Valentines Day


I have never liked Valentine’s Day very much. When I was in elementary school, I only went because of the candy. (Now I actually read the things that people write to me because the things that they say matter to me.) It still does not change the way that I feel about Valentines Day. The fact that the whole holiday is focused on love does not appeal to me. In fact, I think it is quite annoying.

There are good things that come out of Valentines Day though. One of them is that you can make cards for your family or send them gifts. It is better when they are there because you can see the reaction of your gift. I like to get up really early and make breakfast for my mom. Then we can make gigantic cards and hang them on her wall before she wakes up.

I love helping my little brothers and sisters with the boxes where they put their valentines. I stayed up until eleven thirty last night because the elementary that my sister goes to is holding a contest for the best looking valentine box. We made a radio/tape player where you can push a button and the tape case opens, and that is where you put the candy. I hope she wins because she will get a king sized Symphony candy bar and she really wants it. These are all of my reasons that Valentines Day is good, but that still does not change my opinion on it. I think I will always dislike it.
