..the love that is so hyped, we 'loosers' think

And they waited for the flowers, for the gifts and for the mesagges, whether through texts or verbally. Hope they did come, but if they did not, thats where the issue called 'loniless' hits hard. We all like to be loved, eventhough some of us do not have lovable attributes. We pretend to be hard-to-get, snobs, of a higher class, and more importantly, too principled. But valentine day separates the chuff from the husks..or the seeds. As the 'easy' gets the flowers and the 'un-class' get the presents, the rest just watch sulkingly, blaming everyone else for hyping the pre-sci-fi generation culture that is St.Valentine day.

We should not feel bad for them, we should show gratitude that atleast we lived to see the day. Infact, we should even make fun of the day and buy ourselves flowers and gifts, and even send ourselves messages..now that no one else will do it. Can't wait to do this for myself next year!!

..the resolutions that were,

Come January 1st, 2011, and we were all there ..trying to make new year resolution that we hope we would adhere to. New social standings, education, hobbies, friends, virtues, career....the list is endless. But look at us now...exactly 38 days later and we are all over ourselves with broken, unmet and unkept resolutions. The staying sober has been hard, presumably took only two days. The chastity that did not even materialize, especially with the online-sex frenzy that is 2go and Facebook, the need to eliminate some friends collapsed especially after realisisng you owe them some cash, the change of career is on hold as the CVs dropped have grown cobwebs, and the need to find a permanent partner deemed to soon because of the sweetness of being single and ready to mingle. We forget that humans like their comfort zones and that resolutions aren't made at the snap of a finger. They take time to nurture and to convince ourselves that old habits need to die, however hard it is. Anyway, let me wait for January 2012 to make my 2013 resolutions..
