In 2015, 10 days after my daughter was born with a condition called microtia, an ear
deformity where she was born with only 1 ear, my caesarean wound got infected
severely due to not proper rest and stress. I came to the doctor’s appointment for a
check on my wound. I was in my O&G doctor’s office crying non-stop and I asked my
doctor, ‘why me, Doctor’. I didn’t find the answer then. I came out of the office burn
out, sat in a chair faraway and broke down whipping. I refused to go home. I couldn’t
accept this happened to my baby. My husband, my family tried to console me, I
didn’t hear none. This was my first panic attack which was unknown to me.
Next, I will cook both my husband’s and my daughter’s favourite meal. After
getting her ready, I will sit with them to enjoy the meal and their company. I will read
my daughter all the stories she wants me to read. She has complained many times
nowadays that I don’t spend enough time with her due to my tuition classes, my
assignments, cooking and cleaning. So, today I will make sure to play with her all
she wants, with her Elsa and other dolls. I normally schedule my dance day with her
on Saturday night but today I will have it again. I will play all our favourite songs and
dance with her. After the dance and a small rest, I would go for a visit to my parents’
house. My father, mother and my grandmother are my biggest pillar, through my
tough times facing doctors telling my daughter may never be able to talk or listen. I
made sure she talks and listens well.
Both my parents had come around to become my biggest supporter and I love
them. So, I will stay with them for lunch and talk stories with them, cherishing every
moment. Last before leaving, I will ask for forgiveness and blessing from them and
hug them tight as usual. Next, I will visit my in-laws. They have been the biggest
supporter for me these past years. I will never be able to re-pay them. After a small
talk, I will ask for their forgiveness and blessings and head to home. I will then sit to
order gifts online for everyone in my family. So, they have something to remember
me by. I will record video for my lovely students and wish them luck in their future.
After a good shower, I will have a light meal with my daughter and husband
while listening to my favourite songs. Will call my immediate friends and speak to
them for a while. I will read a story for my daughter and put her to sleep. Will hug her
tight telling her that no matter what, my love will be with her always. I will write my
last letter to her, how she has changed me for better, that she is the best gift GOD
has given me, I was chosen to be the mother of a special child with a little regret
because I didn’t realize it before. I will sit to pray to GOD and thanking for all he has
given me. Finally, I will spend the last part of my day with my husband, talking until I
drift to sleep while holding my daughter in my hand.
Lesson 3
Travelling was once a very favourite activity of many to unwind with family, to
discover others culture, heritage, food and to experience the unique essence of a
location. However, during this pandemic of Covid-19, tourism has hit the rock bottom
causing many hotels, tourism location to shutdown causing billions of lost to many
countries including our country Malaysia. Growing up, I have always dreamed of
visiting all over Malaysia to experience the food and the uniqueness of every
location. So, when I had the chance, I went to Terrengganu, Kelantan, Pahang,
Langkawi, Melaka and experienced all I dreamed of. I still have some on my bucket
list which is visiting Desaru, Fraser Hill and Penang.
In conclusion this assignment has made me add Kota Tinggi into my bucket
list. I plan to visit Kota Tinggi myself once this pandemic is over. Tourism in
Malaysia is also one industry that has created and developed new income
opportunities to the locals and improving their standard of living. Thus, tourism is
not just about the place but also about the people and the nature surrounding it.
