I find it funny how Valentine’s Day went from being like my favorite holiday to a day i’m just like, “can we just not celebrate it this year?” Don’t get me wrong, the small class parties are fun and everything, but I miss the days when it meant handing out chocolate and other candy with a small ridiculous note attached on the back of it. I miss when I associated Valentine’s day with decorating a paper bag to put all my candy and notes in and eating all the candy in it by the end of the day. (actually my mom would never let me do that)<\/p>\n
Now a days, Valentine’s is less of a holiday to me and more of a regular day that I wait to pass. Honestly, it is a little sad that I’ve lost all interest in something that I used to enjoy so much, but that’s just a part of life that I’ve realized is inevitable. No matter who you are, you’re bound to lose interest in something as you grow older– especially holidays that seem to lose all meaning without the class parties you so loved to take a part of. Without the small notes and pieces of candy you collected in your poorly decorated brown paper bag, Valentines probably loses all your interest.<\/p>\n
Now don’t get me wrong, some people LOVE Valentine’s Day. That is, of course, if they have a significant other to celebrate it with. However, for those of us that are single, it just seems to be another reminder of our loneliness, as if we don’t already have enough. “Okay, we get it. You have a boyfriend\/girlfriend. good for you!” Meanwhile, I’m over here just chilling with my food and dog. Is that a complaint? *gasp* Never! Only positive vibes over here:) Although… it isn’t something I’m like super euphoric about. No, I take that back. You can never go wrong with eating food and watching a movie with your dog lol.<\/p>\n
Anyways, If you are one of those who looks forward to this “holiday”, I hope this upcoming Valentine’s Day is just the best day ever for you. Not only am I glad that someone finds joy in this day, but I hope you continue to have a positive outlook towards it. Who knows? maybe you won’t be like me and lose all interest in a holiday you used to love– maybe you’ll keep loving it. If so, good job!<\/p>\n
I hope you all have a lovely week. Thanks for reading:)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
