Happy Valentine's Day

Valentine's Day from my point of view. Every single thing in this world has pros and cons, have good and bad, have people who agree with and people who do not. Here in Malaysia, I think the way we (for whose celebrating) celebrate give pressure to everyone. It doesn’t matter whether you're single or not. Of course the pressures differ.

If you're single, maybe you'll feel a bit tense coz u don’t have special someone to be with on this day. And if you're not single, the pressure to impress or to show how much you love your partner will take it's toll.

The way we here celebrate this day was similar to Western style, the pressure mostly on men but do you know in Japan and Korea, on Valentine's Day the pressure was on women. On this day, women will give candy to men they like. Rather than being voluntary however, this has become an obligation for women there to give chocolates to all their male co-workers, sometimes at significant personal expense. Huh...

Some people blame the big company that promotes this day as their marketing strategy. Some people just happy there's one more day that dedicated to them to show their love. Some people just don't care.

Whoever you're I wish you Happy Valentine's Day. Do you feel the pressure??

Haha...
