It's worse in highschool... we used to have this little box in the school office for Valentines day notes. You could write your crush/boyfriend/girlfriend a little letter, and then put it in the box with their name and form class on the front. Then on Valentines day at form time, someone came round and handed them all out. It was always the so-called "popular" people who seemed to get flooded with notes, while the rest of us just stared with envy. I got a letter, once. But it was just my idiotic friends that had written it - pretending they were the guy i liked... grrr. Although, it was sooo cheesy it was kinda funny. Another year, i was at a party on Valentines day... and i got talking to a guy in our group of friends. As the evening went on, i was more and more intrigued by him. I decided i liked him... then two days later he asked out one of my best friends... *sigh* The most tragic V-day of all was last year. I met this really cute guy while buying some sunglasses off him. He reminded me of Steve Poltz *grin*, but much younger, and far more sober - lol. I spent over an hour in the store, practically trying on every pair of sunnies they had till i found the perfect pair. The guy helped me the whole time, suggesting different pairs, and laughing with me when yet another pair looked hideous on me. I didn't do anything about it at the time, because i'm really shy... but i later decided to send him a Valentines Day card. I was working on Feb 14th, so i gave my friend a description of the guy and asked her to deliver the card. It turns out the guy wasn't working that day. So i motored it down to the sunglasses store on my lunch break and asked about him. I didn't actually know the cute guys name, so i had to describe him to the other staff member there. He looked at me and said "um...well, that could be Chris or Ben, can you describe him more?" ... and after much discussion, we figured out the one i wanted was Chris. So i asked the guy to hold the card there for Chris. The guy looked really uncomfortable, and said with reluctance "oh... well, sorry to tell you this, but Chris just moved to Auckland.." (another city miles away). Argh! Gutted... So yeah... i'm rather anti-valentines day! This Feb 14th, me and my three single girlfriends are gonna all go out to dinner together. Who needs men?

I'm giving candy out to my friends, like in Halloween. If you don't have anyone to spend it with this year, hell, what about spending time with yourself? It could be fun, right? Cause I have fun with myself all the time, even if I'm just thinking about something. ===== ~*Liz*~ the Misplaced Angel HARMLESS & SHAMELESS PLUGS (if you can, check 'em out!)

My B-day is today actually, so even if I'm not dating anyone it's always a "positive" time of year. We celebrate it just among our family. We give presents and candy, my grandmother especially loves it. (Personally I just think it's because she gets to eat as much chocolate as she wants! lol) Anyway, I just thought I'd try to throw a little cheer into this depressing conversation! Don't think about the being single part....just think of it as a day to remember that there are people in you life who love you and celebrate all the goodness in your life and your heart........there's always SOMETHING to be thankful for! Even if it's just that you had enough gas to get to work!

I agree.. 'tis good to tell the ones you love everyday. However, I see Valentine's Day as a day to celebrate our love for eachother.

It is pathetic that our society needs 2 days a year to be "romantic." If you really care about someone, then a little spontaneous romance is just the thing to brighten up life. In my case, I try to surprise my wife with dinner or send her an iCard on apple.com once in a while. Doesn't really cost much, but she loves it.

I really like to hear great songs from her accoustic archive like Break me, Stephenville, Rosy and Mick and beautiful others like Does anybody believe in love and So close to heaven. I hope Jewel will also write some cool other tracks which will please her fans. No matter what songs on the record will be Jewel takes care about her fans... I hope to listen to the record sooner than we should expected to be ..so give me a good summer and a world tour in the FALL.... Nobody updated us about song and tracktitles...i would hoped to have seen new merchandise in the Jewel store soon as well. I still think a nice photobook with great photos from Jewel's life would be great. Just to feel the momentum Jewel has already overcome.

We don't know anything about it yet. I think the only way an album would come out earlier than fall would be to use older material. I love the old stuff, and still hope for a live album, but right now I'd rather hear new songs. New merchandise probably won't come until a tour, although new survey was about t-shirt designs, so you may be in luck. As for the actual songs on the album, we can't get an update until everything is set. Since we've been told that Jewel would BEGIN planning her new album in early 2001, the track list is also likely to be in the planning stage. So be patient. We've waited this long, what's a few more months? - -Kerri - ----- Original Message ----- From: "michiel van gorkum" To: Sent: Monday, February 12, 2001 4:16 PM Subject: [EDA] Stop Valantine disscusion - let's start Jewel's demo tape record session > hello Jewelfans, > > I like to read all about your valentines opinions but isn't it much more of > our interest to discuss about Jewel's fourth record which hopefully will be > released somehow sooner than the Fall.

I was involved with someone but we were going to break up just before valentine's day (it wasn't planned, but just before we made a short break and were having some time to think about our relationship, which was kinda bad at the moment... so we kind of saw it coming) and so the week-end before valentine's day (valentine's day was a Monday) was kind of the time we were going to decide if we were going to continue together or not... my decision was no, and I also knew her decision was no... but I didn't want to hurt her feelings by saying NO to the relationship in case she wanted to give it a second chance... so it all became SO ackward because she also felt the same (she told me so later). Communication was a little difficult because I was in a small town at the beach and she was in the city, so we weren't together and I couldn't speak to her by phone as easily as I could in the city and, every time I called her she wasn't home... SO... it was Sunday and we were still together, hold by the fact we couldn't speak to each other and end the relationship... and Valentine's Day was approaching and I kept thinking 'Oh God, it would be so sad & cruel if we ended up in Valentine's Day'... so, Valentine's Day came and I still couldn't talk to her... It was so strange, I felt so uneased that day, kinda numb but also kinda sad... Until my cousin (with whom I stayed at the beach) told me to go and ride in the motor boat... so anyway we went with my uncle and it was great and really fun and it made me feel good being with them... This made me realise not to regret myself for not being with the person I was supposed to be (my 'girlfriend') but didn't want to, and that Valentine's Day is also the day of love to friends and family, which is also so important... and a good excuse to remind us to show it, if we are too busy to do it... ...So enjoy Valentine's even though you are not romantically involved... call a friend, spend it with your parents, brothers, sisters, grandparents, pets, etc, etc, I'm sure you can find someone you love and who feels the same way about you... ...I'm going to spend Valentine's Day dancing with my friends... we're going to a disco... ...About my girlfriend, we broke up the day after Valentine's Day... how depressing... But anyway, everything has its positive side... Mirko *angel from Peru* Get personalized email addresses from Yahoo!
