It is officially February 13 in the Philippines and we are simply too excited of two things, Valentines Day and Chinese New Year. These festivities actually fall on the same day, February 14.
We are not full - pledged Chinese but somehow, we join the celebration hype even through simple meals and all. Forsure, we will be having tikoy and I shall ask my mom to cook some Paella. These meals normally mean close family ties.
While the rest of country is having the enthusiasm of this love day, in other conservative countries like UAE, celebration of Valentine's Day is forbidden.
Media and commercial establishments are into different gimmicks just to have this special day worthwhile and romantic for everyone.
Most likely, I shall just have a dinner with family. Happy Love Day everyone!
