“I hated reunions. It made myself felt so little afterwards. When I was there, I couldn’t help not knowing. But after I knew things, I couldn’t stop comparing. I was congratulating people when they told me the good news, but deep inside I was wondering whether their good news was better than mine. Life wasn’t supposed to be a competition, but it really felt like one.”

“Our Peter Pan generation is unhappy. All our lives, we want to grow up—
to be treated like adults, to have freedom to choose. Then we get here and
it turns out being an adult sucks. We pay the bills and taxes, watching others succeed while we are forever waiting for our turn.

We believe we are special, but nothing special has come our way.”

“Yah... seperti itulah cinta. Dia bisa datang tiba-tiba, bisa juga bersembunyi sekian lama tanpa kita sadari. Namun saat menyadari, kamu akan tahu, tak bisa melepaskan cinta itu begitu saja.”

“Luck, I believe, is where preparation meets opportunity.”
