It’s only a few days to go before Valentine’s Day! Of course, we all know this is the day where couples go for a date in fancy restaurants, flowers and chocolates in hand, and then smooch each other on the different parts of their bodies later. E pano naman yung mga single? Yung mga sawi sa pag-ibig, yung mga NBSB? Syempre, there are still ways to enjoy Valentine’s day even if you’re single. Here are some of the things that you can do on Feb 14:
1. Schedule a date with your friends - Pag ganitong panahon, common talaga na maka-ramdam ng loneliness ang mga single. Sya nga naman, sa paligid mo puro mga couples, kesong-keso ang saya, makikita mo holding hands pa. Samantalang ikaw, walang kasama. Why not go and hang out with your friends? You can have a testosterone-filled videogame marathon with your buddies, or you can do a pajama party with your kumares. You can also be a jumping jolog with your friends and join a mosh pit at the UP Fair. Pwede rin namang isang simpleng inuman at walwalan lang sa apartment ng isang kaibigan. The idea here is to forget all the cheese and mushyness in the air and remember that you’re not really lonely, you have your friends. Lalu na kung sawing-sawi ka sa pag-ibig? Alak plus some very good company will make you forget your bitterness. You might suffer from a severe hangover tomorrow, but at least, you had a helluva good time with your friends.
2. Be very busy - Merong asayment? Gawin mo na kaagad. Have a project that needs to be finished? Work overtime at the office. Meron kang hobbies? Hone your skills on your craft, if needed. Gaya ng sa nasa taas, forgetting it’s Valentine’s day is your goal here, so if you can’t have a date with your friends, then just immerse yourself in other activities. Be single-minded in the pursuit of perfection, love and relationships can wait. At the end of the day, you’ll get a sense of accomplishment sa mga natapos mo sa buong araw. I’m sure that beats getting depressed and feeling intense hatred towards couples at sa kung sino mang hinayupak na naka-imbento ng Balentayms na yan (leche). Pagdating mo sa bahay, lalagpak ka na lang sa kama mo sa pagod. Just avoid social media para di ka makalanghap ng amoy ng Valentine’s.
3. Spend some time with yourself – and learn to enjoy it. Sabi nga ng isa kong kaibigan, if you don’t enjoy spending time with yourself, how can you expect others to do the same? I think V-day is the perfect occasion to mull on those words and learn how to really enjoy your alone time (and no, I’m not talking about masturbation, though.. pwede rin ano? hehe). Why not treat yourself to a day at the spa? Or do a movie marathon while indulging on irresponsible amounts of ice cream all day? You can still enjoy Valentine’s Day like any other person out there, but believe it or not, you don’t actually need friends to appreciate a tub of ice cream (wala ka pang kaagaw, diba?). All you need is to know yourself, do what you really like, and, you know, enjoy it.
4. Treat it like a normal day – Wake up early, go to school/work, do your thing, then go home. It’s not going to be easy, not with your social media bursting with V-day postings from your friends, ta’s sandamakmak pa yung mga bulaklak sa bangketa.. But you can ignore these things. Just think about all the other things in your life. Nagawa ko ba nang maayos yung trabaho ko? Did I turn in the correct homework? Pano na kaya yung mga nasalanta sa Tacloban? Sisikat kaya si Deniece? Before you know it, it’s already time to go to bed. Go and cuddle your teddy bear if you really feel lonely.
So there you have it. Andami-dami pang iba dyan na pwedeng gawin sa Feb 14. Meron pa ngang mga honorable mentions e:
- Spend time with your family – isama mo na dyan ang family dog. and cat.
- Go shopping - and buy things that can make you feel good. Like, financially irresponsible amounts of them. Damit man yan o mga laruan, go treat yourself with something nice.
- Get rid of those flabs in the gym – sa dami ng mga tao sa mga restaurants, malls, at motels, malamang-lamang walang masyadong tao sa gym, solong-solo mo ang mga equipment dun
- Bar-hopping - malay mo, makakuha ka pa ng ka-Valentine mo dun, just for one night!
- Join a speed dating event - May pag-asa pa! Marami nyan pag Valentine’s Day. Malay mo, dun mo pala makita ang future jowa mo.
You see? It’s just another day, people shouldn’t get too upset about it. You have all the excuses in the world to be happy, you don’t need a significant other to enjoy Valentine’s day. Papahirapan mo lang sarili mo kung magmumukmok ka lang sa isang corner dyan. It’s just 24 hours, it will all be over soon. Diba?
