My Life and Thoughts

Life is just a mirror, and what you see out there, you must first see inside of you.

20 Fun Ways to Spend Valentine’s Day………. ALONE

  1. Spend the day in front of the mirror, telling yourself that you are grateful you are smart, gorgeous and single.
  2. Replay in your mind all the hideous quarrels your parents had while you were growing up (and still do) and thank your lucky stars you don’t have to go through any of that.
  3. Remind yourself that half of all marriages end in divorce. Who needs the hassle?
  4. Go shopping and get yourself a whole new wardrobe. It’s amazing how quickly the day will pass.
  5. Check into the Ritz Carlton and order room service and champagne all day.
  6. Adopt a Cambodian child. Look where that Angelina Jolie got.
  7. Remember that, sometimes, it’s much more thoughtful and romantic to stalk someone.
  8. Nothing says “I love me” more than a day at the spa. (This is not the time to stinge: go for the full-day package.)
  9. Congratulate yourself on how much money you are saving on chocolates (calories on the hip), roses (they’ll be dead in two days) and expensive dinners (overpriced food).
  10. Get a tattoo. At least you will have a lasting and meaningful memento of the day.
  11. Rent a slasher movie. Nothing kills the mood more than guts and gore.
  12. Think of all the losers you have dated in your life and be grateful that this year, you are free of all that baggage.
  13. Send your ex an SMS informing him that apparently, there is a sex video of him on the internet. Be warmly comforted by the knowledge that he will be super-stressed during his romantic dinner.
  14. Relive your college days: buy a case of booze and knock yourself out.
  15. Make crank calls from a public phone booth to your ex-boyfriend/ girlfriend when you know they will be having a romantic dinner with their new girlfriend/ boyfriend.
  16. Throw a singles’ party. It’s time to celebrate loud and proud that you are free and single.
  17. Station yourself on the ground floor of your office and intercept all deliveries of flowers and anything that remotely looks Valentine’s Day-related. Tell the courier that the office has relocated to Tuas.
  18. Have some plastic surgery. The pain of recovery should take your mind off the fact that you are single.
  19. Crank up the karaoke machine, turn up the volume and sing disco songs all day.
  20. If all else fails, buy a blow-up doll.
