my V-day at home

I spent my Wednesday at home today as I was down with stomach flu. How does this happen? I do not know. However, it wasn't such a bad thing to be able to stay home for the entire day. Even though it is Valentine's Day today, I guess it does not really matter. Whether I am not well or I am well and active, I guess it seems like a normal day to me. Last year's Valentine's Day was spent with 3 other friends. The funniest part was looking for a place for dinner. Actually it is not so difficult to look for a place for a meal if you are in town. However, on a day like this, most of the places transformed into dimly-lit space with tables arrangement set for 2. We went to a few places, and there we were, feeling rather left out with all the special v-day menu and the special furniture arrangement. It seemed like this day was exclusive only to couples. Well, we still managed to find somewhere nice for the 4 of us, single ladies, passed our mid-20s for a simple dinner, our way of celebrating Valentine's Day is to celebrate our friendship. I find it really warm and sweet. I would love love to be out on this day, meeting my friends, my buddy for a meal!!! But well, I guess I just have to stay home and be a good girl so that I can recover faster.

I wake up this morning with a couple of sms and that warms my day. A msg from moo saying she has something for me in my letterbox, a msg from buddy to ask me how I am doing (I know she is so so worried yesterday.) and later on, another one from Lynda. Thank you ladies. My day is really much warmer and more joyful.

Anyway, decicating this V-day to all singles out there, enjoy life with all the freedom we have, and live life to its fullest!!
