Post-Valentines

Valentines Day for me was a dinner with a friend of mine. Well, it was suppose to be a group of friends. But being Malaysians, particularly Klangians, they managed to ffk me and my friend, leaving the both of us to our so called Valentines date. LoL. While wandering aimlessly along The Curve to find for a restaurant that could actually serve our food fast, we noticed alot of couples. Like Duh~, it's Valentines afterall. But that's not the case, we actually discussed about which couples who look like they can make it and those who wouldn't. Can we really see how far could a couple go based on their actions? Well, I dun think I am capable of telling which couples would make it and which wouldn't. I think that's where girls are better than us guys. Seriously, I bliv a girls sixth sense is better, at least in terms of relationships thou. Sorry gals, we, guys owned you in other matters. :P


Haha, gals, don't over-react to my comment above and start cursing me kay? I am a guy afterall, so bear with it *bluek*. I was wondering, what's so special about Valentines? Why would guys spend so much on his partner just for that day? Wouldn't it be better if you celebrate this special occasion on the anniversary of your relationship instead of on Feb 14th? Personally, I think everyday is a special day if you are with your special one. Plus, Valentines is a reminder of your relationship. Therefore it should be appropriate to celebrate them on your anniversary. Bah.. Afterall this talk, I still feel Valentines is a day for girls to get pampered by their loved ones. How I wish it would be the opposite. Girls will call me for a date, shower me with gifts and cards. Haha.. Dream on LiSeong!

Valentines Day

It's Valentines Day today. Let's get into some history of valentines. February 14 is the traditional day for Valentines. It is a day where lovers express their love for each other. Although it is celebrated as a lover's holiday today, it originated in the 5th Century Rome as a tribute to St. Valentine, a Catholic bishop.
For 800 years prior to the establishment of Valentine's Day, the Romans practiced a pagan celebration in mid-February commemorating young men's rite of passage to the god Lupercus. The celebration featured a lottery in which young men would draw the names of teenage girls from a box. The girl assigned to each young man in that manner would be his sexual companion during the remaining year. (Dun wtfbbq why am I not born then?)
Then came Pope Gelasius. In an effort to do away with the pagan festival, he ordered a slight change in the lottery. Instead of the names of young women, the box would contain the names of saints. Of coz, the rules had changed too. The game was to emulate the ways of the saint they drew during the rest of the year. Needless to say, many young Roman men were not too pleased with the changes. (If I'm a Roman man, I will go knnccbwtfbbq. It's obvious rite, unless there are many porkchops during that time which I seriously doubt so. Oops, no harm being done here!)
The Church then looked for a suitable patron saint of love to take his place. That's where they found Valentine, whom later was beheaded by Emporer Claudius. Claudies had determined that married men made poor soldiers. Therefore he banned marriage from his empire. However, this Valentine guy would secretly marry young men that came to him. When Claudius found out about this he jailed Valentine. During the days in prison, Valentine fell in love with the blind daughter of his jailer. It is said that his great love for her managed to miraciously heal her from blindness before his death. Before he was taken to death, he signed a farewell message to her, "From your Valentine." That's the phrase that has been used up till now.
Do you know that:-
  • During Valentine's Day in Japan and Korea, women give candy, flowers and chocolates to all their male co-workers. (Hey, we Msian shud go towards this way too)
  • In Korea, males who did not receive anything for Valentine's Day gather to celebrate Black Day on April 14th. They are suppose to eat Jajangmyun(Chinese-style noodles in black sauce).
  • In Chinese culture, Valentines Day is known as "The Night of Sevens". It falls on the 7th day of the 7th month of the Lunar calender.
  • In Iran, this date is discreetly celebrated by most lovers despite the disaproval of such occasion by their Islamic govt. (They say it's a copycat of the West)
  • In Finland, Valentine's Day is called a Friend's Day. This day is more about remembering friends than your loved ones.
Happy Valentine's Day to couples out there. To those singles, Happy Black Day :P
P.S : I'm still single, anybody wanna date me?

Laughter, the best medicine?

Laughter is said to be the best medicine. I guess it's just true. Studies shows that laughter is linked with the activation of the ventromedial prefrontal cortex (dun ask me whr i got this from, I did do some research 1st k), which produces endorphins after a rewarding activity. Yes, a rewarding activity as in after having a good meal, after you understand a joke and after you have sexual intercourse.
Studies have shown that laughing helps protect the heart. Psychologist Steve Sultanoff, Ph.D., who is the president of the American Association for Therapeutic Humor, gave this explanation:
"With deep, heartfelt laughter, it appears that serum cortisol, which is a hormone that is secreted when we’re under stress, is decreased. So when you’re having a stress reaction, if you laugh, apparently the cortisol that has been released during the stress reaction is reduced."

Studies around the world has also shown that laughter lowers one's blood sugar after a meal, improves blood flow in the body and improves our body immune response. Therefore, let's start laughing from today onwards. Cheerios my frens !
Here is an article that I found amusing during my chat with a friend. Do laugh and leave a comment if you found it funny. Have a good day :)
