My Post On Valentine's Day

Feb 15, 2009 20:33

To everyone, please ask yourself this question. "Why do you celebrate Valentine's Day?" I bet you can't give me a good answer.

What is Valentine's Day anyway? People contributing to the income of sellers and producers of flowers, chocolates, teddy bears, cards, etc. That's what first came inot my mind. On Valentine's Day, humans are compelled to follow rituals. They buy gifts for their lovers and friends and if you do not follow this norm, you are an outcast and a loser.

Why only show immense affection just on this day? Shouldn't true love come unscheduled? Suddenly people exchange gifts, go out on dates, help one another do stuff and make Citylink really crowded to the extent that I have to wait for so long just to get seats in New York New York.

Don't tell me I'm an anti-love activist. I'm not.

Let me evaluate this whole thing about relationships and how it relates to me.

To be honest, I don't think that this is a good time to have a relationship. Studying is seriously more important. Maybe it's not that a pressing issue to you, but it is for me. My current equilibrium has no room for the need to entertain another person. I go to school, I study (the syllabus and OUT OF THE SYLLABUS), I interact with friends and family and I enjoy the greenery in Melville Park. I don't make time for another person. Honest. I've planned my schedule and painstakingly achieved this equilibrium. So, I don't want to spoil it. Just like what we've learn in Chemistry, according to the Le Chatelier's Principle, the system will adjust itself to counter the change. The reaction that removes the change will be favoured. Similarly, if you add a guy to my life (in the romance sector), the actions leading to the removal of the guy will be favoured!

However, I think I MAY be able to squeeze time for someone that doesn't need much attention or someone that can be with me most of the time without making any special plans, eg. in school, lives in Simei, in the library. But still, I'm not actively seeking for love. I guess I don't put down romance at the very top of my priority list. Another reason would be the quality of guys. *stop the bashing already* There aren't many detestable males around, but the ones I see most of time are enough to KILL. Damn it. I need a marked change in environment.

Love, sex or money?

Hmmm, I want my audio books please. And Jessica needs a study group!
