Every year on February fourteenth without fail, I wear whatever pink/red/white outfit I have picked ahead of time to wear that day, I get out of bed with a smile, take my valentines and make my way to school. I love Valentines Day, It is one of my favorite holidays every year (excluding the Emo Year). I have no idea why cynics hate Valentines Day, It is the one day of the year that fills me with the most hope and appreciation for those I love. Some people say it is a day to make lonely people feel bad, but no one ever told me I had to be in a relationship to enjoy the day. You will usually tell your significant other you love quite often, but family and friends especially are often taken for granted. V-day is a day to show appreciation for them and you find out how many people you have in your life that love you, how could that be a holiday anyone hates?
Maybe this is just my over affectionate side speaking. I tend to come on very strong and be inappropriately affectionate with people, but on Valentines Day that’s okay. I can tell virtual strangers I love them as long as it is on a card and proceeded by the phrase “Happy Valentines day”. How nice is that, nothing I say can be seen as creepy on Valentines Day, every innuendo is “cute”. It is actually impossible for anything to be inappropriate on Valentines Day. What better holiday could exist?
