Valentine's Day, it doesn't suck anymore!!

Apologies to my one reader on the slow updates. This new role is making me a bit busy in office, and hence I have a lot of time gaps in between.

If you've moved on, and found another blog to spend more time with, I understand. It's not you, it's me. I just want to let you know...


Anyways, today being V-Day, I think it's a good time to gloat share about how wonderful this day is. But first off, I'd like to share that I am definitely not a romantic. I think if you feel like you need to romance your partner on Valentine's Day, then I'm sticking my neck out and guessing that you're treating every other day as just a date in the calendar, and that's wrong.

Treat your partner right, and that means putting in your maximum effort every day!


I send this daily! (Baby, just go with it)
However, I'm pretty sure the only relevance of this day is to be swamped with over-priced food, gifts and flowers. Damn you capitalists! I believe that rather than conforming to social 'norms' and spending a lavish day/evening out, it's better to show your partner you're here for the long haul, that you're here to be the forever after.

Admittedly, I didn't have a 'forever after' two years ago, and all was doom and gloom. In fact, I hardly even knew why I was single...




But sometimes, miracles happen, and the right person comes into your life at the right moment. Dun ever settle, it's always better to find the right partner, than to think dated long enough so just get married lor.

tired faces after yoga, had to sit cos we had jelly legs

Cos when the right person comes along, it's just a fun filled adventure every time you're together! The surroundings always become a blur, and nothing else matters. Unless of course you're out driving, then please do take note of your surroundings. Red might be a lovely colour, but the blood of pedestrians leave a horrible stain on your car.


So back to work before I get fired for writing personal blogs during working hours. Have a wonderful Valentine's Day 2019!

Fun Fact: Apparently V-Day is not just for lovers but also for friends and family (according to some losers) so here's wishing it to everyone as well!

Happy Valentine's Day to all, ok maybe not all. Some.

It's that time of the year once more, where roses and other favourite flowers suddenly cost 4-5 times the norm, chocolates make their way into every crevice of mouths and teddy bears or other stuffed toys greatly lessens the world's cotton supply. Oh, and that love is in the air.


Yes everyone, it's Valentine's Day! And if you haven't already gotten the hint from the title of this blog, then, SURPRISE!! This is essentially the one day of the year where romantic gestures, specially arranged dinners, proposals and heh sio heh sio are in wide abundance. If you're trying to get short term lodging at our budget hotels, I sure hope you booked rooms in advance considering their demand on this particular date. Of course you may also cut cost by engaging in HDB stairway shenanigans, just throw your various DNA samples in the many bins provided.

Being Valentine's Day, I will devote this entire post to this loving atmosphere. In fact, I shall also add pictures of beautiful bouquets in their natural splendour.

I mean wow

Of course, it could also be thrown away by an unappreciative receiver, and we can't even speculate on the reasons as to why. But at the very least, just applaud the effort and workmanship of the flowers la... Or give them to a friend/family member/colleague who is feeling down in the dumps. But I guess it's a day where emotions run high. I mean, just ask those who decided to not hang around couples and instead found watering holes to drink with friends or alone. I know the feeling, it's a day where I used to try out my best Barney Stinson impression on lonely ladies with low self esteem. (Self-Five cos it's a dick move).

Anyways, I know I'm a day late, but I do sincerely wish that everyone had a great Valentine's/Friendship (losers) Day. Preferably to end the day without any blue nuts or dry wells. 



For those who didn't, there's always Tinder.
