My Valentine

Valentine's Day happens to fall on a Saturday this year.
Supposedly a good thing, because it no longer meant squeezing time for dinner at atrociously crowded places after a long day at school.

And to say the truth, I've been so overwhelmingly busy this semester, with my renewed determination to do well, that it only dawned upon me a few days before that I had absolutely zero plans lined up for the day. 
Marco's been so caught up with school work too... so we decided to deviate from our "norm" this time.

I had wanted to mug the day away really. I thought it was a perfect day to catch up with my work while others celebrate the day. (oops, I'm damn competitive!!). And I proposed that we practice "food-court-disation " this year to save money. But Marco refused and insisted we shouldn't mug despite me bringing up that suggestion more than 3 times. haha.

So, no huge surprises. No lavish plans for the day.
Just a simple dinner at Boat Quay (thank goodness our last minute reservation was accepted), and a budget karaoke session to sing our hearts out. 
And practical presents that we needed for school.

I don't really know what got into me really, but I belted out a wide range of children songs that day. 

"Three blind mice, three blind mice... See how they run, see how they run...."

" One little, two little, three little Indians...."

Silly really, but they really made my day!

And dinner was darn good! I hadn't eaten ribs that nice for a long time! And the meal was surprisingly budget for that kind of ambience. Will definitely visit the place again.

I really enjoyed the day actually. I really didn't expect how well the day turned out despite our simple plans.

So here's a huge Thank You, to you, for being such perfect company, because everything turned out perfect :)
