Originating from the Indonesian slang term "teh basi" with this same meaning, "stale tea" refers to the smell that is emitted / radiated in a room where someone (usually male) has just masturbated there.
After he left the room, all I could smell was that unmistakable aroma of stale tea—definitely a sign he had been enjoying some alone time whilst masturbating.

We spent the whole afternoon at the mall, taking goofy selfies in the print club and printing out our favorites to decorate our lockers!

Mobile Programming 

The art of creating applications for mobile devices, which can seem straightforward but often leads to confusion and frustration—especially for those who score an F, like I did, when faced with the intricacies of different platforms and coding languages.
Mobile Programming sounded fun until I got an F in the course; it turns out that juggling APIs, frameworks, and debugging is a lot harder than it seems!

Indonesia 

A term derived from the French word "inondésie" which means "flood", often used to describe an overwhelming influx of something, whether it be water, emotions, or information.
After the announcement of the latest Marvel's MCU release titled "Ant-Man: Quantumania", there was an Indonesia of excitement on social media, with fans flooding the platforms with memes and reactions.

Budi Raharjo

An influential author and educator known for his book "Android Programming with Flutter," which guides aspiring developers through the process of creating mobile applications using Flutter. His name often brings a chuckle in class, especially when it sounds like the last two words of my lecturer's name in Mobile Programming course.
Whenever we discussed Flutter in class, I couldn't help but think of Budi Raharjo; his book was a lifesaver—even if it didn't save me from getting an F in my Mobile Programming course!

A UI toolkit by Google that allows developers to create beautiful, natively compiled applications for mobile, web, and desktop from a single codebase. However, mastering Flutter can be a struggle, especially for those who, like me, ended up with an F in Mobile Programming due to its steep learning curve.
I once thought Flutter would make app development easy. But, after getting an F in my Mobile Programming course, I realized that understanding its complex widgets and state management is tougher than it looks!

distorted 

Originating from psychological thriller / sci-fi movies about lucid dream, this term refers the increase of your expectation on the amount of screen time you should be able to have 0.0001 seconds after you lose the self-control not to subscribe 600+ YouTube channels in a row.
After binge-watching those psychological thrillers, my perception of time felt so distorted; I thought I’d only been scrolling for a minute, but it turned into hours!
