PERSONAL REFLECTION
DESCRIBE
My family and I were strolling down the Oxford Street, the busiest shopping area in Europe with half a million of visitors each day. I was so excited to go to Primark, which is a store located along the street. It is a haven for me as a shop-a-holic guy. Yes, I LOVE shopping more than girls do. But my parents restricted me and my sisters to go to Primark. They suggested to go there when we were on our way back to the hotel. We agreed. After a long cold walk, I saw my sisters were negotiating about something with my mother and they left the store we were particularly in. I asked my mother where did they go and she said they went to Mug Store. But I misheard my mother, I thought she said Primark Store which is nearly the other end of the busy crowded street. I was confused at first but without hesitating, I went straight to the store. There were no clue of my sisters and I got panic. Miracles do happen, I saw my father pacing quite fastly. I was relieved to see him. My father said that my mother was nearly crazy at that time. Then we both went back to the previous store and saw the rest of my family. My mother and my sibling were also relieved to see me in one piece haha. Instead of getting angry, my mother was dropping tears of joy because at a moment she realised that she can't find her boy back as I was lost in the busiest street my family would ever encounter.
INTERPRET
I learned to improve my sense of hearing as I didn't hear what my mother really say. I need to have the initiative to ensure a second confirmation prior to make a choice or judgment. I felt so terrible because I made my mother's biggest fear to become a reality. But in the end, I believe that something happened should have its silver lining. Maybe this major event of my life teaches me to be more sensitive to the surrounding and make logical judgements.
EVALUATE
This lesson is very useful for me as a college student to be more efficient in learning. I should avoid careless mistakes because sometimes a mistake can last for a lifetime. I need to hear commands more precisely and accurately to be a more effective independent learner
PLAN
Regarding to this specific event of my life, I have to be more careful and should avoid of being clumsy. As I wan to be a doctor in the near future, the last thing I should do is careless mistakes, or even not in the list at all. Being a doctor is a very challenging job, that once I do a mistake, it will have a risk on people's life and my career as a specialist.
