What is so special about Valentine's day? If a couple is in love, they should be celebrating their affection for each other all throughout their lifetime together and not focus on this single day every year. Girls and getting flowers and chocolates all over campus - you can hear a shriek of excitement or laughters of surprise from everyone who gets something from their significant other or from a yet to be sealed relationship partner. Of course, there are also those who end up going home crying their hearts out because their significant other seems to be ignorant of the very day or has no interest in spending on such fancy gifts or simply because they don't have a significant other. I was once in that same position..both the happy and the sad ones. Today, I am just amused at the happiness I see in some and wish that the sadness I see in others would go away. I have realized that V day does not mean anything if the love is celebrated that particular day but not at all for the rest of the year.
While the celebration is going on around campus, I'm stuck here at the basement of Pharmacology and Toxicology building. That's the only disadvantage of the Young lab - no windows!!! I won't be able to see the sun as much as I wish anymore. I come in at 7am in the morning when the sun is not up yet and I leave at 6pm when the sun has already set. Gosh..this is not life!! Hmm..maybe I can just download a picture of a sunny day and place it on my desktop. Yeah..that would definitely be a good idea.
Time to get back to work = more about toxins and immunology. Do I really want to do this for the rest of my life? Sigh, here comes the dilemma again.

I have no feelings towards V-day.
It has become one of the holidays like Maal Hijrah. It would have more meaning if I get a day off from lectures and work :)
Since there's no holiday, it's just another boring day to me!
toxins and immunology...
so u study cells and how they react to certain substances?
"-) Where are you girl?
I miss you :((
V-day has becoming an epidermic beyond control. Here we are a bunch of friends trying to celebrate a friend's birthday, who's coincidentally born on the 14th of Febuary.
Imagine to our distress when we arrived at a Japanese restaurant only to find the whole restaurant packed and we're forced to wait for our turn.
I mean, what the hell is this? Everyday is a Valentine's Day if both couple really do take it to their heart. Not only to celebrate it during the auspicious day.
zbjernak: close...not to certain substances but to bacterial cell components.
kef: sorry dear. I haven't manage to get my pc up and running yet so no Yahoo! messenger for me till I can 'activate' my pc.
jaselee: tell me about it! It felt like everyone was just so fake.
Since they're so intend of celebrating Valentine's, I guess these ah-toos & ah-kows (dogs & pigs) cannot be avoided. But DO THEY HAVE TO PICK A JAPANESE RESTAURANT?
I mean, if they would really want to pick a romantic spot, choose something like a French or Italian restaurant. Do they do that? NOOOOO. They'd rather stick their butt in some totally non related place.
Think of it, Asian culture doesn't contain much romantic value. It's like celebrating V-day in a Chinese restaurant!
Well, what can I say? This goes to show the education level of these ah-toos & ah-kows...
Wow working in a lab the whole day??
I will be waiting for you patiently...
(In another word, do get it fixed asap)...
My turn to need emotional support...
technical support and all kinda bra support I need...
I feel like I'm going to fall.
