St. Valentine's Day

Countdown to the big 14 of the year. As many of your reading this do know about the day 14th of Feb, but do you guys know the origins of the day itself? Read more

Anyway, as i accompanied my friends to do some shopping for gifts for the upcoming big day for their partners, i start to realise it's been some time since i really put my heart and mind to doing something or getting something for anyone. So as i'm approached for help by my pals on what to get and stuff, the old me would probably have shelves of ideas and tonnes of creativity up my sleeves, but if you ask me now, i have none to offer.

The only thing i can say is that i'm glad i don't have to worry about v-day, at least not for this year again. Somehow as time goes, i'm more into the heck care mood. Just can't be bother to entertain people. Maybe the old me i'm more proactive when it comes to gals, but as more contacts i have with them, the least i feel there's a need to be always the Santa.

So if you would to ask me now, if i do have a partner, what would i do or get for her on v'day, i must say honestly, the romantic juices in me have already long gone run dry. Get a branded bag, and head to a restuarant perhaps? How gay can that be. Where's the thoughtful, what she fancy, what she likes mentality gone to.

Lately i realised my finance is in real bad shape. I seriously don't know where did my allowance from the army gone to. I haven't been getting anything for myself lately, and the only notable amount i spent is for a friend's birthday. Thought it did just cross the 3 digit mark, it was just one of the only few things i spent on. Every now and then, i realised i'm paying for this and that. I've cut down alot on cabs as compared to cadet days, and instead spend hours on the conventional public transport. Yet apparently, my wallet is just getting thinner by the days.

Maybe i should have a accountant gf in future and make sure that i do save at least 70% of my income. But until then, i should seriously cut down spending on others and end up scratching my head thinking where did the money go to.

Lastly, if you're reading this and has yet to get something for your partner for this coming Wednesday, good luck to you. And by now i'm sure you would know who will be last in your list to ask for ideas. Till then.
