Crappy Holidays
So, walking back from my chemistry lab that I didn't have, I came upon an interesting banner on the bulletin board. Apparently our college supports the high school mentality of valentine date auctions. Ignoring the fact that it might have some legitimate use at mines because the guy/girl ratio sucks, I thought that it was still a high school practice. After arriving at my dorm it hit me, isn't valentine's day a BS holiday anyway. I realized that, while being single on valentines sucks, I have gotten use to it and it must really suck to have a date for valentines. I say this because hallmark made a holiday in which guys feel obligated to buy roses and other meaningless crap. So I therefore have a solution based on personal experience for all of the guys out there. I have only been in love with 4 girls in my lifetime, and I learned that every time LOVE HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH TIME. Love is a feeling that is an everyday thing. Therefore if you really care about a girl, every time that you are together should be cherished, and expressions of love should not be more prevalent 1 day a year. If this doesn't apply to you then the other advice I have is remember this there is nothing wrong with a little "bump and grind" I just think that, if you really are in love, there is no reason for Valentine's day.Peace and Love

Amen to that!!! Did you know that Feb. 14th is also National Condom Day? Looks like more than one industry is trying to get in on the business of love. Its such a reverse-mysoginistic holiday. "Guys, show your girl you love her with lots of flowers, candy, bling-bling, and other expensive crap. Then, when you're out of money, make sure you're safe when you're showin' her you love her even more." Yeah, don't buy into it. If I was ever with someone, and they gave me a red box of chocolates, I'd quickly end the relationship.
Sorry for being so vindictive, I was awoken by a hair dryer once again today.
I never knew that you've been in love before. I've only been in love once, and haven't been since...maybe because I know what it feels like when the shit hits the fan. But you do make a good point though...showing someone you love them shouldn't be reserved for Valentine's Day...it should happen every day. But personally, I do enjoy the extra little perks of Valentine's Day.
