ordinary valentine's

For the longest time, my partner and I really do not celebrate valentine's day like most couples do. Not that I don't believe in celebrating love, but I just don't like the idea of giving it so much importance. I would prefer showing your affection to your love ones everyday or somehow make each day special for your family or for that special someone.
Our valentine's day started off with a minor misunderstanding but somehow we managed to straighten things out. My partner and I agreed to go malling in the afternoon and then have dinner, and probably watch a movie. We actually agreed to go to Ayala at 3pm but it took me forever to shower and get ready, so we arrived in Ayala at 4pm. I wanted to purchase a blouse or a sandal but after going into one shop to another and found nothing, I got so frustrated and decided to forget about shopping. Since I was getting hungry, we went to Bigby's for dinner. But when we arrived there, there were a lot of people waiting to get a table. It made me even more frustrated. A few rounds at the Terraces and everything seemed to be packed, but we managed to get a table at Gerry's Grill. I wasn't expecting the food to be great or the service for that matter since the restaurant was so packed, but to my surprise the food was fantastic and the service was excellent!!! We ordered our usual favourite: sizzling sisig, pancit canton and breaded fish fillet. After dinner, we wanted to watch a movie but I was exhausted so we just decided to go home. Our day was nothing really fancy or romantic, it's actually just any other day for us. Everyday is a celebration of love for us and I do appreciate what we have. I guess we really don't have to go those fancy hotels and restos, as long as you are happy and contented. Nothing else would really matter and everything else would be perfect.
