Happy Valentine's Day everyone! I Finland we celebrate Ystävänpäivä and the direct translation is Friend's Day and it's not a huge couples Day here as in other western countries. But here it's also hearts and pink everywhere this time of year.
When I was about 10-15 years, in my small home"town" Kempele we always had huge cardboard hearts hanging from our necks 14.2. and the whole day we'd hug everyone that we saw in the corridors and after the hug we'd write our name or signature to the other person's heart. It didn't matter if you knew the people or not, if you didn't get along with them or not, if they were older or younger students, teachers, janitors...
That was so fun. You had the possibility to hug the cute guys all day also :) And the one you especially liked, maybe "accidentally" twice or more :D
I wish that habit would be in every school in the world, it was always such a spectacular day.
