and having to redo my bloody form because the ink was a very dark green and not black 🙄
E2: Soup results were very disappointing. Ah well. I’ll hold onto my euphoria from last night over the results here
E3: 2 hours later and I’m still salty at the power tripping customs people demanding I rewrite my form because it’s not 100% perfectly black ink. They should be embarrassed to still have paper-only forms in this day and age…
Yeah… Next time I’m just not going to bother declaring low risk items that they never ever check anyway in my experience over 15 years (unopened tea and highly processed biscuits).

Yea they’re arseholes.
Everytime i’ve come back from OS I’m always shocked how rude they are compared to wherever I’m coming back from.
