Hmmmm...so anyway, I decided to make a blog entry for this season. After all, it is a time for couples to be corny, mushy and be lovey-dovey with each other :) hehehe
So, I would like to start as to how it came to be. According to the ever helpful wikipedia, Saint Valentine's Day aka Valentine's Day or the feast of Saint Valentine is a holiday observed on February 14th. Although it began as a liturgical celebration, later on, during the high middle ages in Geoffrey Chaucer's court, it was associated with romantic love.
And in 18th century England, it evolved into an occasion which lovers expressed their love for each other by presenting flowers, offering confectionery and sending greeting cards known as"valentines". Which is why today, so many people are very busy making cards, reserving hotels & restaurants, buying bouquets, chocolates, truffles and just about anything sweet.
However, I really think it is not important what gift you give as long as you are together..(hehehe..medjo palusot coz I haven't yet bought mine for my bf). What is essential is that you constantly make efforts to show and express your love for one another so that your relationship will become stronger as the years pass by. Still, it is very heartwarming and sort of different to receive something on this occasion from your special someone . 'Tis after all the season of hearts..so love love love :) <3
