Over-commercialised Valentine

Jason shared with me this video. Sweet song which I believe most of us have heard b4 (and to commemorate Selena). Fairy tales always exist in stories and movies only. I told Jason that dun think I'll ever celebrate Valentine anymore even if I have a bf in future. It's juz a day for businesses such as florists, restaurants to profit. So over-commercialised! Now I understand y u would rather give me flowers on any other day but Valentine (but got jealous when someone else gave me flowers on that day. Lol...). It's not juz the money but every other gal would be holding a bouquet on the street and it won't be special anymore. When u r with ur other half, any other day could also be Valentine lor...

To me, flowers will juz wither and die. It's a waste of money (like how I always told u in the past). Still haven got down to clearing my sofa which is full of flowers, be it fake or real. Hmmm... Getting real dusty. Haha... I prefer things that are practical where they are more useful. I guess flowers could come along occasionally to perk gals up but not too often. Otherwise, it would become a norm and flowers will lose the ability to brighten a gal's day.

I rem last year I was helping Jason to sell roses outside Bizad Club at this time of the day. How pathetic was that... This year, I managed to stay at home. It's not that I dun wanna go out with u guys. The reason is same as not going out for New Year countdown. So yeah dun take it the wrong way as rejection for some ppl out there (u noe who u r. Dun forget u said that we would be frenz 4ever so stop kicking up a fuss every now and then. U r juz draining my energy). I would gladly go out on any other day.

The thing significant to me is not Valentine but the day after it bah. I brought my bf home for the first time. Do u still rem, J? Well, for me I do. U convinced me that U r the ONE. My mom was holding a "CNY get-together" and all my relatives were here. U impressed me by being able to deal with so many unfamiliar faces that U have nv seen b4. Time really flies...

Jason asked y dun I look beyond my circle, which is to go beyond my choices of suitors since I dun have a choice as to who woo me. But I could have chosen the guy whom I wish to noe. Cos he said that nowadays gals are very pro-active and they would have taken up all the good guys. Hence, the guys left to woo me might not be of good calibre. I guess it's juz not me to ever approach guys bah. I'm not those type to take initiative and my thinking is still old-fashioned. I choose to believe that my Mr Right is still out there but we juz haven met...

Gonna R&R soon with my Cleo and chocs. Super tired yest. Went queensway, ran in the evening then do my analysis for the questionnaire till very late last nite. Shall update (hopefully with pics of my brown lens) real soon...
