see me with flowers

let's talk about flowers. the thing that makes a girl girly or not. eeewwww....
this comes from someone who does not really like flowers. yeah, you heard me right.
i don't detest flowers but i just don't like them. don't give me flowers for any occasion... except when i walk down the aisle which is compulsory to have one. hahahha....not contradicting myself here am i?

an article in the paper yesterday made me wonder why people love receiving flowers? i mean, they are beautiful, and heck, they are expensive (!) but that is all. you plant these beautiful blossoms just to cut them off and let them die in your hands?

i found one personality quiz and what kind of flower would suit you...and the result came out this way:
You are an idealistic person who treasures personal relationships. Emotional and easily swept off your feet, you enjoy surprises and are always eager to explore new opportunities for love. If your needs and desires are met, you are loyal, devoted and faithful. Romantic personalities are often expressive and have a flair for charming others because of their optimistic attitude.


so the above is yours truly, and the flowers that are for me? - bouquets of roses ;(
oh of all flowers! roses!!! no way.


they are definitely not flowers i like. i go for more individual stalks...flowers that can stand alone and yet look beautiful without mixture of other types. i love tulips and lilies...gimme white ones please. they are just so pure, serene and romantic attached to their green stalks. i just love looking at them. therefore going to holland to see the big fields of tulips is one of the trips i want to make soooo much.

i thought i would love the 'sunflower' since i was supposed to love anything with the word 'sun' in it. hahaha...but when i scrolled down the glossary of flowers, the sunflowers just din capture my heart. it is those white stalks instead.

so...so...am i a hypocrite or what? i am contradicting my own statements right? hahahahaha.

p/s: to take that flower personality test, go here. to see the names and pictures of flowers, go here.
