Kota Singa & Kisah Mata Kiri

The post that I was thinking of posting, - forget about it for a while.

I went to Singapore a couple of days ago with my sister and her family (my bro in-law and my niece). Her friends were also on the trip. We started from KL to JB. We stayed JB for the night at the New York Hotel and went to Singapore the next day.

On the way, we went to Johor Premium Outlets (and I heard that it is the only of its type in Asia. It looks like the outlets In the States but JPO is two-storeyed).

At the hotel; Nayli (my baby Niece), grabbed a pamphlet and as with everything else, she swing it, she tore it, she did everything with the thing and at one point, she swing it straight to my left eye. It took a couple of minutes for me to finally open my eye and it still hurt after that. It was only a couple of hours later that my left eye felt normal again.

Oh, how I was wrong. Sometime in the middle of the night, I woke up a few times with tears running from my left eye and it hurt so much that I cannot even open my eyes and I was just praying that it would be morning soon because I cannot stand the pain. When it was finally morning, I rushed to the toilet and tried to open my left eye. It hurt like hell.

The pain did not stop there when I finally opened my eye, it felt like something is in my eye and when something is in the eye, you would usually blink. But in my case, whenever I blinked, it hurt even more. I cannot stop the tears flowing from my left eye that I looked disgusting. I took every single tissue I could find to stop the tears flowing every 5 seconds (I’m not kidding).

So basically, I can only see with my right eye. It didn’t help much because I even put wrong sides of shoes to Nayli’s feet. I was afraid that during our trip, I might lose Nayli (because she can walk now. Yay!) and I know I would be blamed for it from my sister to my mom.

I know Universal Studios Singapore (USS) is fun. I can feel it but I was not enjoying it. When I looked back at the pictures, I was smiling as if nothing was wrong but the truth is, I was in pain. It was so painful that at one point, I have believed that I would be blind when I am 23.

I should be terrified but when my surroundings is full of fun and love and my baby niece is having so much fun, I thought why should I be the one spoiling the mood. And I thought my life has been the way it is and though it is not a smooth sailing; every bump I faced led me to even beautiful things. Allah Maha Besar. If He has decided that I would be blind, something better is meant to happen. I should never doubt His decisions. When my old self, would be screaming and cursing, I learnt that I should just accept and be thankful for everything that I have.

Back to the USS story, it was fun (I think). It is not as big as Disneyworld Florida but it is cool nonetheless. From my right eye’s point of view (haha), it was fun and entertaining. I wish I can elaborate on that.

That night, I went to see the doctor because it was getting worst. At first I thought I can deal with it at least until I’m back at KL but I couldn’t. The doctor gave me some medicine and she said if it’s not getting better, I should see an eye-specialist.

The next day, my eye was getting better and we went around Singapore for shopping and sight-seeing. I tried their McD coffee something McFlurry and coffee something drink because the burger that my sister suggested with the rice in it is not on the menu that day.

Oh, and one more thing, the custom to enter Singapore is so not worth it. Even America’s custom is not that stressing. We waited in long lines. I cannot even describe in exaggeration how stressful the system works there. I’m glad that everything’s over finally. Hehe.

Oh, have I mentioned that my baby niece has her own passport. How cute is that? Her hair is tied like Flinstones’ daughter. She’s a cutie and her height is 75 centimeters. AWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!
