drop a crochet note

is currently an undergraduate student, and coping with her overwhelming commitments. I like long walks in solitude, cosy chats, usually sleep like a log, and beg your patience in tolerating my versatile humour

Well, isn't this quaint.
I'm at the peak of my unproductive best, whiling my time away in front of a blaring screen, yet perfectly aware that I will regret this approximately 24 hours later.
Charming.

I was just reading through the papers just now (luxury now, mind you, to actually have that kind to time) and scoffing at the absurdity of commercialization. Just browsing through the papers is enough to be overwhelmed by the numerous ads for the perfect Valentine's Day gift, best places for fine dining, or even the perfect attire to impress.

And here I am, still in my own little fishbowl, entertaining idealistic notions that this was a time of the union of two hearts, of the old fashioned yet rustic charm of courtship, of shy furtive glances and earnest serenading.

Of course, there will always be the quaint box of chocolates and pretty bouquet of flowers in the picture, but wouldn't you agree that everything is being just so commercialised nowadays? As what happens to every festive season, major corporations and retailer jump on the bandwagon and convince their consumers to participate in the spending culture. Sadly, we too, feel the need to fork out extorbitant amounts of money just to impress our significant others. Love is what makes the world go round, but money drives love now, does it not?

You don't need the best wine in town to make her drunk with happiness.
You don't need a reservation in the swankiest dining place to impress her.
You don't need to look your Sunday best when you take her out (although, scruffiness is never justified)
Just take her hand,
and she'd give you her heart.
