Preparing for Heart Day... Be my Valentine? (CLOSED)
To make up for my absence during the December holidays, I decided that I wanted to make up for my lack of cards and gift-giving by sending out something for the next holiday: Heart Day!
I have to be honest. I'm not really one to celebrate something like Valentine's Day. Even Shawn and I don't go out of our way to get each other extravagent gifts. My feeling on the subject is that if you care about someone, you'll show him/her that type of love all year 'round. With that said, I have to be a hypocrite and change my beliefs around this year.
I feel like I missed out on a lot of the holiday fun. Everything seemed a bit dull this year because of all the work I was wrapped up in-- no fun! To spice up my life and the Vox atmosphere a bit, I'd like to offer a little Valentine to anyone that reads this post. ^__^ I've even stocked up on a ton of kawaii cards for my friends this year, which is something I haven't done in many years.
This invitation is open to everyone, whether you're in my Vox neighborhood or you aren't, whether we know each other or not. I think that Heart Day is a great time to get to know both old and new friends.
If you're interested in having a pretty Valentine sent to you within the next few weeks, you need to do two things:
-
Leave me a comment in this post and let me know you're interested. (Depending on emails alone in the past has proven to be troublesome, so an extra note in a comment always helps!)
-
Send me an email (milkeyes@gmail.com) and provide the following:
Your Vox Name:
Your Real Name (first and last):
Your Address:
Once I have this information, I can go ahead and send you a fun Valentine. (I'm still trying to think of a little gift I could send along with each letter. Hopefully, I can think something up before Heart Day gets here.)
If you're not interested in having a letter sent to you, it's no problem. ^^ Just know that I wish you a happy Heart Day 2008. Try to remember that Heart Day isn't about being in a relationship or being part of a couple; it's about loving yourself and those around you. Heart Day is about brilliant independence just as much as it's about sharing your time with a loved one. That's what I've learned throughout the years.
Anyway, I hope to hear from some of you Voxers. I'd love to spread a lot of love around this time of the year-- as much as possible! ^0^

I'm also making Valentine's this year. We are having an old-fashioned Valentine exchange at work (complete with a name list and a shoe box to decorate). I decided instead of buying cards, I'd rather make my own, so I've just stocked up on lots of pretty paper, ribbon, stickers, etc. I'd love to send you one as well if you wouldn't mind replying with your address. =) *hugs*
hope you and Shawn have a great one too.
^-^
I'll reply to your emails soon, too. Thankies again!
happy heart day to you and yours. :D
email to follow...
Yay for valentines! I'd love one, I'll send you an email right away. :)

<3
My Address is coming....
my first vox crush :)
awww. i totally want a valentine!!
you should also check out my most recent post - #50 to be exact. *hint hint!*
i totally meant to say #100 (the one about my little ponies) - NOT 50.
i just realized what 50 was referring to, and it made me laugh. sorry!!!
Seriously, whew... *laughs*
[this is Love] i like your idea on valentine's! you are right we should Love our friends all year long..i dig and heart this post!! freaking awsome..
i know! haha. i realized my list was up to 100 and the MLP i was referring to was the last one...i don't know why the hell i thought it was number 50.
i was like, i should check what 50 is. and when i read it, i was laughing SO hard. haha. tmi...lol
I'm interested!!! * * * :)
You are always such a sweetheart, and I hope you and Shawn get some quality time together. Also I love this “Kawaii's Hammy Yukimo” such a cute little application I could play with it for hours…. good luck on your Valentines Day good wishes!
Hey Lauren, You’re so sweet! I’m interested of course! But can we exchange?
I’m a thousand miles away from you and I’d feel guilty if I don’t give you back, and we also have same thought about Heart Day so we should share!
Will send you an email *hugs* ;-)
oh, such a lovely idea! it´s always so sweet of you to think about all us fellow Voxers. Hope you´ll get lots of love back! <3
If I have to send you my address, I'm kicking you in the shin! .. haha.
And no kicking is needed, hahaha. I have your address x 10. =D
Heart Day will be fun this year!
To those of you who have asked for my address so they can send me a little something in return, I'll be able to give you one very soon. I've been working towards getting my very own P.O. box in the near future. For years now, I've been depending on my mom to collect my personal mail for me at my parents' house because of the poor mailing system that my area has. It's about time that I get a little more independent! Once I get my own address (hopefully within the next couple of days), I'll give it out to those that have asked for it.
Thankies for everyone's participation so far! Heart day rocks this year. <3
ah! this idea is so cute!
i would have volunteered myself for a card, but i feel bad for not having gotten you something last christmas after having received something from you. woe!
If you decide to reconsider, send me over an email with your info. I'd be happy to send you a card. They're all very small cards... but they're extremely cute!
u r so thoughtful~ so nice of u!
i would love to hv your v day card, pls send me one too! ^^
I hope you and Shawn have a GREAT Valentine's day, full of sweet things, hugs and happy times! <3
You rock! <3
<3 Thankies, everyone.
For everyone who's single, I think that they should be happy with who they are already. Why make it life's goal to be in a relationship? Too much of life is wasted with that type of mindset.
Anyway, enough rambling from me! I got your info... and until then, happy Heart Day. ^__~
I'd love to get a card from you, Lauren. Will email you my info.
I always have a 'me' day on Valentine's Day. I go to the cinema or have a massive takeaway followed by a pampering session. Brilliant fun.
I got your info down, Liz!
And just to let everyone know, I'll be making a post with an update on how the Heart Day cards progress is moving along within the next few days. There have been some delays because of the horrible weather we've been having in Wisconsin these past few weeks.
Another update to come soon!
Thankies to everyone who participated in my special Kawaii at Vox Heart Day event! I was so surprised to see how many people wanted Valentines. ^__^ I could definitely feel the love, so yays!
I'll be giving an update on the whole process within a day or two, and I'll also be sending out my address to those who asked for it in their emails to me.
Much love to all of you who I wrote a Valentine for-- and to those who just wanted to say happy Heart Day. ^o^ + <3
