Okay. Let's face it. Cupid is already sharpening his arrow for the upcoming Valentine's day. Now, I know a lot of you become jittery nowadays knowing that Heart's Day is fast approaching. Two. TWO MORE DAYS TO GO! Yes, you've read it right. Two more days to go, Valentine's is up! It has commonly been assumed that during Valentine's day, people should show love and importance to their own loved ones. So, i have a question, do you now know what to do during this once a year of celebration of love? Have you had any idea what to give to your loved ones? Or have you planned already the once a year special date on this special occasion? If not, spare the jitters and read what I have in stored for you. Just like cupid, I would like to help the ones in need of love advice.
Spare the money you'll cost in buying the chocolates. Yes! I'm dead serious. Chocolates for Valentine's Day may be nice but it's waaaay too costly since chocolates would price higher during this day. If you really want to give something, why not give her, her favorite dessert? Or bake a special cake for her? Or why don't the two of you bake the cake together? In that way, you can still have a bonding time with each other and believe me, this is going to be fun for the two of you! It would be one of the best valentine's day, ever!
The flowers. The bouquet. I know it would be nice to look at her smelling the flowers. But then again, it's pricey at this time of the year. Get crafty, my friend. Why not print pictures of you together and form it as a collage with reasons why you've fallen in love with her? Now, that's what I call SWEET. Or, print a shirt where both of you can have? Same design with different messages? Call it a couple shirt or what not. You can also print both shirts with a crafty joke printed on it. Or, you can print all the pictures you have together and paste it up in an album and write a caption in each picture. May it be a sweet note or a joke perhaps. Flowers will wilt but the craft you'll make would forever stay within the two of you. It's something to look back to when the two of you grow a year older. Simple, sweet yet memorable.
I understand how you would want to treat your special someone to a nice candle light dinner in a fancy restaurant. Yes, I get that. But, again, think how much it would cost you when you can always have a dinner somewhere else. Take her to the beach and bring her, her favorite salad. Or stay at your house and cook a dinner for the two of you. Cooking a pasta won't hurt and then enjoying a romantic movie after wards is not bad, right? Restaurants tend to set price higher for this occasion. So, why not create your own resto at your place or a place where the two of you can spend a time together?
Let's be practical. We're having a global financial crisis. So, instead of going for the traditional ways to celebrate valentines, why not go for the practical way? You might not know it but this can be one of the simplest yet memorable valentines you'll ever have. What's good thing with being practical is that there's a touch of thoughtfullness in it. It's not customary. It is something new. So, think out of the box. Know what she likes. Know what makes her happy. Don't be fooled by the flowers, chocolates and fancy dinner. There are a lot more better than that. Believe me, I know.
