Desperation Day - February the 13th

Desperation day is approaching soon..if you haven't heard about this. It's a new holiday which started out in the TV show " How I met your mother"  It's the day before Valentines Day in which singles try to find a partner for themselves before Valentines Day.




February 14 is Valentine's Day, where all the couples are out there having romantic dinner and intimate time with each other. As for some of the singles ladies (and men), they felt the need of going out for a date on Valentine's Day also which is good news for all the single guys out there. ;)

Did you know that there's a chinese holiday called " Chap Goh Mei " in which single ladies skin oranges peel and write their personal information down and throw them in lakes, seas, rivers Etc hoping one day that a guy would pick them up and call them. So basically in China, males go around collecting Orange peels before Valentines Day, sounds desperate enough.

So from my experience and from what I've learned is that single girls freak out about Valentine's Day and they try desperately to get a date. The day before Valentine's day, if you propose a girl she'll accept provided she's single. If she doesn't, I owe you $5.
