A BRIEF HISTORY

Valentine’s Day or Saint Valentine’s Day is a holiday celebrated on February 14 by many people throughout the world. In the West, it is the traditional day on which lovers express their love for each other by sending Valentine’s cards, presenting flowers, or offering confectionery. The holiday is named after two among the numerous Early Christian martyrs named Valentine. The day became associated with romantic love in the circle of Geoffrey Chaucer in the High Middle Ages, when the tradition of courtly love flourished. The day is most closely associated with the mutual exchange of love notes in the form of “valentines.”

SHOOTING

It’s been my fervent wish to have a Valentines post here on my site. My sister told me there’s a Valentines Fair at Capital Shopping Mall. I went down there with my camera but photo taking was prohibited in the shopping arcade. Gosh!!! I came back with NIL in my memory card. I was a serious Sigh for me. So I came back home and saw this car with wedding decoration. The dummy toys on the front engine cover is really inducing.  That’s the way I have Valentines post with this.

Credits go to my sister, Saw Yu Mon, for the second shot. It’s a valentine gift for her someone special. And she allowed me taking a sip of shot.

May you have a very joyous Valentines…
