"Valentine's Day is a holiday celebrated on February 14. It is the traditional day on which lovers express their love for each other; sending Valentine's cards, or offering candy. It is very common to present flowers on Valentine's Day. The holiday is named after two among the numerous Early Christian martyrs named Valentine. . . . In Ancient Rome, February 15 was Lupercalia, an archaic rite connected to fertility, without overtones of romance. This is thought to be the origin of Valentine's Day, being renamed and retrofitted to fit Christian beliefs."
This quote means that Valentines Day is basically a pagan holiday that has been redesigned into a Christian holiday. (Like so many others . . .)!
By the way, I sign!

I sign. I hope everyone has a good Valentine's Day. ---
This is going to be my first Valentine's Day with a boyfriend so I am pretty thrilled. I am going to give him money to shop with, a card and buy the tickets for our school dance. He is getting me the money Practical Magic(I love that movie), Fannie May Pixies, a card, and a giant stuffed animal.

This will also be my first Valentine's with a boyfriend, but I am reluctant to celebrate it. I don't like the way commercialism has swallowed it whole. We do nice things for each other anyway.
Why should we have to spend twice as much to go out for a meal on a specific day? I just don't like it. And it's not practical for us.
That makes me sound like a proper meanie, doesn't it? sweatdrop

I have to admit I'm one of the people who dislike Valentine's day (at least, the YOU MUST BUY LOTS OF THINGS BECAUSE THAT IS LOVE part) but hey, it'd be an excuse to do everything or nothing with my significant other.
Least, would be if she wasn't in Ireland. But we can pretend another day. xp
