The meaning behind it is sweet, a day spent with your loved
one, creating memories, proving your care and love. Which I do think is a nice
idea, I find because me and Zack are so busy with sixth-form, working part-time
and other responsibilities we rarely put aside time to see one another to do
something like, a day out, cinema or even something nice and simple like going
for a meal! Valentines to us is an occasion where we plan something nice and
put aside the time to do it, as fairly there just isn’t always the time for it.
The single mingles, I’ve been single for one Valentines in my little teenage life and personally, I quite enjoyed it, mainly because I made something of it. As the iconic Domino’s and Ben and Jerry’s turned up me and my friends dug in, and that, that is how Valentines should be spent if you’re single! (With of course The Notebook playing in the background as you gossip about the at most random of subjects).
Now, my feelings towards Valentines are mixed up because of
the expectations Valentines brings. In the films the boyfriend/husband shows up
with a bunch of roses, which would logically be worth about £70. If Zackary
turned up on my door and had spent his hard earned money on flowers that are
just going to die (expensive flowers) I would feel awful excepting them, I’m
perfectly happy with some pink flowers from Waitrose for a fiver, if that. I
think the little things on Valentines Day count, the things you should be doing
in a happy relationship all year round. Making each other a morning tea, saying
‘I love you’, cuddling and all the little things in a relationship that make
you both happy.
This year me and Zackary are going to see 50 Shades of Grey
(my choice of course) while sneaking in some of our favourite food most like,
going home to cuddle and then waking up to good old morning breath and my usual
begging for him to make me a morning tea. Isn’t that what love is all about?
