He made my day...

Valentine's day and its commercialism has brainwashed me.

But im re-programmed now.

In my teens i would sit and pine and hope that i would some day receive some over inflated flowers from a guy i really liked...

That one day i might meet someone and we would go for dinner somewhere posh and he would pay through his teeth, sell a kidney and a lung too when he realises how much it would cost.

And i have been there, and done that.

So, i can say that my quota is half full...and fortunately not empty.

But Valentine's Day has always been stressful in my opinion. Soooo much pressure on both the guy and girl. So, i am actually feeling good and im embracing the fact that im single this year.

Last year was horrendous. I felt crap on Valentine's Day...even though i was with someone.

But today, what a good way to start!

I was like 30 seconds late to my train, and the train operator that stands in the middle between all the carriages controlling the doors...he waited for me. I dont think he saw me running down the ramp at the trainstation, but he certainly heard the clicking of my heels...and so he actually waited for me! (I know i repeated myself...but he did, he waited for me!!!)

As i ran breathlessly to the closest carriage, i said "thank you!" and the doors shut behind me.

Small favours such as these makes me feel like smiling.

To all my single friends, HAPPY VALENTINE'S to YOU! Days like today make me realise and appreciate your friendship even more than i do on a day to day basis, because i know that without you i'd be a very sad soul. Know that you are loved at least by someone other than your Mum! =P
