It's 14th of February - the time of the year when many people will be up for surprises. On the downside, it may lead to dissapointments if your expectations are not met. But it's nice in a way that the extra effort is put in to impress our loved ones and spending quality time with the person we love. It is the time of the year when prices will be sky-rocketing and the guys will have to dig deep into their pockets to 'live up' to the gal's expectations; after all it's once a year (not really, since there will be other gift-giving celebrations as well - birthdays, annivesaries, the-day-we-met-day, the-day-we-kissed-day, and the list goes on, hehe). Guys, no matter what, you wouldn't want to go empty-handed when you go for a date with your girlfriend on V Day - a simple act of giving a stalk of rose goes a long way in saying 'I love you'. As for me, the quality time spent with the person I love equally matters as the gift-giving rituals. The gift-giving rituals are important to reinforce all that is being said and to have an element of surprise in the relationship. It is something that sparks a relationship - but then again it all depends on the intention of giving - what matters is the true intention to surprise and delight the person we love.
My plans for today (after work) - go for a nice long dip and swim ; in the evening - so far no plans yet. Alfred will be coming down to Melaka tomorrow and I don't know what is the plan yet :) I am certainly up for surprises.
As for the election fever - the date of the election coincides with the V Day. So, the wooing days are here - for both the lovers and the leaders :D Looking at the string of events that have been happening lately in the political arena (the V.K. Lingam's controversial video inquiry - alleged brokering in the appointment of chief judge; the ACA probe - alleged involvement of people from top positions in the government; the Hindraf and BERSIH demonstrations), this is going to be an election to look forward to - basically, a suspense. Let's wait and see.
Happy Valentines Day, people! Have great fun-loving adventures today, as well as for the rest of this beautiful life.
