This was the 19th year in a row I went through this celebration without actually celebrating it in the strictest meaning. Too sad :( But anyway, my persperctive towards valentine day has been evolving - a lot.
I recall vividly once I was in primary school, giving a bar of chocolate to this girl. Apparently, there was 3 boys , if i'm not mistaken, who had crush to this girl. As much as I want to impress her, I couldn't. That was because 3 of us was coorperating on what we should gave. We ended up giving the same stuff to this girl, oh puppy love.
Another valentine story about me was during my high school. I gave a bar of chocolate to another girl on a rainy day. She was hesitant, but accepted it anyway. It was kind of cute, I wrapped it with our school group assignment and she looked surprised to find out what was inside.
I am quite sure that many many couple will celebrate their anniversary on valentines day too. It is also completely understandable that those couple want to make their memorable moments based on a special occasion.
But, does a special date hold something that significant?
I used to be a proud supporter for making 14/02 a special valentine's day. Now, I completely disagree. There was a saying that someone who actually make 14/02 special for his partners and the loved ones, is actually a loser for 364 days. Why not make everyday special? Touch!
Personally, I don't see it as a big deal. I prefer dates other than valentine day to make my special day with someone. Even if I plead to marry someone, I will make myself sure, not to pick 14/02. I don't want to share my special day with the rest of the earth's population. Besides, picking random date would means more for me. Why?
Because it's not special to begin with, but we make a decision to make it special.
What do you guys think?
