Happy Valentine's Day

Ordinary ordinary day. We had lunch and dinner at the Black Canyon Coffee joint, and mugged in school in between. Well, a little more special than ordinary. Since that was the furthest we could get away from Haven's food today, with midterm tests nagging at the back of our heads.

Other than that, it was like any other day. Walked through the Vday bazaar in school. But I bought Livestrong bands with Hailing, and Weiming bought some ugly pencil case for himself. Nothing for each other. No chocolates, red roses (and trust me, there was an abundance of these on sale in school today), teddies or candy.

BUT. I wouldn't trade this regularity for anything in the world. I love what we did, what we have.

Not that I'm not a closet romantic. Trust me, I am! It's just that I've never really seen the reason why the 14th of Feb should be a day exclusively marked out for maximum oomphish lovin'. I mean, there's no saying that everyday shouldn't be this way right? Not candlelight dinners or scented flowers or extravagant sparkly baubles- but simply gestures that show your love. Little things that make him or her get that nice little tingle of euphoria within small pockets of the day. And yes, actually I've already gotten my Vday present from him :) Suffice to say that the Fairy got the same thing from her Mr Goh, so we'll be traipsing down to a day of pampering won't we? :)

Oh my love it's you that I dream of
Oh my love since that day
Somewhere in my heart I'm always
Dancing with you in the summer rain
Doesn't matter what I do now
Doesn't matter what I say
Somewhere in my heart I'm always
Dancing with you in the summer rain
