Valentines Day

I bet you all are thinking that just because I'm writing about Valentines day, it's either going to be all lovey dovey, or all I HATE THE WORLD.

However, I'm going to write just what I feel about it~

First, let me start off with the fact that today is the official "To Write Mudblood on Her Arms" day.
We take this day to remember that all of us are equal, regardless of race, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity, age, religion, or magical ability. We write "mudblood" on our arms this day not only to remember the pain inflicted on Hermione Granger by Bellatrix Lestrange for being born to Muggles, but to acknowledge the hardships people have faced for being perceived as different.We invite Muggles and Wizards alike to join us in writing "mudblood" on our arms as a symbol to show that while we are all different, we are all equal.



Now, enough about that. lol. 
Well, first of all, I hate Valentines day because it is just another day to spend money and treat the girl/boy of your choice like the prince/princess that you think they are. When you should be showing that person love all the time. Not to mention the fact that we celebrate the mass murder of hundreds of people. Really makes me want to go buy some chocolate.

And while I do hate all that stuff. I hate the most the fact that they expect you to sweep the person off their feet with all of this stuff. When, in reality you should be showing everyone that you love them every day. That's why it's so hard for me to write heartfelt things in Valentines and hand them out. Because my favorite way to show my friends and family that I love them is by doing small little things every once and awhile. Like buying them something that I know they really want and surprising them with it. Or leaving little love notes on their dorm door and not saying who it was. I don't need just one day to tell them I love them. 
So, sorry to everyone who still hasn't gotten a valentine, because I think you should know that I love you regardless. <3



Also, the fact that I've never been in a relationship isn't bad. And I'm honestly not annoyed by it. People always ask me "Oh, well you must hate Valentines day. Since you've never had a boyfriend". Then I just give them this blank look and then when they're least expecting it- I punch them in the vagina. xDD jkjkjkjk. >.>.....
But seriously. It is true that I haven't been in a relationship ever. And it is true that I really would like to have that experience. However, I don't need a boy or a girl to make me who I am. I have TONS of friends and am pretty well liked without the help of a significant other. And asking me if it makes me sad seeing everyone so happy is just annoying. Why would I be sad seeing people happy with the one they love? I'm happy for them! As long as they don't just start procreating while I'm in the same room.
 
Because no matter  what gender they are and who they're with- it's gross either way. xP


And hearing people whine about being single is just as annoying. If you want a boyfriend/girlfriend, go out and make yourself pretty and find one. They aren't just going to magically appear in front of you and propose. This isn't Disney, people. lol
Uggggg.

But yes, my Valentines day was fun though~ Most of the single people (excluding Chuck) in my hall all dressed up and we went to Valsetz. xD The dining hall on campus. lol. It was fun. And I got lots of Valentines and we had lots of laughs! I hope next year is just as awesome! <3

Peace, love, and follow the spiders~ <3

  1. I agree about Valentines Day, I didn't even like it the one year I had a boyfriend on the day. The sweetest thing a guy (specifically the one I had on the day that year) has ever done for me was not on Valentines Day, it was really random and it was just a list of everything he liked about me. The sweetest thing ever because it was so unexpected- even though we've broken up and I've moved on since him, I still have it!

    It also puts unwanted pressure on couples to show the person how much they care- and what if they are just a casual thing? Nothing serious at all? Or that level of anything hadnt been addressed yet..It just kind of makes things awkward I THINK.
    I just really hate Valentines Day, I went to the mall yesterday with the idea of throwing stuff at couples or anyone holding a Valentines balloon or something... Unfortunately I guess couples don't like hanging out at the mall on Vday. It was disappointing.


    Wait... Vday is about killing people?? Do Explain???
