Celebrating Valentine's Day Alone
I know Valentine's Day is over but that doesn't mean I can't write about it now. Actually, I was supposed to publish this on that day but something came up and with my 2-years-old clingy nephew, I just couldn't.
I know most of you had a blast on Valentine's Day. Probably some of you went out for a date with your partner, hangout with the family, or got to travel somewhere with friends but not me. As usual, Valentine's Day is just another day to me. I know this moment is not just for people who have partners-in-crime, but I just don't celebrate it.
So last February 14, I was at home alone. Yes, I was all alone at that time while the rest of my family went to the nearby beach. As most of you know, I'm still using crutches and that hinders me to go out and have fun outside. So they all went out while me alone with my furbabies.
To be honest, being alone is never an issue to me. Being an introvert myself, things make a lot better when I'm at home. So on that day, I've had a blast with me, myself, and I by enjoying a movie marathon on my computer. I watched 3 movies in a row while also playing Pegaxy. I know this may sound boring to you but at least, I got to rest for few hours without kids' fighting, baby's crying, or my sister's constant nagging.
So how was yours? How did you spend your Valentine's Day? Was it good? Memorable? Well-spent? Or a disaster?
As for me, it was alright! Nothing fancy but it was a peaceful day, which I badly needed these days. Still, I'm open for a possibility of having fun with someone special on Valentine's Day. I don't know if that's even possible, but we'll see.
Closing thoughts
I don't have a special memories on Valentine's Day, except for a former colleague and current fellow scholar who went to my house to bring me a Goldilocks' cake and 2 small teddy bears.
It was not something he initiated though. He was challenged by our colleagues to send me those coz, at that time, they knew he had a crush on me.
Oh, there's another one! It was a guy who confessed his feelings toward me saying this and that on Valentine's Day but when I rejected him, he went on to my sister in less than a week. They are still together now and no hard feelings. I'm just happy he's nice to my niece and nephews, and my sister is happy. That's all that matters to me.
