Happy Valentine's/Single Awareness/Be A Kid Day...

Feb 14, 2007 20:02

Hmmm, well today went as I expected it to. Today, like any other day was just basically just another Wednesday, but with that little bit missing (which I was being overly hopeful for I guess). Today, I went to my classes, but wasnt really in a focusing on stuff I guess. As I sat there in class, I would hear "My boyfriend got me this" and stuff along those lines. And even though I dont like the idea of the commercialization of Valentine's Day and society's need for us to propagate the need to buy all that lacey, heart covered stuff just on one day (when you could be an actual gentleman or etc and not limit it to just one day...a day everyone judges if you do it or not though). Anyways, I was hearing all that stuff today, and it did make me a little sad inside. I kind of felt like I wanted to treat somebody today. Now, that may be the 'Halmarkian' lobbyists that try to work their magic on the masses, or just the fact I kind of wanted to treat somebody today regardless that it was Feb 14th today.I am unsure, but around 9:00 tonight I definitely started to feel the effects of 'Single Awareness Day' (thanks to whoever coined that phrase btw, way to boost the confidence of the masses...lol). Anyways, I wanted to not necessarily have a Valentine, but to just be able to share in that feeling that everyone had today, but as the day draws to a close, it seems my fate has been sealed, and once again, today has became another 'Single Awareness/Begining of Anti-Valentine Movie Marathon Time.' Maybe that might cheer me up. Clerks 2, A Scanner Darkly, Donnie Darko, Dawn of the Dead, Fight Club.I could pick from a few of these.I probably will go with genuinely good movies tonight and pick A Scanner Darkly, Donnie Darko, and Fight Club. Hmmm, I just hate resorting to this. hate bringing out the 'last minute, anti-day party' card. Man, for people that are together today, today is great, but for those who arent really into Valentine's Day or anything like that in general, that little bit of bummed out feeling that comes with the end of the day still happens, and that kinda sucks.
Well, I guess today wasnt all bummed outness though (by the above you would think..but I am just commenting on the day in general). I spent a good portion of my day just hanging out with friends, talking to peoples, playing my reliable Final Fantasy (*insert dork reference*..lol), and working on a couple of assignments I needed to get done. Man, when I type out my day, I sound depressing...lol. The truth of the matter is though that though I may have not partaken in this 'chocolate high-induced' day, I still had fun with friends that I care about. Well, I am going to begin my movies for the night, so I will leave ya guys for the night. Hope you all had a fun day (no matter your beliefs on the day) and see ya later...
