All my life I've never really cared for Valentine's Day. For me its always been just another day. Seriously, why should I care? Its not like we get the day off from school, right!. Every year Valentine's Day come and go before I know it, and it affects me in no way. I mean absolutely no way!! You know how you hear about, read about, see on tv, or even know people personally who particularly on this day get depressed as they are reminded of how empty and lonesome their lives are by this certain 'Day for Lovers'; well not me. However, the more I thought of this true fact, the more intrigued I was. "Well" I thought, "not that I care, but how come I've never had to celebrate Valentine's Day? Does that mean that I have been single every fucking Valentine's Day of my life? But how can that be? I know I am not the most luckiest girl in this world when it comes to love and romance, but I have been in a couple of short-lived relationships here and there. Did none of my relationships ever go through a Valentine's Day? Seriously, but how can that be!! Forget about spending this day with a significant other, hell I've never even spent Valentine's Day thinking 'Oh I wish we were still together, then we'd be in each other arms celebrating this special day together'. "
As I kept thinking of these things and gasping in disbelief at my history of (or the lack of) Valentine's Day, I realized that other than this most recent one I've never ever h

ad a break-up. Every previous guy that I've dated or had an interest in, well the love/ attraction just faded away mutually from both sides, so in a way I've never had to say goodbye, be heartbroken, or cry over lost love until now. WOW, how come I never thought of it before!! May be this is why Valentine's Day for me was never a day to celebrate love or cry over who could have been the love of your life. However, with the recent events in my life, I'm kinda dreading Valentine's Day. I know I will be thinking stuff like "If only things had worked out between us, we'd be celebration this day (not necessarily together because of the distance)". As it is I miss him a lot, and I know that on that certain day I will be missing him more than usual, and I don't want that to happen. My only saving grace is the fact that this year
Losar (Tibetan New Year) happens to fall on the same day as this dreaded day. Thank God!!! So that means that on Feb 14 this year I will be dressed in
chuba, in cho cho Lodoe's house celebrating
Losar with the rest of my family (can you believe its the year of the Tiger already. Wow seriously am I that old!) I know being with family and wishing everyone "Losar Tashi Delek" will take my mind of the fact that its Valentine's Day, but I dont think the V-day decorations all over the stores, posters of the new upcoming movie
Valentine's Day all over the subway will help me forget it.
Here's the trailer :http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iPEipw_fcco
Talking of this movie, I really want to watch it. I first came upon the trailer of this movie on youtube back in September or October, and instantly wanted to watch it (well, the fact that I was in a relationship back then and really happy was a major factor in this enthusiasm towards this movie). I even remember sending the link to the trailer to my friend TT on facebook, and writing on her wall 'we HAVE to watch this movie when it comes out'. Well, that was back in September. Its almost Febuary now, and I still want to watch it but I'm not sure if I shoud cuz I feel like it'll only remind me of what I lost, what could have been, and all the emotions that I was finally able to suppress in order to move on will resurface and I will be back on square one. O what the hell, its only a movie for God's sake! Movies are just made for entertainment, right?
Ummm, I really dont know where this post is heading. Seems like I'm just typing whatever is coming to my mind. See I soooo lack direction, both in my blog posts, and in my life. O well, I'm not gonna bore you guys any longer.
HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY AND HAPPY LOSAR TO EVERYONE!!
(in advance obviously)
