hey eet eezz me agaiinzz (it is me again ... haha)
have a little chat wif my mum on wednesday night about me when i'm young ...
she said that she regretted sending my brother and i to taiwan 11 years ago ...
i was on my 7th birthday they send me and my 5 years old brother (then) to taiwan with my dad's big sister to visit my dad's big brother's family ... da bo (dad's big bro) house is located 3 hours bus drive away from the main city, taipei ... a small town, not much malls ... but living condition is fine ... and they have a huge park! oh well .. the purpose of sending both of us there is really a plan to get er gu (dad's big sis) a husband ... we lived there for 1 whole month .. away from mummy and daddy :/
oh well .. i always thought i'm a very independent girl since young :) v streetsmart ... or otherwise juz plain nosy/kaypoh/know-it-all/bossy ...
imagine a 7 years old girl ... now looking at those primary 1 students .. i tot they are plain babies ... lol! i use to think that i'm a big girl :)
anyway ... the regret ... was actually cuz i fall from a rickety swing and deformed my skull :/
yupz the back of my head has a huge bump ...
i rmb the whole incident like it was yesterday .. hahz
it was a dark windy night ... after dinner bo mu (dad's big bro's wife) brings me and my bro to the local park ... to play wif the swings ... the best swings i ever played actually! it can go all the way up such that the angle of oscillation is 180degrees woot~ it was dark ... the park is not lit at all ... stray dogs roam the place ... then suddenly one of those stray dogs charged at us ... and i was at my maximum displacement ... got scared ... i let go of the swing .. and wham!!! my head hits the big rock on the ground -.-
it was no big deal .. felt a little dizzy but i was fine ... bo mu saw that i was not crying and hence we played somemore ...
and then we went home and my head hurts ... but i didnt cry ... they boiled an egg and rubbed it on my head ... i thought things were fine ...
so yupz one month past ... and i went home ...
another month past when i realised that the bump on my head is really big ... it was THEN my parents know about the whole incident ...
my mother was super angry .. super super super angry .. she complained why they didnt send me to the hospital to check on my skull or even tell her about the incident! but again i didnt visit the hospital to check about my skull ... it was not THAT painful anymore i guess ...
so on wednesday night ... it all comes to light ... ask my mum why she didnt send me to hospital when she knows my head got a bump ... dont she want to check wat happen on my skull?
the reply: i really wanted to send you to hospital ... but i'm afraid about the thing that i will found out! what if the doctor wants to operate your skull! its juz as near as brain surgery!!!
then it dawn on me .. my mum's love for her children .. the impact that she must have! knowing her daughter probably have fallen from a height of 2 metres! head first mine you ... plus the rock on the ground doesnt help -.- imagine your 7 years old cuzzin ... gosh ... my sister is 11 this year ... i still cant imagine her falling down!!!
no wonder my mum still makes sure that when my sister sleeps at night ... she will put bolsters and pillows around her ... so that she wont fall ..
