Valentine's Day...Sort of

Happy Valentine’s Day, everybody. Well, I guess technically it’s the day after, but I just got done with all my homework. WHAT A DAY! Instead of spending the day with my girlfriend, I had to go to chemistry. Then I had to do this stupid paper for my engineering class. If you are thinking about becoming an engineer and haven’t already invested time in the first semester, stop thinking about it. This sounds like it will be a fun profession, but the school for it sucks ass.
So, my girlfriend and I are celebrating tomorrow, or today, or whatever it is. I don’t even care anymore. I am so glad that Friday is approaching. I only have two
classes and usually no homework. Sleep is calling, but I’m not done with the requirement yet.
The discussion in class today was interesting. Zachary seems like a pretty cool guy but did anyone else notice that he seemed like he was about to have an anxiety attack? He was swaying back and forth the entire class period. It was weird. Oh well.
I know that this is going to sound very cynical of me, but I don’t see the point to Valentine’s Day. It seems like an excuse to sell cards, candy, and flowers. If it were up to me, I wouldn’t celebrate it. However, I have a girlfriend, so it’s sort of an obligation.

Yeah, I have some problems with Valentine's Day too. I don't mind the fact that it is a field day for advertising companies, but I get mad at the principle of it all. Why can't every day be a "Valentine's Day" for couples. Like you said, it can become more of an obligation if you let it.
