single girls such as, regrettably, myself, are much more inclined to wishful thinking, such as
1. This VDay, HK will not be a mass dome of smog.
2. Subsequently of 1., HK will improve its usual perfume of pollution.
3. Another cause for 2. is the massive willingness of men to buy flowers on VDay. And I mean enormous bouquets, not like, one flower.
4. Said flowers will be preserved for eternity and will not die the very next day awwwww.
5. People will not kill themselves because they got dumped
6. People will not kill their ex-girlfriends because “if I can’t have her no one else can!” (You have no idea how many pathetic desperate jerks there are in this cute, harmless little city of ours)
7. Love letters will not upset stomachs
8. Love letters will not fall on wrong hands (although this is actually a good thing for those of us who like to laugh at the unfortunately love stricken ones; aka masochists)
9. Burning old love letters as a elaborate celebration will not attract concerned neighbours mistaking the bonfire as a method to conjure the devil, or the investigative police suspecting arson.
10. People who are hideously underprivileged in terms of beauty and/or brains will still be loved by the ones they love.
But oh, the real world is cruel baby, and people who fall under 10. must indeed suffer. Believe me, I know. Flowers must die, ex lovers must be killed, and HK is destined to smell like a combination of sewage and CO2, amongst other things too explicit to be typed.
Nevertheless, just for the sake of doing something on VDay apart from being utterly lonesome, here’s something for those who are in love, unfortunately in love, out of love, or in a fulfillment of all three.
(Yes sign up! It takes around no time. Also, if you want the tracks I can send them to you no problem. Provided you like the list, which you must.)
