Had a very interesting day at school. Was having Social Geography lecture, when theis couple strolled in with balloons in their hand. The lecturer then said, “Can you settle down quickly, esp since you’re late?” The girl then laughed. Hmm, strange way people behave on V day yea.
Smsed flowed in, sending greetings on this red, rosy, hearty day. Even my handphone showed rain that was red and the flowers which were actually blue, turned red with the fireworks turning into heart shape too, just for today. As much as I love red(cos i think it’s sexy, and hey, not everyone can pull it off without looking like an ang bao yea?), roses and hearts, I do get sick of seeing it on this day.
As a odd combination of a full-feledge cynic and romantic, I find all these too much of a veneer and I’m one of those girls who don’t want red roses today(the fact that all other gals around me is holding on to a bouquet, or a stalk). Giving me flowers on any other day would actually mean more to me, than on V day itself. Cos it kinda shows you’re willing to romance me not only on the day where everyone is suppose to be holding hands and romancing your other half.
Don’t get me wrong tho, I think it’s a wonderful feeling and emotional state to be in, when you are in love(that is when your heart beats super fast and you smile to yourself) and when you learn to love the person(accepting his flaws and loving him for it). I always love the concept of being romanced too. And of cos, Vday is one of those days supposedly set aside for that purpose. Hmm, cliche as it sounds, I just won’t want to be the gal who receies flowers twice or thrice a year(Vday, Birthday and anniversary). I want to be the gal who receives flowers, when I least expect to, and more importantly, it doesnt have to be a bouquet, a stalk will suffice, but he has to know why he is giving it to me. I swear that he can pluck it off he fground too! haha (Hate it when guys ask why we love flowers. We don’t love flowers per se, but the gesture and what i signifies)
So that explains why I am still single yea?
Spent today going to school, giving tuition and taking a nice sunny walk home with my favourite milk tea. My perfect way to spend this special day, romancing myself.
I could have gone out, gotten myself a bouquet of flowers and a date. But when the thot of being asked out didn’t make my heart beat faster, neither did it make me smile, I knew I should reject the date. Now I know I’m more decisive than I thot I am. I just have to follow what my heart says when it comes to matters of the heart.
Having said so, I guess I’m a tad old-fashion. I would rather spend this special day alone(“special” despite being over-commercialised), than with someone who doesn’t make me blush and my heart to beat faster. (Yes, my heart has to beat faster! and I HAVE to blush! He needs to make me feel I want him that much lah.)
And so I did. But not without the shower of some loving from the people around me!
First up, met Shoe with Zitian at the HK Cafe on tuesday. Shoe bought me a box of donuts and…a box of Macarons from Canele. Ohh. They were Orgasmic. and Pretty.


My younger sis gave me custom-made stamps. Hmm, strange that it is for me, but it shows more of her face than mine. Plus, that unflattering pic of me?! Haha, little wonder her classmates calls her Bimbo. Thanks Bimbo! Psst. My mum asked my sis why she put a “less than 3″(<3) there.

Hope y’all had a smashing, rocking and sexy V Day!
