Evy: Valentine's Day

Okay, so all of those boyfriends and girlfriends are looking forward to Valentine's Day because of the love and the presents...and all of us single guys and girls are like, "...the heck with Valentine's Day." We're dreading it for exactly the same reason! But no matter what side you think from, V-Day is all about love, candy, and PINK!!!

I know it's a little late -- V-Day was quite a few days ago, but to help you prepare for next year, here are a few things you can do whether you're all coupled up or just a sad little single:

- YOU DON'T NEED A DATE!
If you're alone this holiday, just hang out with your friends at whatever dance, special event, or hallway strut you have in mind for Valentine's Day :)

- GIRLS LUHV PRESENTS, BTW...
If you're a guy with a girl and you're not sure what to get her, keep in mind these things --
a) girls love presents, but all girls are different. Think of a gift that best fits your holiday honey! Whether it be a necklace (for a girly girl), a chick flick (for a sensitive one), or a bouquet of roses (for a love puppy), make sure you pick the perfect pres.
b) it's all about presentation! Don't just hand her your gift -- actually make an EFFORT! I'm not telling you to ride in on a goldclad trusty steed, but maybe wrap it up nicely, add a card, something sweet or special that will make her proud to be with you. Otherwise...I'll give you a month before she breaks up with you.
c) gifts are important in not only quality, but quantity! Even if your girl loves the more simpler side of life and you're a bit empty in the pockets, one or two gifts at least is best :)

- WHAT TO GET YOUR GUY?!
Sometimes guys don't really want the presies like we do, but again, it matters

who they are. And don't get sobby and sappy and stuff with them -- most guys will get embarrassed, as they aren't as girly as we are, obv! But if you want to be sweet and have them remember this day in particular -- here is a tip for you to use:
a) Personalize your gift, if you give one! If your loved one is a geek or a nerd...algebra book, graphing calculator, math lecture tickets, anyone? If he's a football player and you've got a lot of moolah, a signed football by his favorite football player would be AH-MAZING!!!

All right -- hope you have a good one! See ya!!!
