| God...it's the time of the month again! | for everyone |
For the past few years, right after CNY, there will be the one dreaded day when every male human being in love or in a relationship will scramble, scatter, and stressed themselves on this very day to please their partner. The day when if it all fails, or if it screwed up, there will be a 99.995% chance that your partner will be pissed off, angry, went on their early PMS on you, ignores you and the worse of them...NOT TODAY, I'M NOT IN THE MOOD. hee hee....yeah...it's the 14th of February day...Valentine's.
Gosh...back when i was with my ex, this day is the most important day to somehow show her how you feel about her, to express your love for her, and the day where she is the queen and you are the servant who is trying your best to grant almost everything she wishes (of course la...if she say she want you to buy her an island...that's impossible la...if for me i will buy her a "thousand island"....if you dont know what the hell i am saying, go to the nearest supermarket and look for Thousand Island Salad dressing... MUaAahahahAHAHAHAHAHaHa...) the day when i have to figure out the right gift to buy for her, the right card to give her, the right restaurants, the nice place to sightseeing...you know...the works. All the usual thoughts at work and at family and friends will be thrown out of the window and instead concentrate on one single thing you have to do for that day only, to please your significant other. =)
As for me now, single as ever (or should i say as usual), i find this very disturbing to us singles. Everywhere up to the day of Valentine's, there are flowers, couples, special promotions, you know...the works. When you're single, all your sensory strength will stray towards the couples, the ones in love, the "wish i was with someone today" mushy feeling until the next morning when you wake up and thanked god that it's over. if you decide to go out on this thursday (yeah, it falls on 14th Feb) alone, your sensory system will go overtime. It might overload and burn your brain and you left yourself into a meltdown. There was a statistic where i read that more people are admitted into the mental ward in hospitals all over the world on the 14th of Feb. NO LA I MADE THIS UP ONLY...AHHAHAHAHHA....
Everywhere you go, you will, i repeat, you will feel sooooo out of place as soon as you looked around. Everywhere you go you will be surrounded by couples la, holding hands here and there, hugging la, kissing la...the whole PDAs (Public Displays of Affection) running around. Out of 10 couples you see out there, 7 of them will have a bunch of flowers at their arms, or maybe a teddy bear or two....aww....somehow or rather, they are sort of welded together for that day...the hands of either person might be welded at the arms, or the waist...the ass...and the least affected, the hands la...ok la that one...hehehhe...
Those nice nice restaurants will be fully booked, the cinemas too, the car parks, and you will see those usual romantic spots in kl will be packed with couples.
Where can you go? hide at home? Damn...wont that be boring? Cannot...it can ruin your diet...it can ruin your mind...must come out one! hee hee =P
Here's a few tips. Get a group of your friends to hang out on that day. Make sure they do not have plans too or you will be FFKed...hahahha...go for a drink, dinner, hang out or even dance out at a club. Just try not to be alone or you might end up at home watching While Harry Met Sally on your telly in your room, chomping away chocolates or french fries, with the tissue box half empty wiping off your tears and mucus...EEEEEEeeeeeyeeerr!!! hahahahahahah
Or you can drown yourself at work. Work overtime. maybe till around 12am when everyone's mostly at some hotel at some room somewhere banging their partners. LOL
If you love your family, you can even bring all of them out for a nice dinner outside...go shopping for groceries at Tesco ke Carrefour ke...not bad also wat.
or...my plan for this Thursday? Get a group of single mates around, meet up in a club somewhere in KL, start happy hour at around 4.30 or 5pm and get myself drunk by 9pm. by that time i might fall asleep at the chair, or maybe my evil twin brother who appears usually when i'm drunk will borrow my mind and soul and start flirting with some gal sitting at our next table hopefully or worst out of worst at the gal selling cigarettes or liquor...and by the time you go home you will be too drunk and too busy to think about the couples, the ex, the one who rejected you or the one who kept you at the freezer and left you clueless. Good idea.
I wonder at myself all the time. Why this...Couple's day is so influential to us singles? why we can survive most of the time without a partner only to be beaten by the festive....no no...romantic moods coming up to this dreaded day? Why when we are so happy being single starts to think haywire and think so negatively and hope that someone somehow and someday will steal our hearts away and wished you are one of them, happily celebrating this day together with your loved ones?
Actually, loved ones dosent mean your partner only. It's with anyone you love. Anyone you love. Family also can, with colleagues also can, with your group of friends also can. Just dont bring your best friend along, unless you made it clear to him or her. hehehhehehehehe....
It's too commercialized. It's too hyped up. It's absurd. why go out on a single day when every restaurants will choose this day to create some packages where you cant figure out the exact amount and charges some up the klcc roof for just a simple 5 course dinner? or cinema packages that cost hundreds plus a VIP seating for a bloody movie? arent movies only cost rm 10 a person? or wherever you go it seems it's packed with every couple on the planet? or why everywhere you see the seating's rearranged to couples' seating?
argh....and the list goes on. lucky the mamak stalls never create a lover's package of 2 teh tarik, 2 roti canai and 2 bananas or popadum at the special price of RM9.99. hahahhahaah that will be the day...LOL maybe the mamak fellas will sing a tamil or hindustan tune at an extra rm 2.99...which includes change of clothing, with a group of them dancing and singing and twirling around the pillars of the shops (no trees big enough wat like you see in the movies) ... gosh...i cant stop laughing...hahhaha
One of my exes told me before many years ago when i was still studying, and have not much budget for a great valentine's day outing or a nice gift for her tole me this: "It's not only about the day where you shower me will all your love. If that is the way, i would rather wish that everyday is Valentine's Day and you shower me with your love and care everyday, day and night, no matter what day it is..." =)
To be honest, i'm just venting out my frustration today. Been sick since the first day of CNY, so did not go anywhere much. Been a boring CNY sticking out at my room watching astro most of the time i am awake. One year later i might end up laughing my ass off at this blog. One year later i might have someone...who knows...
NO NO NO NO NO...here it goes again!!!! ARGHHHHH!H!!!!!!!!!
*runs to the nearest wall to bang my head on*
