Single on Valentine's Day

So this is the first time that I will be single on Valentine's Day in a very long time. At first this fact was very depressing. But I have come up with some plans to cheer myself up. First, I made my mentor teacher a cake as Valentine's Day is her birthday. I am letting it cool now before I frost it. It is Red Velvet and it is going to have cream cheese frosting. Yum. It will be a great way to surprise her. Next, I made plans to go out to eat in Augusta with Mel and Ernie. The three of us are going to get dressed up and have a wonderful time not caring about Valentine's Day. Then last but not least I decided to not focus on what I am not getting and to focus on what others are not getting. I have these three guy friends at Staples who I know are probably not getting anything for Valentine's Day. The three of us have kind of been having a crappy time in the love department of our lives. I decided to surprise the with a small gift from me. I bought them each a ten dollar gift card to subway, then I wrote them a note from me thanking them for being such awesome friends. I put them in envelopes with their names on them. I am going to leave them for them at Staples tomorrow. The three of them are really good guys and they deserve to be treated better than they have been. I hope that this shows them that at least one girl out there cares. I know I will probably not get anything in return but I don't want anything. I know how crappy it feels to watch all the couples around you celebrate Valentine's Day. I just want to make it a little bit better for them. Besides, who ever said the day had to be just for lovers? Why can't it also be for great friends?
