This is how I spent V day

"相遇、相知、相许、相伴，是情人间的四大幸福步骤。
或许曾岔了路、偏了意，却仍需拥抱希望前行。幸福的微笑，是建立在自己身上，而不该奢求別人给予。无论你有沒有情人、无论你是快乐或悲伤，记得要努力对自己好一点喔!"




Surprise date was a success! Sorry KC for lying to you to help your boyfriend, I still feel guilty x10000 but still, it was a sweet and pleasant surprise! :) I hope you enjoyed tonight!







We're "together-alone"


I love them to bits!!






This here is my bitch. She fell asleep during an action film. Unbelievable! But yes I almost fell asleep too :/



This Valentine's Day is a little different. Besides hanging out with my best friends, it's my first Valentine's Day as an, adult.

For all my life beginning sec one, V Day morphed from candies and handwritten messages to friends, to baking cookies for some of my male friends/classmates, to giving out fake flowers/baking for my JC mates. I still remember receiving tulip plushies from Darryl and Wei Lun during sec 3; the 2 boys went out during lunch to get them for the girls in our clique :') and tulips from KC! I still display them by my window (read here by the way don't ask me who is the "you" in that post!)

And because I've never been attached before, I don't exactly know the real feeling of the type of love you get on Valentine's Day. It's always been love from my friends and classmates. I never actually thought that V Day is INDEED, a special day for couples. I've always had this impression that everyday is V Day for couples.

This was what I blogged last year:

Valentines Day 2
Valentines Day is a major event in ACJC. I don't get it though. There were posters, banners, balloons all around void deck, and they have this secret cupid system where you can secretly send gifts to someone else. They sell flowers, roses, lollipops, balloons for people to buy. I see people walk around with super AA balloons. It's kinda like they're promoting BGR or some sort. I think that Valentines Day is meant for those who like someone but not together/hasn't confessed. For singles, it's an ordinary day. Unless you get shot by cupid arrows like 10000x or if you got someone who confessed to you. For couples, everyday is Valentines Day. Meh.
I'm glad that I'm still single. Because I've been watching the people around me suffer in love. Somehow. Sometimes I wished I had someone always there though. I think it makes you happier but it brings a lot of sadness and responsibility too. I don't think I'm mature enough to handle all these, so I'm just really happy I'm not swept into it. Makes life easier.

But no, V Day is an extraordinary day.

Today, I watched 90% of Singapore population walking in pairs, holding bouquet of flowers. Even my jap classmates sent flowers to their girlfriends. My brother took his girlfriend out for a dinner, my sister received 2 bouquets of flowers from her boyfriend at her workplace this morning. It's seriously a lovers' paradise out there. Then I realised I have not seen this scene before because I was never in this adult world! Or never in love, in fact.

Half of me was filled with a little envy, and also a little joy looking at these happy lovebirds. The love in the air! Anyway I feel so loved with my friends and absolutely NOTHING can replace them :') Only disappointment today was prolly the cupcakes I baked. Fail :'( Shouldn't have given them out. And it doesn't help that I'm extremely sensitive towards other people's body language so much so that it kinda affected my mood. Well I guess I should just stick to cookies... T____T

This adult life is incredible.

I am still in disbelief that I am already in it. It's like *snap snap* lyn you're an adult now you gotta remember that. Reason being: my Jap course mates are pure adults and we actually had adult talk today. It's unbelievable to think that this day has come. Work, marriage, money - where the topic of "school" seemed like a faraway thing. We're ageing so quickly, this world is getting too surreal.

Will reality turn into dream? It's hard to differentiate. Doomsday is so near, it already happened in my sleep.
