Valentine's Day... For or against?

jeepnut was on the phone with his mom last night and she asked him he was getting her something for Valentine's day... that was kind of funny to hear, I've never thought about getting something for my parents, eventhough they used to get me something.

Heh... whenever I buy something for my parents, these are the usual responses that I get:

(i) Don't waste money.
(ii) Don't waste our money (I'm still fully dependent on them)
(iii) Okay, what do YOU want?

So now I just resort to giving them handmade things.

Still, where I grew up, Valentine's Day is pretty much reserved for people who are in a 'romantic' relationship.

I have nothing against it.

I love it, I don't just do a valentines day. I do a valentines week. I buy my girlfriend a little present each day until the day of valentines. Then I get her something big and take her out for anything she wants to do. However since I'm in a "war zone" it's kinda difficult to take her out

Lol, I'm glad you like it.. I really hope she does and she's just not telling me that she does because I really want to make her happy. Thats my goal in life for the time being, I know I'm 20 but I really hope to marry this girl one day
