lucian- Like the other person said, I think things will change eventually, the world can't remain forever.
Not much else to add. Noticed you were talking about Valentines before. Not really doing anything for that day, infact to me it's just another day so it doesn't really matter to me. Although on the 17th the guys from the church are having, in the planner's words "Single guys valentines sheesh or something" and I am going to tag along, not really a Valentine thing since it's afterwards but well I don't really hang with just guys, usually there is a girl or a few around.
And even then I find myself talking to the girl/s more, I guess it's just easier to talk to them I suppose, but it would be good to hang out with just the guys, never really done it (Except the night before my brother's wedding where his best man and groomsmen slept over to go to the wedding the next day)
