Heart’s Day

So as not to make this blog feel the melancholic of the departure of our little angel, mama faye will still continue blogging about everything. Know that you’ll always be here in our hearts, bunso. Always be remembered. Happy heart’s day our little cupid.
For years that Mr. A and I had been together, it’s rare that we go out on valentines day itself even when we were just starting. First, we wanted to avoid the crowd. Secondly, we don’t want to do the very cliché valentines date, no offense to those who do. Thirdly, I hate seeing flowers everywhere I look. Honestly, I don’t like flowers. They wither. They are exorbitantly pricey *here in Singapore*. And they are good for few weeks but afterwards they are good for nothing but trash. But here’s the big BUT. I “ooooh” whenever I see guys taking the effort to buy and bring and give them to their partners. I smile whenever I see heart shaped helium balloons or one single red rose or a teddy bear. It always brought me back to my high school days. :) I like the idea of flowers on a valentines day on other people. And I like seeing the imaginary little hearts floating in the air every 14th of the second month of the year :)
Anyway, we went out last friday and went to Que Pasa - our used-to-be hangout place – to have a little date. Our feet just took us there. We were glad to found a vacant place outside because we love to do people-watching game. We were ecstatic to see that my favorite beef stew is back! Hooray!
As for today, V day, we were home by 9, had pinoy style bistek and watched “Gullivers Travel” *thanks ami!* with baby C and it was the perfect valentines date for me. Well, until she got bored *after only 15 minutes!* and took out all her toys. :D A perfect date is not about the fancy restaurant or the beautiful bouquet but the person or the people you’re with during this time of the month.
Happeeeee V Day everyone! Spread the love!
