boombangbing: (Romeo + Juliet)

So, I've been trawling crappy romantic websites in the search of a title for my new fic, and I came across this:

Valentine's Day Around the Globe: How Other Cultures Celebrate
England. In the UK, couples and non-couples gather together in the name of love and celebrate by giving cards, candy and flowers. However, they do have a unique tradition involving children. Children sing sweet songs in order to get gifts in the form of candy and fruit. Also, single women believe that the first man they see on Valentine's Day morning will be their future husband. It is a great way to keep certain men from walking by a specific house on Valentine's Day and another way of getting certain men to camp out all night.

Wuh? Of which UK do they speak? Because I sure as well never sang 'sweet songs' in order to get crap from people. As far as I'm concerned, Valentine's is kind of a non-event.

Good thing that happened yesterday: I gave my room an overhaul and cleaned out my wardrobe, and I found my Sinfest t-shirt, as well as my 'Hiro could teleport off the Lost island'! *happy face*
Music:: Love Me Or Leave Me - Rooney
Mood:: 'dorky' dorky
