It's like you reaching d t0p and looking down at the world together with your love one, and it is at that moment, both gazed into each other's eyes proclaiming their l0ve f0r each other & so the story goes...Till, the "mood" is there and em, both faces began t0 draw nearer... l0ls d rest is up t0 your imagination. grins* err that is if the cabin only has you 2.^^ hahas.
l0ve is indeed in d air. well, this kinda 0f "l0ve" atmoshphere isn't really f0r me this year.
Anyway, valentine's just brought me back to th0se memories that i once had.Those memories weren't exactly sweet.The valentine's spent in a group 0f 6's having a dinner and that's that. However, it was my first valentine! A truly "valentine". & yeahs, you should get what i mean. hahas.And t0 my dismay, valentine's again t0 be spent alone this year :(
Maybe not exactly alone! i still have yi & my family! :x
Additonals!
I chanced up0n reading this in wikipedia when i was looking out f0r the came about 0f valentine's day. :D
- In South Korea, there is also Pepero Day, celebrated on November 11, when young couples give each other romantic gifts. There is an additional day for single people, Black Day, celebrated on April 14.
- Black Day (April 14) is an informal tradition for single people to get together and eat noodles with black bean sauce in South Korea, sometimes a white sauce is mixed because those celebrating the Black Day didn't experience the White Day.
The idea is that those who didn't give or receive gifts on Valentine's Day or White Day can get together and eat Jjajangmyeon (짜장면), Korean noodles with black and white bean sauce (hence the name), to commiserate their singledom.
A day setted in south korea t0 commiserate those singles who didnt get t0 receive any presents during vday! cool isn't it? hahas. Singapore should have such events to0! so the singles wont be left 0ut admist the "love" atmoshpere during vday.
- In Chinese culture, there is a counterpart to Valentine's Day, called "The Night of Sevens" (七夕); according to legend the Cowherd and the Weaver Maid meet in Heaven on the 7th day of the 7th month of the lunar calendar. A slightly different version of this day is celebrated in Japan as Tanabata, on July 7th of the solar calendar.
Ah.i believed that this is more familar t0 us. hahas the touching st0ry 0f cowherd and the weaver maid! hahahas My second next favourite l0ve story ever after 梁山伯与祝英台. wee. okkays, t0day my post is full ab0ut valentines! hahas. shall end here. tired ler. :x HAB A HAPPY VALENTINE'S TMR! lalalas.
