Today's the 14th of Febuary.
Its a very special day today. Know what's that?
It's a day whereby most of the guy's name around the world are changed to "ROBERT".
And yes, today is valentine's day... It's a day for couples to go saying "I love you" to their partners, bring them to a candle light dinner, movies, star grazing etc etc, a day for married couples to pledge their love to their better half one more time...
Valentine's day is also a day whereby businessman rubbed their hands in glee, thinking of all the $$$ that would be pouring into their toffers. Restaurants all over the world offers special set dinner for 2, and singles like me would feel out-of-place at those restaurants, with couples all over me.
Shops would offer valentine's gifts of all sorts, florist would have a busy time wrapping flowers, and delivering them. And the prices for all those items would be sky-high. Hence the name "ROBERT" for guys.
Cinemas would most prob be packed. Beaches will also be busy with romatic couples strolling, and with luck, you just can see a couple of cars shaking in some shady car parks.
To singles, fret not. Though you may feel lonely on Valentine's day, seeing all the couples hugging on the streets, do not forget that Valentine's day is also known as Friendship day. Go on, wish all your friends a happy valentine's day!!
Hmmmm..... just a question. Valentine's day is named after a fellow called St Valentine, and that's all i know. But what is the story behind it, i dunno... Can anyone enlighten me please?
