Change the trend of Valentine’s Day
The trend for Valentine’s Day consists of brining giant balloons, teddy bears, boxes of chocolates, and going on a movie date followed by dinner. According to Brittany Swakorski , her day is not going to be much different. “Just the usual dinner and maybe a movie.”
“I wanted to do something different,” says Jesse Church, Swakorski’s current boyfriend. “There’s just not many things to do that people don’t do every year,” continues Church “Every year it’s the same cliché stuff,” Which brings up the topic of V-Day being on Friday this year.
Valentine’s Day tends to fall on a weekday, restricting what students do or do not do. “I want to do something better since it’s Friday,” Church says.
Many couples plan on doing something less cliché than every other year, the hard part; finding something that everyone else isn’t doing.
