i just realised my blog was nothing more than just a log of my daily activities. i seldom pen down my opinions on issues and happenings around. part of it is attributed to the fact that i've seen enough tagboards getting flamed by annonymous taggers who put the writers down with totally unconstructive and immature comments. give them a break la! in particular, i really do pity this girl's blog which receives nasty comments on her tagboard every single day. i might not know her in person but i feel she really doesn't deserve this. i mean everybody can be nice at times too right? and surely she isn't ALL bad. i do respect her to some extent because she continues to blog frequently and doesn't let herself get affected by those syndromic taggers. some of you might know who im talking about but thats not the point. yupp thats why ive decided to omit her name.

i have decided to write my views on something upcoming though. im sure most of you would know what the 14th of feb every year represents. yes its Valentine's Day. just the other day, i was wondering why is that particular day so special? what significance does it really hold? personally, it holds no meaning. through my teenage years and now soon-to-be-adult stage, i've seen enough nonsense leading up to V-day. Guys being guys will be desperately trying to find some girl to go out with them on that day. or for that matter rush to get attached before it so that they have a date and not lose face. even if they do eventually get some pretty girl, they will be praying that their own friends spot them so that they can show off. more like turn off seriously! girls on the other hand would go on and on about how many guys are asking them out on that day and start bitching all about it. im sure there are prizes for the i-got-the-most-dates person. plus the fact that guys have to be a little more careful when asking girls out on that day just in case the other party gets the wrong idea. applies vice-versa. irritating ain't it? i reckon Chirstmas is so much more meaningful than v-day. afterall Christmas is a public holiday and v-day isn't. haa! i would even consider birthdays of my friends to be more meaningful than v-day. which means i do not condone the mad rush for flowers and v-day related gifts. if its sincere, a flower any other day would suffice. relationships are like flowers. they grow with each passing day. so why the hype to give flowers only on that day? wouldn't an anniversary be a more appropriate occasion to give it? as for me, its probably going to be my 18th year spending V-day alone. do i feel sad? definitely not. in fact i think there is much cause for joy if im healthy and alive on that day. im pretty certain that the sky will remain blue and the sun will continue to shine on that day. life goes on.

there has to be some truth behind my views. go figure.
