Me and my flat mate, Julie, decided to make a pact with regards Valentines day. This consisted of sleeping the whole entire day and just head into town on the night and drink ourselves to a lonely valentines-less state!haha.
But, please don't get the idea that i am a lonely spinster who does not have a boyfriend (unlike Julie haa joking). My boyfriend is just away with work that's all, so it could not be helped. Glad we have cleared that up...
After realising, however, that our fridge and freezer were completely empty we had to trek into town and go food shopping . As soon as we stepped into the centre of Lincoln we are amongst smug loved up couples and arrays of Valentines day memorabilia everywhere. It was awful, not only did we get heart shaped balloons shoved in our faces we also had to witness the fact that there were couples practically dribbling all over it each other...really was not pleasant not one bit! You could practically see the drool collecting on the pavement like a puddle, i kid you not, some people could have mistaken it for rain.
To make matters worse, me and Julie... well mainly Julie... decided to attend the traffic light party at Wetherspoons. I told Julie it would be practically social suicide, but, off we trotted like two lonely nuns that we where, all the way to Lloyds.
Once we got there it was full of lonely people, like ourselves, wearing stickers to identify their status. Red for taken, Amber for "not sure impress me," and green for single. When asked what colour sticker I wanted, obviously red, I was then told I was a bore! A bore! I couldn't believe it not only was I practically forced to attend this sad event but was then insulted by being called boring.. something might I point out I am not.
The night as a whole was not that bad we met up with some uni mates and had a laugh.
As me and Julie walked back to the flat we made a further pact that next years Valentines Day will be better we will make sure of it. And my oh word, it had better be because i am never, for the life of me, having another Valentines Day like this one.
