Roses, Chocolates and a Card

I was kind of irritated seeing so many people carrying bouquets of flowers on my way to office (you know how I am such a sucker for flowers!!!). I was kind of wondering what if I will see something on my desk (has not experienced surprises on my work desk before) and as soon as I arrived at my workspace, I did notice something… a card and a pack of chocolates. It was from one of my closest guy officemates.

From that time on, I knew it was a good day after all.

Later that afternoon, while we were expecting a merienda treat from the February bday celebrators in office, the unexpected happened –
All the guys lined up and “serenaded” all the girls from the team. Their acoustic renditions of some love songs (Love Always Finds a Way, Beautiful Girl, etc) was enough to consider them sweet and very very thoughtful indeed. But they didn’t stop there – each one of the guys went over to a girl and gave her a flower.

One of my best buds in office gave me his rose, we took a picture and then the process continued until everyone is done.

It was indeed a very good day.

When I went back to my desk, I received an email from another guy officemate whom I haven't met personally, greeting me a Happy Heart’s Day. I thought it was sent wrongly but later confirmed it wasn’t and it was really for me. And that is how I met a new friend on Valentine’s Day.

Still a good day.

Another friend – upon realizing I had no date for the day – gave me free tickets to the premier of Aeon Flux (which by the way is an okay movie). So for the night, I had another single girl friend (my “baby sis”) for a date to a free movie.

Night is good so far.

My parents told me to go home early that night since they knew I hadn’t a date, but still, 10 PM, when I reached home, went to my room and discovered a cute bouquet of roses by my bed. It was from my brother… Aawwww. How sweet. : )

I felt that that day was complete. With real friends, and your family with you, any day will be special. : )

Valentine’s Day is DEFINITELY for everyone!

P.S.

The next day, all the girls from the team gave pastries in heart boxes to the guys in exchange for their thoughfulness on Valentine’s day.

Secret

It’s a secret how I manage to seem confused when I really am sure of which one I would choose, the real question however is when will I be given the opportunity to make the choice. My choice – secret.

It’s a secret what I did in my 9 day long vacation. Well, at least (not all) my office mates know. This is what happens when you get all tangled up with office rumors and you just end up wanting to disappear for a while just to give yourself some space.

It’s a secret - my true feelings most of the time. I get kind of too cautious with trusting people nowadays. There’s a very thin line between real friends and “dynamite fishers.” Better be sure than sorry.
