Happy Valentine’s Day to all!! Hope all of u do have a great day on that day. =) 14.02 is always remember by couples & non-couples to celebrate the love in their lifes. However, how special would it be? Was it too commercialised? What abt the singles? We cant abandon them, can we? Some partner would go as far for their partners. Some will just sit down & rest at home like any ordinary day. Nothing to celebrate abt. Not because they are singles, mind you..hehe…Well, it’s just not into their own ‘culture’.

I was in MP (Mahkota Parade) on that particular day with my parents. Yes, u got me rite, MY PARENTS. =) Surprisingly, it’s all fully booked nearly every restaurant there. WOW!! I didnt know Malacca has so many couples, celebrating that particular day. Every corner i see, I saw couples here & there. Hehe…Well….back in my younger days, I’ll always imagine or u could say dreaming ;-P of receiving a bouquet of flowers on this romantic day with candlelit dinner & chocolates (not to forget). hehe…aaahhh…isnt it romantic? imagine having candlelit dinner under the moonlite, a big bouquet of flowers in ur arms & a box of Ferrero Roche chocolates.Waaahhh…hehe….so nice…so romantic..*pop!* come back to reality, on the big V day, what exactly happen was that… I received my present way earlier than the exact date & had an ordinary dinner at a restaurant the Saturday my partner came back. That was it. *blink blink* I was like…dat’s it? was i asking too much? where is the flowers? ok ok, i told him not to buy me any. coz it was so bloody cut throat! i couldnt bare to ask him get one of those will-be-dying thing for me. so i told him, no, no flowers needed. he was so sweet to wish me on the very day itself though he was so tired being 1st day at work after the long CNY holidays. so i thought a romantic dinner will be arranged when he comes back for the weekend or at the very least has something in mind already. I waited so eagerly for the weekend to arrived. but..*sigh* i was wrong..he asked me what do I wanna have for dinner?? Oh God… where should we go?…ok ok…not a big matter..but…at least there’s dinner rite? haha..what more do i want? heemmm…i thought it would be so romantic, rite? haha…come to think of it, i might sound so naive, so childish.but…this is my first Valentine with him…just an ordinary dinner for V-day…

Therefore, this make me thinking, are reality really so much different from the scenes in movies? Or am I exagerating my ‘romantic dreams’? Or another interesting thing is that, is our Asian males as romantic as their Western counterpart? hehe..I asked some friends’ opinion. Some said, "it’s true…very true indeed". Some said, "not exactly. It depends on individuals.." But none said, "Nonsense! No such thing!". So guys out there, I’ll love so much to hear ur opinions. What do u think? =) Does being romantic, saying those sweet words, etc so geli-fying? Or was it being ego?

      On the other hand, being single isnt that bad at all actually. =) ok ok, let me tell u why. hehe..u dont need to crack ur head on what to buy. Just pamper urself on this special day. indulge in something that u really love doing. therefore, $$$ are flowing out so much. Moreover, u doesnt need to go thru the hassle of buying the gifts, making ur own creative card till late nite (esp. for working ppl like me =P). And if u’re single, u wouldnt have any expectation on that day. all this is because u’re SINGLE! enjoy urself while u can, singles!! ok ok, i understand that we’ll feel left out & mayb lonely, when every where we go, we see couples hugging (& mayb kissing). aaahhh….wat an envy! hello people, I dont mean PDA (Public Display of Affection).

Hehe…so generally people, it’s up to u. which do u prefer? like wat the wise always says, everything has its pros & cons. All living thing has yin & yang. There is always a balance in everything. U cant always have everything. Hehe… =)) Guess, I shall end it here. *yawn* It’s almost 4 already. Good morning, Malaysia…~ Good nite, Kwee Hoon~
