Hello, world.. Valentine's day is coming!!
If I see this, I would tear one down and give it to my buddy Cindy Teng. (since I am boyfriend-less)
But not before I take a picture and tweet it!
It's a really, really sweet idea (:
Up is one of my favourite cartoon movies of all time.
I would watch this for a Valentine's evening at home with a loved one (:
The love of the couple as they grow old together is just so AWWW..
You know, I think this year the shops are really confused. You see Valentine's day bouquets every corner.. love is in the air banners.. but their speakers are really blasting: Dong Dong CHIANG!!! Nowhere but in Singapore. *Sigh*
After all the capitalistic, profit-maximising, blood-sucking shops/shop-keepers alike try to squeeze every last cent out of our pockets.. It's not surprising I come across many anti-Vday pple.
Mainly Guys: "Why do I have to spend money on flowers that die eventually... And a restaurant that is so totally ripping me off for their "Lovers' Set"..
"If I love her, everyday is Valentine's day what!"
"IM BROKE.."
Most Singles I know: "Vday is just another meaningless commercialised holiday."
"True love doesn't exist."
Why so angsty? Hahaha.. I love Valentine's Day!
I read somewhere on a tumblr blog that Vday is really a day that forces us to appreciate our loved ones. It’s not that we don’t appreciate what we have and the people we care about, but we live busy lives and we don’t always take the time to express our gratitude. The fact that it’s a holiday reminds us to make the time.
Quote:
"people argue that “you should show people that you love them everyday” & if that’s the case, then your problem isn’t with valentines day, it’s with the other day 354 days of the year. just because you believe we should express our love more, every other day of the year, doesn’t mean we should express it less on february 14th"
I love the fact on Valentine's Day my W319 boys would bother enough to share money (out of the little they have) to buy flowers to appreciate all the sisters, Yi Lun and Pst Zhuang. On Valentine's Day, I can spend time with my dearest Mummy and sister Seah Hui and tell them they are my Valentines too. And my favourite Valentine of all, my dearest buddy Cindy Teng. Everyone I love is my Valentine!
I don't have to feel sad I'm single.. I feel immensely glad that I have people in my life who care and treasure my presence :D
Singlehood is not scary, it's temporary!
Cheer up and celebrate Valentine's day with Darth Vader!
Love, Jing (:
