React to My Past Overreaction over Seller's Threat

The other night, I was reliving the moment when I felt "threatened" by a random Lazada seller that I resort to multiple ways to try to bring them down.

To set the scene, I have actually dug back up my previous post where I posted the incident on my Facebook feed:



Back to now, my reaction seems a little bit... exaggerated and too-over.

HAHA.

Like I was seriously out of emotional control, and most importantly, my friend reminded me how "beyond" I had done back then just to get back to that seller.

1. I reported to the platform's customer service and made sure they understand loud and clear how this seller's response was out of depth and downright disrespectful.

2. I almost reported this incident to the police station, which now I find it ridiculously funny and nonsense. Looking back, the seller did refund me the money but I personally felt violated hence the "attempted revenge".

3. But, I DID report this incident to the related authority. Something about the consumer's right department. Where the authority is quick to respond, thinking it was a scam report or whatnot.

Unfortunately to their dismay, it was a girl who just can't believe she got threatened by a random stranger online and needed her hands covered with blood to get that seller out of this world completely!

Ok, now that is an exaggeration.

Turns out you need to buy more than a certain amount to be considered a legit report. Moreover, the authority mentioned the seller did refund to me so it was a no-brainer to close the case as it didn't constitute as a formal complaint.

Seriously, I admire my perseverance to win back my own dignity in that case. But, on a serious serious note, I can't believe my EQ is darn low in that moment (still is now) and no matter how hard I tried, things just can't work the way I wanted.

Which says a lot about everyone's experiences as well.

As the saying goes:

"You can have anything you want in life, but you just can't have everything you want."

Now, I'm going back to be a "low cheap buyer" (quoted from another rude conversation I had with another seller) and living my normal, EQ-average-low life.

Ignorant vs Innocent

Chinese New Year is just around the corner! Though 2021 means a whole different kind of vibe for celebration, it still does not stop me doing one of the most important elements during pre-CNY - g otong-royong (big cleanup at home).           I had spent my last week of January literally just doing that. From wiping the walls, dusting the drawers, dumping broken stuff to recycling old clothing, it was hell lot of work.           In the midst of cleaning up, there was no doubt that we would find out some past memories kept in somewhere around. This was where I found out the beauty of innocent childhoods and my past pure ignorant of this ‘cruel’ world .          IGNORANT vs INNOCENT According to Wikipedia, being “ ignorant ” describes a person in the state of being unaware, who deliberately ignore or disregard important information or facts, whereas, b...

Mental Health 0.2: You are not a SAVIOR!

  Helping vs Caring Do you really try to help in a good intention or something else?      When your loved ones are suffering or facing some problems, are you eager to help out by voicing out your solutions, your recommendations to do this and do that? You will be so contented and happy when they accept your methods, even if they actually did not really ask for it and haven’t completed what they wanna tell ya.  Yeah, you got that right! You maybe have some savior complex going on in you.      Savior complex , or called as white knight syndrome , is the time that you put your disgusting gross finger into other people’s businesses and think that you are saving their butt off. But, actually it is annoying to them because no one asks for them.      We literally live in a world surrounding of K-drama scenes broadcasting how the hero is saving the life of a depressed and financially draught girl from some traumatized moments. Why can'...

not Cool being Fool but acting Cool is Foolish

The most daunting question asked in interview is not these: “What is your strength?”, “What do you think you can contribute to the company?” or “What is your career aspiration?”. To me, the make-my-heart-stop-a-beat question is “Do you have any questions for us (the company)?”.             My inner thought is like: Wow, now you want me to ask you questions when this is an interview OF me? Most of the time, we think that job interviews are for us to show the best version of ourselves to fit the criteria and requirements of the job sets. No question asked. But little do we realize that this is not a full-on Q&A section for company to know you. It is an interactive conversation between 2 parties who want to get the best out of each other for the better.             People tend to have this misconception that only people who are fool and stupid ask questions, especially tho...
