V is for Vitagen, eh Valentine's oops!

Yesterday was Valentine’s Day.

A few of bouquet of roses reached my office yesterday, belongs to amoi amoi kat admin dept,hah nampakla muka sorang2 glowing and radiant sbb dpt bunga dr boifren masing2

‘wow!a full bouquet of lilies!this must be very expensive!’I told ms kor yg tgh teruja dpt bunga

‘yeah..my favourite flower,that’s why my boifren buy this for me” she smell the flower, put up a smile and walk away. After that I was bombarded with this fav q from all of my colleagues “what did you get from your hubby for valentine’s present?” or ‘what type of flowers your hubby get for you?” and I was like duhhhh..tiap2 taun soalan ni mesti ada k,and tetiap taun jugak aku kena ckp ‘I don’t celebrate valentine, everyday is a valentine day for me and hubby’ ..aku tau ayat tu mmg berbunyi poyo dan eksyen, tp mmg aku saja nak ckp mcmtu so org yg tanya aku tu terus ‘oooo ok that’s good’ terus blah sbb dah tak tau nak ckp apa.

I mean, aku mmg tak sambut valentine’s pun, in fact 14th feb tiap2 thn adalah sama jer mcm hari2 biase yg lain, nothing special for me and hubby..mmg dr zaman bercinta dulu we dont really practisekan hari valentine’s ni sbg agenda wajib tahunan ..lain la birthday or anniversary atau hari bapa/ibu..tapi special sgt ke valentine’s ni? Kampung ke aku ni sbb tak celebrate?ke sbb working environment aku dikelilingi chinese2 yg mmg suka dgn benda camni menyebabkan aku tetiba terasa diri ni conservative dan kolot, tak mengikuti peredaran zaman bak kata org-but ada juga a few of my friends malay yg celebrate valentine’s ni;pegi hair stylist buat rambut, cari dress nak pakai gi candlelite dinner, boifren dtg ketuk pintu umah bwk bouquet of flowers, pergi candlelite dinner tangkap2 gambar then exchanged present hah!giler sebijik plot drama.

me?it’s a BIG NO NO fo Mr R.A to ask me out and celebrate valentine’s day,he just doesn’t believe in all this v day thing and fret not,sekelumit pun aku tak amik ati, I’m fine with it, why?selain dr aku merasa ni bkn budaya kita,k la aku ngaku, sbb yg lain ialah aku tak reti dgn benda2 ni sebenarnya hihi-aku tak reti nak beromantika kat bwh cahaya lilin, mkn terkuis2 dan tersipu2 sambil muzik mengiringi kesipuan aku..tak reti laa..kami adalah couple yg kayu, dua2 straight spt kayu, tp tak la pulak lnsg tak romantic, mushy2 thing ni adalah jugak cuma it’s not that formal-ye la,aku suka mkn kat tmpt yg bingit yet happening, dulu2 masa bercinta slalu dating kat uptown, hartamas square, ravi, uncle don..tak ke semua tmpt2 bingit dan memekak?so masa dating ckp pun terjerit2 sambil makan, tu tak kira aku mengilai lagi tu, so celah mananya romantik? really la i'm not used with this suasana lampuan kelam muzik melancholic ni sume-and and..aku tak reti appreciate bunga jugak..rugi jer nnti hubby beli beratus2 ringgit,and biase la being typical kampung minded aku mesti punya ckp ‘drpd belikan bunga yg beratus2 ni baik belikan i jewelry or baju or kasut’ hihi-tp ye la tak sume couple pelik mcm kitaorg ni kan, aku paham, kdg2 couple saja jer seronok2 nak sambut ni kan?takpe la,as long stil berlandaskan agama dan tak terpesong,tak salah pun..

Just say that I’m conservative, kampung, kolot orthodoks takpe, aku tak marah, but I really need to know and kind of wonder, kenapa la perlu memberi bunga di hari valentine?tau tak harga bunga bape hengget je kalau hari2 biase,ni kenapa la kena sampai beratus2 di hari valentine ni?dan tau tak bunga itu akan kering dan layu dan akan terperosok di ceruk rumah at the end of the day?tak ke tu satu pembaziran?utk makluman diamond atau kasut atau baju tidak akan layu dan kering ya.

Happy valentine’s day juga utk awak2 semua (belated)-muahhsss
