Then you became a teenager, and suddenly it was uncool to exchange valentines. Well, guess what: It’s never uncool to express love and affection toward others. After all, that’s what Valentine’s Day is all about, isn’t it? So today, get into the spirit of things and show your teachers and classmates a little love and appreciation. A few kind words will do. A valentine note would be even better. Happy Valentine’s Day!
