It's the day of the year for all the lovey-dovey stuffs! Roses, chocolates, soft toys, etc... The list goes on. And who is the happiest of them all? Girls?? Nah... I would say it's the merchandisers! Hahahaa...
Don't get me wrong... I may say this but I am actually an avid supporter of this kind of things. Anytime there's a special day coming up, you'll find me bustling around gift shops and whatever related shops WAY in advance - just trying to get the right piece of card and the right piece of gift. And I'll be there like many, many times, just so that I don't make the wrong buy! ;D
Anyway, so back to the topic - the No. 2 happiest of them all would be of course the girls. Yes, you have guessed it right. Even though it is a day to celebrate love, not just between a pair of lover, but also between family members and friends - the focus is still on the girls! We'd be showered with all the goodies, when majority of the guys could only watch with envy.
Even at workplace, our ever so kind CEO presented each and every one of the girls in the company with a box of Ferrero Rocher, as a token of appreciation - and it's solely for girls, nothing for the guys! Haha! And this is the way it is each year, when it comes to Valentine's day. Face it guys, not your day. ;P [My guy colleagues are gonna come after me!]

And everywhere you go, there you see - roses from fiance, teddy from boyfriend... Nothing delivered to the guys and you hear them complaining, "I'm broke, man. And later, gotta fork out money for dinner... And Chinese New Year is so near, need to buy hampers... Where to find the money?"
Even me, I have a nice bouquet of roses from my dear hubby - with a sweet white teddy in the middle holding a heart saying 'I love you', together with a card that sings a tune and also with red hearts popping here and there in the bouquet. And I'm the centre of attention for the department this year - as I'm the only lucky person to have stuffs delivered to the office! ;D
Anyway, Happy Valentine's Day! Enjoy it with your loved ones. Remember - even the smallest of token should be appreciated with a happy heart as it is the thought that counts, not the size nor value!
