The only good happening on this day of evil is the storyline update, along with occasional hugs and kisses.

I say the title for a reason. I've had very bad experiences. Experiences which have opened my eyes to the marketing scandal which is today.

It all started in the third grade...[flashback]

I was a little newblet. I decided I'd fill out the From: portion of the Valentines I'd give out. Bad idea. Everyone else was stupid and in turn returned them back to me, probably without so much as a glance at what they said.

Now it may not seem like a big deal, but it was then.

Fourth grade was worse. The teacher actually lost the bag of Valentines I had to give out. gonk

Then fifth, sixth, seventh, and eight grade came and went. Middle-school was nothing. People buying eachother carnations and so on. It made me sick after the two years of crap that I experienced.

But as always, the worst always comes last.

Ninth grade, freshman year. My parents, being the lovely bunch they are, decided to have my wisdom teeth removed. I wasn't naturally estatic over the decision and wasn't looking forward to it. But then they happened to schedule it on none other than the Friday before Valentines Day.

Friday the 13th.

What's more, I was actually invited to a party that year, and couldn't make it for obvious reasons. gonk

I hate Valentines Day. If nothing good comes before then next year, I'm going all black on it. Just to show my holiday spirit.
