what's the first thing that came across your mind when someone told you that valentine's day is around the corner?

crowds. 

superly overpriced dinners.

ridiculously expensive flowers. 

and chocolates. 

and cards. 

(okay, and balloons and kisses and more flowers. global warming, anyone?)

even in wow, we celebrate 'love is in the air' where we'll have to flirt with the guards once every hour to receive the gift of adoration, which would, if you're lucky, gives you a pet, which also gives you an achievement. we talk to them to receive other gifts in exchange for chocolate buffs and other stuff like rose petals, which you have to sprinkle them on other players. (ps. troll rogues are really a myth). 

seriously, i'll cry if i'll have to squeeze through the crowds in town on that saturday. someone was kind enough to come over for dinner, and we had mac and cheeeese. <3>

its really sad. on normal days, its okay to have your own life, and tell your partner that 'i'm busy, i'll meet you another day'. but honestly, i would feel very rejected, if he tells me 'i'm not free on valentines.' there goes the saying 'if you truly love each other, every other day is valentines.' i'm sorry, i'm not that gracious. forget the flowers and the chocolates. i'd like to have a card. a hand written card, not e-mails or MSN messages or SMS. that would make valentine's perfect. 

its just too bad that sometimes life doesn't necessarily go the way you want it to be. *stares at the balloon floating around my room and frowns* (its quite disturbing, yo, but thanks)  

anyway. i'm frigging proud of myself. i went to gym, and i'm planning to be there for a long period of time. its really tiring, i know, but i  want to be skinny. i want to be one of those skinny bitches that goes town and stare at you like you've eaten an extra pea. mwahahahah. i'll donate all my pop tarts and other real life food buffs to someone and i'll start eating greeeens. be a good girl, yinkwan. 

working today was really, really boring. maria is quite a funny person, but she came in only at 12.30. ): can't wait to work with alcinda. working with sarahh on friday opening. yayness. oh and there's this spin spin event this week end at gwc's ben & jerry's. apparently if you spend more than 25 bucks, you'll get a chance to spin the moowheel and win prizes. so do head there, if you want to have fun. i'll be working somewhere else though. sighs.
