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.

My Funeral

This evening, I was reading If I Stay by Gayle Forman. I came to one chapter where Mia, the female protagonist found out that her little brother died later, following their parents' path. Mia wanted to go with her family so that no one left behind. "What would you do if you had to choose?" The chapter continued where this incident made Mia think all the good old family memories. She re-winded a past story that her parents talked about having their own fantasy funeral whereas Mia has to play in their funeral instead of the songs where they played on CD player for ALL funerals. If someone who died like reggae songs, the funeral should play some  Bob Marley's songs. If someone who died love pop songs like me, no doubt the Top 10 Billboard songs should be on the funeral. If someone who died cannot at least got their own wished funeral that represented their life, it's like killing that person all over again with all those insincere eulogies or generic c...

Your Life Your Decison

Let´s say person A has a wealthy, rich family and lives a luxurious life since young. When he hits 22 years old, he is already the CEO of the company his family inherited to him. Meanwhile, person B lives a middle-range family, lives off by his parents´ hard work salary. When he hits 22 years old, he needs to juggle few jobs in order to sustain his living and his family´s too. Would you say that Person A is more successful than person B ? Person B is less luckier than person A? Person A can enjoy his life whereas person B can’t?           That’s your own perception. Your stereotype was haunting your mindset and point of view towards the people that may be living hardship of the life without your knowledge. Who says Person A never work hard from behind to upgrade his family’s business? Who says Person A doesn’t have stress and burden so that people won’t judge him like we all do? Who says Person B always save his m...

Be considerate 做个通透的人

Jason and Vivienne are couples. One night, they were chatting but somehow the guy had a bad working stressful day, so he treated the girl in a dismissive and passive way. The girl did not aware of it since they were having long distance relationship. They hung up instantly after the argument. The girl had some thoughts that wanted to find a better guy because she felt that she deserved better. But somehow, something came into her mind. She should be more understanding and considerate. The boy was working and probably had a rough time, but he still managed to squeeze his time to talk with her. She then realized it would be better to communicate and talk it out when both were in cooling heads. The day after, they were opening up the problem and talked in a reasonable and rational manner, that both came into a consensus to be more understanding into each other and tried to stand inside each other’s shoes. No Adidas? No Nike?? No Yeezy??? It's okay. Stand inside my shoes, so ...
