Hey friend! Will you be my "Valentine"?

Hey guys! One again, it’s been quite long. I’ve just been so busy studying and trying to figure out the purpose of life, that writing a post just skipped my mind! No, I’m kidding. I just didn’t know what to write about…until now.

Lately, I’ve come to the conclusion that relationships these days, especially among teens, tend to be the most hilarious ones ever. (No offense to those high school sweethearts who are married right now!)  The first time someone asked one of my friends out was way back in eighth grade. Regardless of the fact that she didn’t know him well, she said yes. Now comes the funny bit.  After that they didn’t say a word to each other for a week, and when they did happen to cross paths, the first thing they said was, “We should break up.” In her second relationship, the guy stopped talking to her after a week, and when she asked why, he told her “Because my best friend likes you. And I chose my friendship over the relationship. So I’m sorry.” *that stupid bro code* And then she broke up with him. It’s priceless (though extremely sad) that the legacy continues even now.

Another funny thing is how I’ve heard stories from many people about how they wish they were dating just because Valentine’s Day is coming up. It’s like the prospect of staying single leaves them down in the dumps with the Isle of Gloom hovering above their face. And that is ludicrous.  What’s the point of dating just for the heck of it? Just so that you can tell people you spent that day with a “special someone” who actually isn’t quite so special?  Can a human being not have fun without the company of someone of the opposite gender? Definitely they can.

So boys and girls, here are a few things you people can/must do if you are single. You've got ten days to go to plan something "epic". Probably you could stalk your friends when they are on a date and go up to them the next day with a purple ball, which can apparently tell people about the past (instead of the future!) and surprise them with what all you can see inside it about yesterday! Or you could sing sounds at the top of your voice while you are painting your room or the inside of your cupboards. Maybe melting wax crayons and making them stick on top of your paint could create an awesome effect too! You could call a group of friends over, watch a movie and act out your favourite scene with terrible accents and get someone to record it…, play hide and seek in the mall while making sure you don’t get thrown out (That’s my friend’s idea. I think we’ll try it someday) or sit back and relax watching YouTube’s funniest videos. You could do anything actually. Like go on a shopping spree in the morning and play outdoors through dinner time.

So this Valentine’s Day let’s all welcome the status of being single with a huge hug and broad smile on our face. Valentine’s Day is about love. And as Dr. Seuss says, “We are all a little weird and life’s a little weird, and when we find somebody whose weirdness is compatible with ours, we join up with them and fall in mutual weirdness and call it love.” If you don’t have your weird crazy partner yet, wait for the right time. And enjoy every moment till you find him/her!

Single and proud,

Kanksha :)

Hope you guys liked it! Feel free to comment or share! I'd love to know what you're planning. :D
And my dad said that it sounds like I'm preaching. Does it? :/
