7 more days and it is zee day that most young Filipinos dread.

yep, it’s the over commercialized Valentine’s Day.

i still remember i really had to wore a red shirt back in 6th grade because, hey hey hey it’s Valentine’s Day.

i really don’t know who motivated me to do such thing, but looking back i kinda find it patitik! lolz

and for those who are getting antsy for the said date, i am giving you 30 cool reasons why you really don’t have to fret over it, because you’ll end up looking stupid tired (?)

HERE ARE THE 30!

1. you go to a restaurant, movie, or motel and there’s a line.

2. your partner expects you to do something special for a change.

3. if you are single, you can’t hang out anywhere without looking like a dumbass

4. flowers become three times more expensive…. even if you’re buying for a funeral.

5. it’s impossible to park.

6. romantic fools make such a big deal out of it, and yet we still have work on that day.

7. that little flying freak with arrows.

8. you’ll probably get dumped if your gift to your girl isn’t good enough.

9. why does all the decor have to be pink?

10. if you are a Mormon with four wives, whom do you go out with.

11. because it’s cheaper to just have open heart surgery.

12. you try to write sweet nothings on a card and get a papercut.

13. she really just likes you. not like you like you.

14. you realize that there are much better women looking out there.

15. if you are a guy, you realize that you like men more.

16. you give her a nice a gift and she mutters that she wanted something else.

17. you give her chocolates and discover that she ‘breaks out’.

18. you go out in your expensive suit and it starts to rain.

19. your date realized that you don’t have car.

20. a ‘dinner date’ does not mean going to a fastfood joint.

21. you buy her the obligatory chocolates. she eats it, gets fatter, asks you if she looks fat in her jeans… vicious circle.

22. more jewelry ads start popping up on TV. ‘a diamond is forever’. yeah, so is herpes.

23. dinner reservations - what’s that?

24. being born on Valentine’s Day and you parents name you “Valentino”.

25. you take your mother out for dinenr and everyone thinks you are into older ladies.

26. foie gras - what’s that?

27. they don’t make heart-shaped pizzas for single people.

28. it can’t be on the 15th. pay day.

29. your mistress feels left out.

30. it’s just another stupid occassion invented by Hallmark.

*from Maxim Philippines*

lolz. so there. i hope you are enligthened much.

on a personal note, i just want to say that why the hell would you show all your love in the world in one day when you can show it everyday?

=/

enjoy Valentine’s!
