I know in last week\u2019s blog I wrote about sports that I\u2019ve took part in, and I said that I would make it into a series, but I&#8217;ve decided to deter from doing so for another week. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0Today is February 8<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">th<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\"> and Valentine&#8217;s Day is right around the corner. Valentine\u2019s Day is next Tuesday on the 14<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">th<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\"> and I\u2019m going to tell you all how I prepare for it. So first and foremost, I think the obvious question is do I have a Valentine? The answer is&#8230;&#8230;YES! I do have a Valentine and I\u2019m not one to be consumed by \u201cholidays\u201d and what not, but I want to utilize every day that I can show her how much I care. She is incredibly special and dear to my heart, but I\u2019ve been pondering on what to get her, or if I should get her anything at all. Maybe we could just spend the day together. I could make something myself, I could buy something, or I could do both, it just depends on how I feel in the moment. I feel as if handmade gifts are more heartwarming in my opinion. <\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0So now for the preparation part. Yesterday we went shopping with some friends and we all found dresses for our school\u2019s Valentine\u2019s Day dance that is coming up next Friday. I found an elegant white dress that is very fluffy. I don\u2019t know any other way to describe it. The dress doesn\u2019t have any fur on it but it\u2019s super flowy if you know what I mean. I may or may not insert a picture. I also found a black silk dress with a mesh film over top. It&#8217;s very pretty and way more fitted than the white dress. The black dress isn\u2019t as elegant as the black one. I needed completely different options, so I bought an edgy look, and a sweet one. I\u2019ve also been watching so many Valentine\u2019s Day makeup tutorials. I like to look for inspiration then make things into my own. I have an idea of what I want to do, but I\u2019m not totally sure.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:240}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0I\u2019ve also been looking for gift ideas and have had no real luck, except for one thing on Pinterest. It&#8217;s completely handmade, but it will take me some time to make. That shouldn\u2019t be a problem though considering I have an entire week, but as busy as I am with school, I\u2019m not exactly sure if that will be enough time.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:240}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Okay guys, I know this blog was probably pretty boring considering you don\u2019t know who I\u2019m talking about, and I didn\u2019t say exactly what I&#8217;m going to get her but I \u2018ll be back next Wednesday with an update and I will try to include as many pictures as possible in this post so that you all can visualize what I\u2019m saying.
