Valentines Day

It is St Valentines Day tomorrow.

This year I was actually looking forward to Valentines Day – to finally having the chance to exchange cards with the one I loved. Well, since the relationship is over and there is no one else on the horizon then I guess I will not be getting any cards this year either.

That means it will be one more year without a Valentines Card. I did have a girlfriend for a Valentines Day when I was at Uni, but I cannot remember if I even gave her a card. I am sure I would have but I cannot remember it. I guess that memory goes as you get older. Things that are vivid at the time are no longer so memorable. And I did not really keep a diary at that point – I did keep some notes every now and then but no diary.

I was working in the city at the time doing an industrial semester in my Electrical Engineering Course. There is very little from 1994 in my archives. [Well, I did take 8 weeks sick leave a few weeks later thanks to a bad case of Glandular Fever…]

All in all, I think Valentines Day this year might be a bit lonely for me. And hopefully St Valentines Day I will actually be able to exchange cards and gifts with someone.
