Facebook jailed my account and deleted it for good.

 


After making several posts about gardening and farming, suddenly the app notified that Facebook was reviewing the content as it detected, or someone reported that I had violated the community standards. 

Initially, it stated that it would only be less than 24 hours but few hours later, Facebook notified that they would shut down and wipe it out for good. There was no specific explanation on which way had I violated the guideline, there was no warning, no mercy, no appeal opportunity given. No trial given. Just when I thought that this US-based company would be as democratic as the country on freedom of speech and etc, Facebook management acts like communist. 

I am still wondering how they make the judgment on just shutting down people's accounts like mine, when there are many more offenders using Facebook doing even worse on spreading hate, cyberbullying, scamming people. It still puzzled me in what way gardening is deemed as harming the community. 

Seeing how they took down the entire account, which I had built for more than 10 years, is devastating. My journey from a student to a working adult, from a teen to a mother now, the collection of books I read as my future records. It felt like losing a home razed by fire. 

DETOXIFYING FROM FACEBOOK


NETFLIX's social media documentary sent strong signal that Facebook is generally bad for human beings. Despite I have watched it and very well understood the message, I still could not make the move to quit Facebook for good. Probably, what Facebook did to me is a blessing in disguise. 

I still set up a new Facebook account but only follow official pages. I do find peace by not following many people which could cause me mental diarrhea by just keeping tabs on what they are doing. 

Since I am never an influencer, nor that people would care about my life, it is much better to pour out all my experience and thought here at the blogosphere. Hopefully, no hater or jealous person will report this space too. 

Journaling is actually a better mindful therapy than scrolling social media without purpose.

CICA-Care and Hiruscar gel.

Image
The Cica care, do not really know how to pronounce it, cost me about RM113.50 for the size of 3cm x 12cm. That size can actually be cut into half, to fully cover my raised 12-year-old reddish keloid car. Pardon me for the ugly creature...which most of the time will scare children away, and make adults have second look of the gigantic 'paramesium'. The silicon and sticky strip can actually last about 2-4 weeks, so mathematically for 2 months, I only spend RM100++ for my treatment, which is a lot cheaper than doing laser/removal surgery. This is how it adheres to my skin, I really don't have to worry it will fall out as I do my work, or even during exercise...(except swimming). Occasionally, I will have strong urge to scratch my itchy patched keloid during sleeping time, because of what the Cica care is doing-depressing the scar. After about two weeks usage, the edge (the sides where I use to remove) becomes like above, is an indicator that it

Review on Qdees school.

Image
This post is merely on personal view of the Qdees kindergarten which I enroll my daughter in this year. The principal has recently posted in parents-teacher Whatsapp group that the franchise has been awarded SME Brand Excellence Award in Best Global Franchise Model 2016 by SME Malaysia. Well,the excellence award obviously meant for business specifically the people who want to make money from early learning institutions...the information does not really relay the significance for parents whose main concern is their children's well-being at the school.  Back to my parenting point of view, the reason I chose the school is I believe with certain standards to comply, I hope that my daughter will be taken good care of while I go to work. In short, no abuse. Image grabbed from Qdees website I paid over thousand include the monthly RM450 during registration in Dec 2016. The payment also include two (ugly) grey color uniform (with not-so-good)cloth quality, a set of

Groupon-Tomoko Hair Salon.

Tomoko Hair Lot 112, Ground Floor, Megalong Shopping Mall, Jalan Taipakkung Donggongon, Penampang, , 89500, Kota Kinabalu, Sabah 1 Visit Professional Cut+L'Oreal Hair Treatment+Wash +Blow+Personal Image Consultancy Service. Voucher "so called" valued for RM135 which I paid for RM18. ************************************************* Today I paid a visit to the saloon at Megamall. As I had made the reservation earlier, I was quite surprised when they asked what I would like to do with my hair. And I was asked for three times as if they don't even know the sevices they featured in Groupon. The saloon was quite small and crowded, but I believe that shouldn't be the reason they are slacking in their service. While I was sitting and waiting for my turn to have those services, a man turned out of blue that I should cut my hair like ****, I couldn't recall what he was trying to tell me cos he was just talking without me getting ready to his comments.
