I remember not too long ago, When we had our first Valentine's Dinner. I always look forward to bring Jofanna to a Fancy restaurant, little that I know that something turns to a way that I never expected. It was close to 13 years ago, When I was working as a Sales guy and finance is something I was worry about. I need to sell something in order for me to survive, it's not like a 8 to 5 job where you go home with a salary. I do not have a salary, If I don't sell anything in a day, that means I will probably just skip a meal or two the next day. But this type of job actually allows me to be independent, think out of the box and fully utilise my energy to reach my goal. The harder you work the more you get. I set a goal, I need to treat my Girlfriend(Jofanna) in a fancy restaurant. How did I prepare myself, I go to the restaurant couple of days earlier and dissect the menu, just to have a rough figure on what type of budget I'm suppose to ready. When I get the picture on how much I'm going to spend, I plant that figure and thinking of a way on how to achieve it. Come February 14th, Sitting on a table with a beautiful setup and I Can't remember What We had for dinner. After all the courses, I asked for check. I'm prepared for this and what could go wrong? When the waiter present me with the bill, I was so shocked as If I saw a ghost...literally. Everything was double in price, I swear my jaw drop so low and it's so hard to pick it up. Why Didn't I see that Menu before ordering? Told the waiter to give me a minute and I quickly dash to the nearest ATM . LOL! that's my embarrassing moment from our first Valentine's date. From that moment on, We do not Celebrate Valentine's day on the day itself, but we are celebrating it a day before or a day after. She also said that Bouquet is not necessary. After Working in this field for a decade, If a woman says they Don't like flowers... trust me they're lying. They said that because they probably do not want you to spend more.
So this year I broke the chain, I celebrate Valentine's on the day itself. I got a florist friend of mine to help me fulfill my vision of a Valentine's bouquet. I know Beauty and the Beast is playing again this year, and I know she likes uncommon flowers. I surprised her with this Garden Jar! Dearest Wifey, I hope you like what I envision for you and for the record I can still perform a Surprise act.
More to come.
