Bangkok Round Up 1: Temple Selfies

As I mentioned many times in my previous posts, Don and I went to Bangkok for a short holiday! It was our first time traveling together. To be completely honest, i was really anxious to travel with Don. He is laid back, I am not. I like to have a travel itinerary, he likes to with the flow. Don and I don't fight, but we bicker like siblings. I was worried that something might go wrong during our travels and one (me) of us would get upset. 

To my delight, Don is such an easy guy to travel with. In fact, I think he is one of the easiest and most fun person to travel with. I've travelled with many different characters. Don is  #1 on my list to travel with. It's not because he is my boyfriend, but he is really a fun guy to travel with. Whatever i had planned to do in Bangkok, he was okay and up for it. He let me make all the decisions and he just followed me. He didn't mind getting ripped off by the locals, while i tried to bargain to the lowest we could go. The only time Don decided on something was when he wanted to have Pad Thai for lunch, so off we went to get him Pad Thai. 

Coffee at DR.inc

Dr.inc in Bangsar was one of the cafes I have been dying to check out. It was no surprise after a visit to Central Market and Petaling Street with Don, we stopped by the cafe for a refresher. I've always known that Don is a big coffee drinker, but i didn't know how much he LOVES coffee. After one and half cups of coffee, i would get a caffeine buzz and need to drink lots of water to kill the buzz. 

Before our visit to Dr.inc to chill and relax, I took him to Central Market and Petaling Street. I was pleasantly surprised to find out that he enjoyed walking around Central Market and Petaling Street. Central Market is an emporium of stalls that sells traditional goods and local handicraft. It's also an historical landmark in Malaysia. It was an HOT hazy day, so it made a lot of sense to go a cafe to chill. Checking out cafes with Don is so much fun because of his coffee appreciation. Once he gets his coffee fix, he doesn't complain and entertains my photo taking antics. 

Travel Make Up Bag

Don and i did a little traveling when he came to visit me. We went to Bangkok! When traveling, i try to keep to my makeup bag light by only taking the essentials. I always struggle to figure out what make up items to bring me with me. I tend to over pack my makeup because i don't want to forget anything important! Don't you?? 

Love Don't Know What Distance Is

Don left a few days ago after weeks of wonderful, blissful time together. It was one of the best times we spend together. We have always been a close couple. We were friends before we got together, spending (a lot of) time together comes naturally to us. I think we grew even closer after this visit. I know a few couples who can't stand being around their partners for an extended period of time. Don is my best friend. Everything we do together is double the fun! Prior to the recent visit, our last visit was five months ago. It was too long. It felt like forever! I missed him so much that the word "miss" can't justify how much I was missing and yearning for him. The weeks, he was here went by so fast, I am trying hard to remember what we did so I can reminisce them. 

August Goals

Another August goal is to drink different blend of coffee every day!

I have decided to make this a monthly feature. It helps me stay on track with my goals and i can always check back on my progress to see how 'productive' i am and see what I've achieved. Can you believe that August is already here! Boy, you came along really fast. Can't believe it's 5 months into the next year and I can still clearly remember what i did on New Year's Eve. For most of July, I was really busy getting ready for Don's visit and sorting adult things like banking, preparing for Eid, servicing my car, etc. It was like i went on a 'holiday' and left things hanging. Technically, i was on a 'holiday' when Don was here, but that shouldn't be an excuse to not have things on track! 

Below are my August goals
