Valentines Day. Or for majority of the BYU community…S.A.D.
Singles Awareness Day. This day is always interesting, you walk around campus
in which some girls are proudly displaying their flowers, chocolates, or over
stuffed teddy bears to the world, as if saying “YO singles ladies, look at me!
I AM NOT SINGLE!” Then you have the other side of the spectrum in which they
are spitting on all things male as they walk by, cursing them under their
breath, and speaking with the all to colorful BYU language (flip, frick, crud,
mother teresa,..example: This boy is a fricking flippin crud eating turd
face…stupid, I know). This Valentines
Day for me was unlike every other. Literally I laugh every time I think about
my day. First the day began like
any other: school. Which is getting more and more painful due to the fact my
motivation is lacking, I just want it to be warm and sunny already!! I of
course worked out because it really is like a drug to me, I go crazy if I don’t
run. After the normal humdrum of my day I found myself home, alone. PLEASE
don’t pity me!! Really just wait…it gets SOOO much better! So as I am sitting
on the couch, in the dark (literally in the dark, our light bulb burned out) I
am thinking what do I do?? That’s when I threw on sweats, grabbed my purse and
headed to the store. The store provided a variety of delicious, healthy
options….which I didn’t choose. Nope, I purchased Spicy wings, BBQ Frito
twists, and BYU Chocolate milk (DA BEST!) After fixing myself this horribly
innutritious meal I snuggled up on the couch and watched….wait for it……keep
waiting…..i don’t know if I should admit this…..here it comes….. **Lord of the
Rings**. YES I ADMIT…LORD OF THE RINGS! I thoroughly enjoyed myself and the
choices I made.
Although some may think my Valentines day was lame and
depressing I realized an important fact. Patience. I might not have a
Valentines date this year or the next, I might not have a boyfriends anytime
soon, and I may be eating wings and watching movies by myself for a long time
but I have a lot to be happy about! I have an awesome family, friends, and
life! Although I am not a patient person I think I am content with waiting. As
long as we are doing the right things for us, things will work out. So here I
sit patiently waiting! The suns out today! Go out and enjoy it!
