St. Valentine...
Yes, the day where you see girls/ladies holding on to (big) bouquets of flowers ranging from lilies to roses on the streets. Youngsters peddling stalks of roses to guys walking arm in arm with the lady loves etc.
A lovey dovey day that has gotten too commercialised (in the words of many). Restuarants start pushing out their romantic (and ex) candle-lit dinners, overpriced flowers double to quad-tripling in prices, chocs vendors etc luffing all the way to bank.
Isn't everydae supposed to be St. Valentines day????
Well, it's hard to admit but girls being girls, ladies being ladies, we may hardened ourselves to the visuals of blissful fellow female friends and colleagues receiving romantic gifts from the other half and vehemently deny we are red-eyed but deep within us we do wish our other half will remember to shower us (not necessary material) gifts like giving us more attention on this special day.
Hence, although I am not a flower person, I do like to share with all my frens (excluding my bf who should know this already) on the 2 (only) types of flowers I love (though not exactly what I will like to receive coz I think they are too ex and cut-throat sold on V day!).
The bright cheery Sunflower
I think it's darn lovely and brightens up any damper mood any day and time with its fresh sunny yellow petals and big fuzzy choc brown centre. A field of sunflowers is like a field of happy rays :)
The elegant champagne rose
Now, this pic is not as lovely as seeing this pretty rose in real. I think the champagne coloured rosies are darn pretty (yes, even much so than the conventional red and pink ones). They will look lovely for weddings *dreaming*
What's your fave flower/s?
And dear, dun worrie. I am not hinting to you to buy me flowers.
