A huge social event in rememberance and celebration of those in courtship OR a huge commercial scheme to wring every single penny from unsuspecting people with unsensibly overpriced roses and chocolates?
Hmm… Do I argue due to the fact that I don’t have anyone to celebrate with? Do I argue because my life is a tad bit on the sad side? Or do I argue due to the fact that my brain works in tandem with logic and sensibility? What do I have against Vday? Nothing reallly, its just that I do not justify buying (or selling for that matter) outrageously overpriced roses as a token of love and emotions. Am I just being pessimistic? I have to admit, I am one of those who paid outrageous prices for chocolates, but I really thought it would be a nice gesture to a friend and a classmate. She bought something for me, and I’m not exactly a un-appreciative person, I might sound rather hum-drum… being all that: “You buy me a present and I’ll buy you something back… ” scenario, but a friendly gesture deserves another friendly gesture; Its a part of morality and being a gentleman really. Anyhow was I being to much of a pessimists in arguing the nature of Vday? You be the judge
