Sometimes, you don't have to do much but just enjoy the accompany of each other and that will be the best part of the outing. Like just spending time watching a Japanese drama series and laugh at stupid sceens together, can still be as enjoyable as sitting at some coffee house, sipping coffee and watching people walk by. I greatly enjoyed myself at my bestie's place. We may not be chinese pros but at least we tried our best to figure out what the whole show was about.
Spending time together is not about the place you go or what you do. It's all about enjoying each other's accompany.
