Typical Saturdate Post. (Random)

It’s time to taking care of ourselves and
making time for yourself is imperative. Summer is the perfect time being to
remind ourselves to slow down and appreciate being our own company.
In the chaos of the unpredicted responsibilities
that goes on your daily grinds, it’s easy to forget to take time to ourselves.
Here I am, with my long-time (jodoh panjang bestfriend) , spending time
together at Starling Mall without talking about work, but love-life and crazy funny things that make us laugh.
One of the silly things to make time for
myself alone, or with my lover is: Being a tourist in your own city. I do that when I want to explore certain
places such as malls (which is pretty mainstream), parks (I actually enjoy
walking while admiring beautiful scenes) , grab my camera (the candid shots of
strangers/objects/skyscrapers/foodporn/historical buildings/arts on the wall.)
At this period of so-called “skin care
routine”, I started to get lost in my book to any places I find it peaceful to
read. But not this time in Starling Mall, as I got to enjoy looking at the books
in Bookxcess Bookstore for new readings. I took almost 1 hour plus touring
around the book shelve to see if any books I am interested. FYI, I have a list
of book categories to read for the time being, and I am sure that I’ll spend more
time than Netflix. (I still love Netflix ok.)
During my double-date with Vivien, We
spend more time on looking for the things we decided to do for our next
schedule. Self-satisfaction is one of it and yet we can’t denied it. I have my
hobbies and it’s still ongoing activities except that my body is too tired to
handle. But I won’t give up!
Outdoors activities are the reason to
escape away from daily pressure. We can just make something to satisfy our
cravings. Cook Maggie/ Home-cook lunch on weekends/ Treat yourself an ice
coffee or chocolate cake/ etc…For me? I will took a spontaneous ride on my
wheel, heading towards McDonalds drive-tru and bring back a sundae cone vanilla
accompany with large fries. If major cravings? Switch Sundae Cone to Oreo
McFlurry. Done. Home-cook is still the best. There’s nothing better than a
fancy meal in short-pants when no one else is around.
Lastly, the most important thing about “
spending quality time with yourself/girlfriends/lover” is being happy. We often
do things for others, which is slightly important, but take advantage of “me-time”
and use it to do whatever we like to on the most in that moment. Don't missed
it as summer is going to fly on every season!
