No way November will see our goodbye
When it comes to December it's obvious why
No one wants to be alone at Christmas time
And come January we're frozen inside
Making new resolutions a hundred times
February, won't you be my valentine?
St. Patrick's Day - John Mayer
ok, so the song above is not a valentine's song. but wth. it's a good song. and i know, vals day was ysterday, but i wanna write a valentine's post and i didn't have time ystrday. sooo here goes...
i'm not that into valentine's. everyone's out giving away chocolates and roses to their significant others. while i'm stuck in the blistering boredom of my own home. i just read my friend alvie's blog post about how lonely it could be being single on a valentine's day. i've never been in a relationship before, but the idea of it i actually love.
wouldn't it be great to have someone say i love you just because they want to and knowing that they truly feel that way towards you deep down inside? wouldn't it be great to have someone hold your hand so tight and know that they'd never let it go? and wouldn't it be great to have someone you'd leap into their arms after not seeing each other for what seems like a long time?
call me a hopeless romantic with severe cinderella syndrome, but cmon, don't we all wish for a bit of a fairytale fantasy every once in a while?
but then again, fairytales don't exist. it's written down by a Danish guy called Hans Christian Andersen. duh.
but yesterday i don't really dread valentines. because hey, they may not give me chocolates or whisper to my ears softly to tell me how much i mean to them. but i had a great valentine's because i was with the people i love.
see, love is a very broad term. often misused, even. so love doesn't always come from a significant other. but it's from everywhere. you'd be surprised of how much love you've given or recieved in one day. i think that being surrounded by my friends is lovely, and it made a great valentine's gift from me.
we had a priceless amount of fun during rama's bday last night. took incredulous pictures and acted like a kid with a severe case of hyperactivity disorder. so yeah, no one sent me a bouquet of calla lilies or red roses on valentine's day.
but someone did send me a bouquet full of love. :)
