roses, gifts and love

roses, gifts and love

After a long morning of Summer Touch League at Turf City, Glenn and I hopped onto Cupid's bandwagon of Valentine's madness and dove into the crowd of bouquet-carrying girls and less happy guys. Hahaha. Yes yes, it's been said a thousand times that Valentine's is over-rated and highly commercialized. I know it perfectly well but I still love this day to bits. It's my favourite day of the year besides Christmas and my birthday!

So anyway, we went to Jack's Place for dinner and skipped past all the couples with no reservations happily. Haha! Oh dear, I'm being so bitchy here but blame the lousy guys who don't plan ahead! Hee. Jack's Place was quite funny; because it was Valentine's, they tried to do everything in heart shapes, INCLUDING MY STEAK! Hahaha. Which of course turned out rather hideous but yummy. :D

A walk by the river afterwards was really nice. There were hearts all over the place and love was very much in the air. Singapore was so romantic for once. Everywhere is on this day. (: I always loved Valentine's Day back in AC - everyone would be lugging huge bags of presents to school early in the morning, balloons and roses would paint the void deck in pinks and reds, and for the only time in the entire year, teachers would even forgive us for skipping classes.

As much as Valentine's has been commercialized, I still think it's a day tailored for love. I also think this is why the economy loves girls like us! Haha. I hope you'all had a day full of love too!



Our table number at Jack's Place.

Him, waiting for food as usual. Haha.

My funny heart-shaped steak. Hahaha.
But A for effort.

These lovely hearts were projected onto the floor outside the Esplanade.

I think this would be what they call "lonely hearts". HAHA.

Love songs and such.

We camwhored for the longest before taking a nice, unshaky shot.
But I love this photo! (:

Then there was the one on timer.
Quite a nice one too!

I love the Singapore skyline at night, especially The Fullerton.

The one man in the crowd. (:

And then of course there's the customary "could you please help us take a photo because we want to remember this Valentine's Day" shot.

So yes, Happy Valentine's!
