In denial

​My friend brought her favourite pair of sandals on our Thailand trip. They were cute little white strappy sandals that looked much prettier than practical. But she swore by them and insisted that it was the comfiest sandals she ever had.
 
After a long day walking around in the first couple of days, two straps started to come apart at the seams. Unwilling to part from them, she grabbed some glue on the way back to the hotel and got to work repairing the straps.
 
Morning arrives and set on a daylong tour exploring temples and villages in the northern region of Thailand. The glue held up for a few hours, but soon enough, the sandals started falling apart worst than before! By the end of it, she had to drag her feet or the sandals would have stayed behind.
 
Believe it or not, the sandals lasted the entire three weeks (with a bit of glue work every night)!
