It's Valentines Day! I know you're all excited. Even if you don't have a partner or a date or a valentine, you should still make the best of it! This is a special day meant for people to take someone they seemingly care about out for something nice and buy them something cute and meaningful. But the thing is if you rush out and last minute find someone to spend the day with so you can make a quick memory, you're wasting your time AND money! Today is a day about appreciating what you have, not envying what you don't. I don't have a valentine, and I'm all good with that. I got a 6 page research paper due tomorrow on the contrasts between the Japanese and Western business cultures, so Microsoft Word, Pandora, and Cheeze-Itz are my valentine. Even if I did have a girlfriend, it's not like I'd go ALL OUT for Valentines Day. I mean, normally they take up all my time and money everyday, so February Fourteenth doesn't make it any different. What's that saying? "Girls are like condoms; they spend more time in your wallet than on your dick"
For all you single ladies and gents out there, keep your chin up. Here's the ultimate test to see if you're depressed about valentines day and you being alone:
If any of those videos made you sad and wish you had someone to kiss and cuddle with on this 2/14, you fail. There is no need to rush out and randomly text your ex girlfriend to banter about 'the good ol' times' and seeing if you can scrap up a last minute coffee date. There is no need to start chatting with random people on FB Chat seeing if they are down to 'get together and watch a movie' cuz you're 'bored'. It's just ONE NIGHT! You're little feelings of sadness will go away by tomorrow, and anything you irrationally start today will sure as hell not feel the same once everyone goes back to complaining about being in a relationship.
Love is the toughest thing to understand... but it will knock you off your feet when you find it.
OH! AND SOME ADVICE FOR YOU LAST MINUTE SHOPPERS!! If you're trying to think of something your valentine would like, I'd say go for homemade. Get some markers, glue, and popsicle sticks, you'd be surprised what you come up with. It's not about the most expensive jewelry or chocolates, it's about what she likes that only you can get her, something sentimental.
