Thoughts
Hey I found out that I am in denial, yep. And because Dain didn't do this, i will. Rant time. My mom senses my moping and to make me "feel better" buys me a valentine, which she has never done before. So half way through school realizing that my only valentine was from my mom, got me into grr mood. After grr mood comes the mode where I just say, "Come on really" but to no avail. Then comes silence then...wow I am a loser. All because of a friendly juester from my mom, which whom I'm not mad at, just if Valentines day didn't exist I wouldn't be questioning how much of a soclial person I am and my spot in society. I don't necessarily hate valentines day, I just dont like what it ends up as. Valentines day gives couples a chance to express their love that they usually dont show, but I just hate it that this love is taken by the stores so that the "love" has to be $1000 dollar item thay gets thrown away the day after. Then because of our supposed roles, men buy the gifts and expect nook nook in return, ahh I HATE that. Society is messed up...ah oh well, you deal with what you get and well it could be worse...so thats how it falls. I guess I will go on doing what everyone is expected to do... live our existence. Like Sara said, "Everyone is different, and everyone is the same...." I can't wait to get away and think this weekend.

Yeah, society is definitely messed up.
Ick. I know exactly what you mean - the way everyone is made to play games these days, a fellow can't feel safe giving a gift nor a lady receiving one, nor is it fair for expectations to be set up in such a way for that to always be the way! Fairness, equality, equivocation - trade and balance. There is still such a double standard in society, for guys and girls alike. Days like Valentine's Day feed that. It really Isn't the concept of V-Day (love, appreciation, etc.), but it's the way it has been played. Christmas still can cling to its dignity somehow, despite the people fighting over Tickle-Me-Elmo in the parking lots, but Valentine's day... I don't know what it is, but somehow it hasn't maintained any innocence or even self-respect.
