- It's Valentine's Day (Jose Cuellar Graphics Editor)
I am tired of the cookies, the chocolate covered strawberries ala Martha Stewart, and the dozens upon dozens of roses. It does not seem romantic at all. The holiday has become a race to determine who gives the biggest and most expensive gift. It is no longer about love but on how we can buy.
