V-day: Past and present

V-day: Past and present

I never cared much about Valetine's day. All that it bothers me was that slow moving couples, out in force, were a hinderance to my movements, as I usually prefer to zip through human traffic. V-day is ridicously exploited, contrived and materialistic.

Off topic: Valetine's day was when I got my first pair of guppies - Orange and Spots. Sadly, I killed them from washing their tank with detergent. I thought I rinsed the tank clean but I guess a trace amount was all it took =(

Getting attached sometimes forces a person to backtrack on many promises and stances. I still think that V-day is ridicously exploited, contrived and materialistic. My better half agrees with me but we still would like to mark the occasion. We therefore picked activities that are unaffected by the price hikes. We did more things but we paid less. On hindsight, I'm glad we chose these plans. Thank you, ST . <3
