when do people give up?

When you’re trying to flip a fried egg without breaking the yolks

Just make a scrambled one. 


During a rush hour of people commuting back home and you’re stuck in a transjakarta and its been 3 hours of what seemed to be 1km/hour speed

Walking home would’ve been faster. And healthier both physically and mentally.

Even if it's from Rasuna Said to Cipete? Yes. Whatever keeps you sane.


When you put on the shoes that you haven’t used for six months long because you forget why you stop wearing it 

You can’t seriously think that after six months it will tailor itself to fit your feet better. Sure, it doesn't have any holes and it works fine when you try it at home so you wonder why you stopped wearing this. I can save my money because I don't have to buy a new one. In the morning you go to work with a smile on your face and a hope so inflated that it might burst. It does burst at the end of the day though when the back pain prevents you from sleeping. 

P.S. it is about shoes.


Every time you need to do your laundry because the sun is shining brightly but your very own drying rack is out there fully stacked with your neighbor’s clothes 

All while their bag is full of Labubus and Pop Mart’s trinkets. Also Corkcicle in multiple colors. #thirdworldcountrysproblem


When the harmful behavior outweighs years of love and commitment

I don’t know. I haven’t done it either.

Do we give up?
