Valentine’s Day. Blah, blah, blah. I really have nothing to say about this holiday other than I’m sure certain people love it. Being stricken with the flu for three days does nothing to brighten a girl’s demeanor, and V-Day has never been high on my list of days to get excited about.
I don’t own a card store. I’ve never dated anyone who’d be pulling diamonds out of his pocket, and it’s always been strange to me that we need certain days to prove we love one another.
Sorry about being a screwup for 364 days, honey. Here’s some chocolates and a bear. Let’s make up.
ANYway, all annoyance aside, I’m aware that there are other opinions about February 14th. Some people love this day. Seriously. Can’t get enough. And other people…?
Well, they use it as an excuse to lie on their bed, stare at the ceiling, eat a box of chocolates all themselves, and go all melancholy about why they have no one.
If you’re one of these, have I got the mix for you.
Below is a list of songs guaranteed to help those tears, and dear god whys?!, flow.
Compromise (be a poet about it) – Edie Carey
Show Me the Meaning of Being Lonely – Backstreet Boys
To The Bone – Deb Talan
Bruised – Ben Folds
I Can’t Make You Love Me – Bonnie Raitt
I Don’t Blame You – Cat Power
Never is A Promise – Fiona Apple
Mad World – Gary Jules
The Heart of the Matter – India Arie (cover)
Nicest Thing – Kate Nash
Irvine – Kelly Clarkson
Walk By – Meiko
You Just Forgot – Mindy Smith
I Wish I Was the Moon – Neko Case
Someone Else’s Tomorrow – Patty Griffin
Empty – Ray LaMontagne
Going to a Town – Rufus Wainwright
Didn’t We Almost Have it All – Whitney Houston
Forever Blue – Chris Isaak
That’s all I dare put down for now. Don’t want to mess your shit up too badly.

and I could go on an on…
But yeah valentine day is over advertised and the media frenzy starts a month before.
anyway what I love in valentine’s day is my friends and I anti-valentine’s party and the message shirts we wear that day, and what is sad is that 90 % of the valentine’s enthusiats don’t even know who st valentine was ??
I think valentines day should be little kid valentines constantly. I hate forced romance dating people valentines, but I love the idea of giving all my friends goofy little cards that have like…barbies or teenage mutant ninja turtles or transformers on them and eating massive amounts of cinnamon hearts. Thats the best.
Sorry- Maria Mena.
it makes me cry… every time!
Ok, after you have listened to those suggestions and are ready to commit suicide, here is a suggestion to brighten your Valentines Day:

Your Winter - Sister Hazel
Such a good one!
Oh god, that Bonnie Raitt song reduces me to fucking PIECES.
Wake up alone by Amy Winehouse is pretty depressing.
And The Moment I said it by Imogen Heap
