I have been Bieber-pranked.
My neighbour at work wanted to make my day special. Good ol' Mark.
V day was never celebrated in Mauritius. We never made cards for our teachers or our classmates. It's only in the last few years that the commercialism has reached the tiny island. Yet, I'm fairly sure kindergartens and schools haven't caught up with the way V day is celebrated in North America. This is borderline insane.
I must admit that I wanted to stay home yesterday but the water was being shut off in the building, so I had to go into work. Mark thought and proved that I stayed and worked from home last V day. Okay fine, I do try to hide on that day, only because I did not want people to ask me if I have a date.
Yesterday was good though. Nobody asked about dates or boyfriends or anything, friends wished me a happy v day and told me I looked hot, I brought in red velvet cupcakes to give away to people who have sent me candy grams and nothing dramatic happened. Just a routine day with some extra candy. Now why can't every day be V day??!?!?!
