Love is in the air...

I have seen that those of you who have added me on the MSN have love messages on your nickname... so here's your new topic:

-How are you going to celebrate or how have you celebrated Saint Valentine's Day?
-Which is the most romantic gift or surprise you have ever had on this day?

-Do you think it is a nice day to celebrate love or just another way of making people spend money at shopping centres?

I hope you have a LOVEly weekend or as LOVEly as possible...

  1. I'm not celebrating Saint Valentine's Day because I'm Valencian and in my country we have our own Lovers' Day: 9th October, when men who are in love give to their beloved ones a neckerchief which contains marzipans in the shape of some fruits and fireworks stuff.

    Besides, I've never had any gift, neither for Valentine's Day nor for 9th October, so I'm not able to tell you which has been the most romantic!
    In closing, I think that there's no need for being on 14th February if you want to celebrate you're in love, I am one of those who think that everyday can be a good one to surprise your beloved.
    As far as I am concerned, I'm going to spend this Saturday with my first love: my clarinet. And I'm also reading Tirant lo Blanc, whose main character is the best lover this world has ever had, much better than Romeo...
    "-Madam, the image which you'll see [in a mirror] can give me my death or my life. Order her to be compassionate with me.
    The Princess took quickly the mirror and went to her bedroom thinking she would find a woman painted in it, but she didn't see anything apart from her face. Then she realised that all that fuss was because of her and she became very amazed about how, without talking, love could be declared to a lady."

  2. Hi!
    I think that san valentine's day is an invention from the companies to earn money.

    I agree with Mònica, in València san valentine's day is 9th of october but this capitalist and included world makes belive to us that san valentine's day is 12 of february.

    In my opinion lovers' day are all the days and inventions like san valentine's day the only things that they do is became love in a materialistic thing.

  3. Have you noticed Aspas is so immersed in an anti-capitalist love that she's forgotten the correct date of Saint Valentine's Day? xD

  5. Well..Normally I've always done something on Saint Valentine's Day...
    But this year, as one of our friends died on thursday, we didn't go anywhere.
    We only had dinner in Carcaixent, and then we went back home.

    And the most romantinc gift that someone has given me..
    Hmmm..
    Well, it was on my birthday last year, my boyfriend told me he didnt have a lot of money, so he was only taking me out for dinner, but he wouldn't buy me anything. I didn't care..
    But then, when we were finishing dinner, the waiter came to our table with flowers and a present..
    It was a surprise... :]
    (awwwwwwwwwwwwwww!!) Lol.

  6. I don't have much to say about St. Valentine's day. Personally, I prefer to take care of a relationship everyday and receive (and give) little surprises when you don't expect them.

    By the way, why have you erased the gold Juliet post? It was a really curious story.

  8. Hi Joseph and thanks for your question...In a few days I am starting a Post for people to ask interesting questions like this one, and I will put your post there.

    The Origin goes back to 1919
    The T-shirt got its start as an item of men's underwear and got its name because when spread flat(Spa:extendida) it formed a stubby (Spa:gruesa)letter T. Its little sleeves and round collar distinguished the T-shirt from the standard sleeveless (Spa:sin mangas) undershirt of the day. The sleeves may also have helped bring the T-shirt out in the 1930s and 1940s, since (Spa: ya que) they offered a gesture towards modesty as well as a place for a pack of cigarettes.
