Half-Hiatus, Probably.

i'm going to take half-hiatus from social media bar twitter, because twitter is awesome, where you share your thoughts instead of you hedonistic consumption of capitalism - well, you could argue that you could still share your hedonistic consumption on twitter, you're a minority in that, because twitter is text-based social media.

i guess i just got to that point, to the point of actually feeling sick opening instagram and path.

unfunny memes, misleading hoax, and most of the time, your highly censored life.

i mean, you wouldn't share the fact that now you're currently drinking coffee, but instead of starbucks, it's luwak white coffee, aka the best coffee in the whole alfamart.

to be perfectly honest, i don't know why this thing bothers me so much, maybe there's a bit of envy - i mean i'm working 9-5 while some of my friends are pursuing their dream while travelling in europe - maybe it's just a problem of oversharing pointless stuff.

i mean you don't have to record yourself having a chat with your friends on snapchat. i mean there's your friends right there, in front of your face, and you chose to record that and share it to the world, and for what?

because i've never, for a second, thought about recording my hangouts with my friends, because i actually enjoy having my friends with me, and there's no point of sharing that with the world, who probably couldn't care less about me.

i mean taking a picture while you're at senayan city? it's fucking senayan city, i understand if it's in the middle of amstedam centraal, or at any other touristy spots, but a fucking mall? are you fucking kidding me.

maybe probably because what i deem fun - my hobbies - are not necessarily a cool hobbies.

i mean i understand if you're sharing something worth sharing.

i understand sharing you're having a vacation.

i understand sharing your life changing events, and as much as i hate marriage institution, it's perfectly acceptable to share your marriage photos.

kids, well, not once a day, i don't want to know - most people don't want to know - and your children is not as cute as you think they are.

a meeting with friends after a long time, an actual event instead of you routine twice a week meetups with your circle.

but please not selfies, you're not velove vexia, which after following her for a month, i even got sick of her face, and she is beautiful.

please not stupid vaping photos, i get it, i know it, you fucking vape, get fucking over it.

tl, dr; i'm tired, i'm sick of it, i'm sick of seeing your censored life when probably your real day to day life is not that good.

i think i'll reinstate instagram sooner, because hashtags means you can share your hobby with likeminded people, because admit it, you add people on path because you know them personally and rejecting their friends request is rude, and admit it, most of your friends, are your friends, because you happen to go to the same school/college/kosan/office with them rather than actually finding them interesting.

so there's that, i'm tired.
