My 20 Valentines

It's Valentine's Day tomorrow and so forgive me for being uber "cooorny" right now. Just that...stumbled on a local Nescafe advertisement that really brings back a particular loverly youthful carefree memory...

I was 20 and so was he...

Course' I didn't look anything like this girl back then.I was really skinny to start with. I was in torn faded jeans and had on a shirt that boldly screamed "Nike". Doubt if I looked anything sexy' but we had bikes..ye'....

I remember biking in the rain...near the bay. I bet I looked freaky ha! ha!. When he reminds me I cringe...embarrassed you could say. Oh' but then how many sweethearts get to really silly run through a downpour huh?. Those were our "who gives a damn days".I think somehow..it still is.

How many valentines have we had since then eh?...So..


HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY to everyone. This day isn't just for lovers splish splashing.It's an intimate wonderful celebration of being One..being brothers and sisters....being human...and being divine as well. And this Love transcends all borders and boundaries..cultural..religious..language...whatever...

Everybody wants love..Everybody is LOVE...

And to the boy back then who went crazy running in the rain with me, I Love You....and I'd really rather that we have a barbeque dinner at home instead of going out...but bring home a big round of pizza...thin slice..with shrimps on top....and a bottle of wine of course..

You know what I mean ;>


Spread the love everyone..mwah!

Aaahhh..that is so so romantic! I have that rainy moment too..it was rather brief though..we were running maybe more than 10 years ago..me drenched in my long tunic traditional 'baju kurung' and headscarf..and him in his 'formal' attire (business student) trying to catch the bus. But I love the feeling. Happy Valentine Lux!

what a sweet memory ..
no need to be embarrassed about being wet..
sounds like fun..

yah, mr foam and i had our wet moment too.
the day we met, which was at a lake i had a notion that i might want to get rid of him .. so i started swimming the length of the lake ..
and he kept right up with me ..

Happy VD to you too. I'm guessing that everyone misses their early youth, to some extent.

It's nice to think that one can be as carefree as one used to be, or even try belly-dancing moves without feeling stiffness.

On the other hand, you've had twenty happy Valentines in a row. Your average 20-year old can only envy you.
