Valentine's Day

Mood: sleepy
Listening to: 'One Less Lonely Girl' by Justin Bieber (again)
Hungry for: nothin'.

I personally don't like Valentine's Day. I guess the most common term for my attitude is sour grapes. It's true. I hoped I would have spent this Valentine's Day with my (now) ex-boyfriend, but seeing as he dumped me three days after he asked me out (all on msn), this looks like another solitary February the fourteenth.

In truth, I am a diehard romantic. I'm probably the only romantic that doesn't like Valentine's Day. So, I'm gonna talk about something that I haven't talked about in a very long time: boys.

I, like most girls my age, have my own idea of My Perfect Man. It's very idealistic. The bad boy, darker than the stereotype surfer dude, who knows how to have fun but still maintain those cute, old-fashioned things - like walking curbside and opening doors for girls. That kind of guy. No matter what kind of ego bashing all sorts of boys have given me, I still maintain that getting My Perfect Man is not too much to ask of life. In fact, one of my best ways of getting over guys is something along the lines of 'because this hurt so bad the guy I'll one day get will be super, super, perfect.'

Most girls my age who are as ambitious and (dare I say it?) clever as me think themselves above boys, but I don't. IQ aside, I'm just like the other girls when it comes to Valentine's Day - watching rom-coms and playing with my dog and dreaming about getting all of those cheesy tacky things that you see girls get on Valentine's Day - pink balloons and red roses and big heart-shaped boxes of chocolates.

I'm not too proud to admit that.

In my previous post I mentioned that I would love a Valentine to sing 'One Less Lonely Girl' for me on Valentine's Day. Why? Because the lyrics are so sweet. And also because I know it will never happen, because I know boys only do that kind of shit in movies or for money. But here are the lyrics:

One Less Lonely Girl' by Justin Bieber

Alright let's go
There's gonna be one less lonely girl
One less lonely girl
There's gonna be one less lonely girl
One less lonely girl

How many 'I told you'’s and start overs
And shoulders have you cried on before?
How many promises, be honest girl,
How many tears you let hit the floor?
How many bags you packed,
Just to take ‘em back, tell me that,
How many 'either or''s but no more;
If you let me inside of your world,
There'll be the one less lonely girl

Saw so many pretty faces before I saw you,
Now all I see is you,
I'm coming for you
No, no
Don't need these other pretty faces like I need you;
And when you’re mine, in the world,
There's gonna be one less lonely girl.
(I'm coming for you) One less lonely girl,
(I'm coming for you) One less lonely girl,
(I'm coming for you)One less lonely girl,
There's gonna be one less lonely girl (I'm coming for you),
I'm gonna put you first (I'm coming for you),
I'll show you what you're worth (That's what I'm gonna do),
If you let me inside your world,
There’s gonna be one less lonely girl.

Christmas wasn’t merry, 14th of February not one of them spent with you.
How many dinner dates, set dinner plates and
He didn’t even touch his food.
How many torn photographs saw you taping back,
Tell me that couldn’t see an open door,
But no more;
If you let me inside of your world,
There'll be one less lonely girl.

Saw so many pretty faces
Before I saw you you,
Now all I see is you.
I'm coming for you, I'm coming for you.
No, no,
Don't need these other pretty faces like I need you.
And when you’re mine, in this world;
There’s gonna be one less lonely girl.
(I'm coming for you)One less lonely girl,
(I'm coming for you)One less lonely girl,
(I'm coming for you)One less lonely girl,
(There's gonna be) One less lonely girl,
(I'm coming for you) I'm gonna put you first,
(I'm coming for you) I'll show you what you’re worth;
(Thats what I'm gonna do)If you let me inside of your world,
There's gonna be one less lonely girl.

I can fix up your broken heart
I can give you a brand new start
I can make you believe (yeah)
I just wanna set one girl free to fall,
Free to fall (she's free to fall)
Fall in love
With me

Her hearts locked and nowhere to get the key,
I’ll take her and leave the world with one less lonely girl.

There’s gonna be one less lonely girl (one less lonely girl)
One less lonely girl (one less lonely girl)
There’s gonna be one less lonely girl (one less lonely girl)
One less lonely girl
(I'm coming for you)One less lonely girl
(I'm coming for you) One less lonely girl
(I'm coming for you)One less lonely girl
Theres gunna be one less lonely girl (I'm coming for you)
I'm gunna put you first (I'm coming for you)
I'll show you what your worth (That's what I gotta do)
If you let me inside your world
There's gonna be one less lonely girl
