Valentine's Day
On this day, many crushes will be crushed.
As in, on this day, many couples will be created. From all walks of life, nerdy, sexy, show-off, bossy or shitty people, all of these people will "stead" (a really silly word, by the way) or marry today. The amount of shotgun "steads" created on this day will be prodigiously huge.
Why is this day so special?
No, it is not special. It is not a public holiday nor it is a school holiday. Not many people know what Valentine's Day is all about, that includes me. All they do is give gifts and say: "Happy Valentine's Day". Some do not even know that is spelt as "Valentine's" and not "Valentines".
Yes, it makes a good excuse to give something to someone you really like on this day. A convenient excuse (or "reason"), I shall say. The thing about this day is that it may not be so special for your loved one after all. You may be giving her something, but three/four/five other people may also be giving her/him something. This will dilute the effect that you want to give to her/him.
I know. I am being extremely utilitarian. But..life is a roller-coaster.
I saw many people giving away roses in school. Why roses? Roses will wither and die a horrible death, probably thrown into a disposal or the petals will slowly detach, giving the rose a slow and painful death. Roses are impractical. Look at it, is there anything that we can do to it that will make it useful? You can't replant it, we are in Singapore, we don't have enough land. Also, do you know that roses have thorns that can kill? Do you want to be convicted for murder? Obviously not. So why are you giving your loved ones roses?
Okay, that's all there is for this week.
School is overwhelmingly overwhelming.
