Haste makes waste

“You are my best friend as well as my lover, and I do not know which side of you I enjoy the most. I treasure each side, just as I have treasured our life together.” 
― Nicholas Sparks, The Notebook

Thank you CSO! :)

Who would have thought that I’ll be celebrating Valentine’s Day? The day before V-day, I had a chip on my shoulder and I was totally prepared to cry over my downloaded sappy movies and eat ice cream. Of course, Drastic times calls for drastic measures.  I guess, it’s true what they say, it comes when you least expect it. I don’t know how I’ll describe my experience but it gave me an experience of a lifetime, it was not an arm and a leg type of date, it was pretty simple actually but what i enjoyed the most are the conversations and how wholesome and sweet the day went for us.I mean, how would you feel if you were wearing your dirty, wet, you smell like your dog,  tattered clothes with acne cream on your face then someone would come up to you with a flower and your favorite donuts? First, I thought it’s his method to his madness but after awhile my face was flushed with kilig madness because then I knew that his efforts are genuine. We spent the day watching sappy movies, had fruitful conversations over dinner at one of my favorite restaurants and lastly, had an awesome night cap while watching the stars in the sky. I felt as if the day went by as New York minutes and I didn’t want it to end. I felt like I was in the movies something like “A walk to remember“ where they were dancing in the moonlight because that’s exactly what we did, “A lot like love’s” movie clip of singing in the car and dancing, “Before sunset’s” intellectually stimulating conversations and lastly, the perfect way to describe what we have is “The notebooks” quote, “The reason it hurts so much to separate is because our souls are connected. Maybe they always have been and will be. Maybe we've lived a thousand lives before this one and in each of them we've found each other. And maybe each time, we've been forced apart for the same reasons. That means that this goodbye is both a goodbye for the past ten thousand years and a prelude to what will come.” I always thought that V-day is just another hallmark holiday but when it hits you, then you’ll realize how wonderful it is to celebrate it with your precious one. It’s true, what they say “if you don’t want to look stupid, then you don’t deserve to be in love”~a lot like love.

Valentine’s Day reminds us to make an effort for our loved ones but it is so much better if we put in effort everyday and make everyday as if it's Valentine’s Day.

Happy Valentine’s Day Everyone!
