Happy Valentine's Day!

I must say that Valentine's in Edinburgh is quite different than that in the States, as we have discussed here. In fact- it's worse here.

Valentines at home is very commercial, with aisles at every store devoted to presents and all commercials on TV rambling on about diamonds and what to buy whom. In Edinburgh it's more simple, roses for sale and commercials about romance. In fact, the only commercials we've seen are about tasty teeth (people kissing) and romantic dinners for two.

US valentine's is about spending enough money to show someone you care. Edinburgh valentine's is actually about love. Which sucks for those of us that are without it.

On a good note I've been told by the parents that I'm getting a v-day present... so that's awesome.

My valentine's is consisting of these two things:

That's right. Homemade french bread pizza and Adam Sandler movies. It's gonna be a girl's night in to forget v-day and rest up for another week. Before the relaxation however I need to do more research/studying. Back to the books.
