errr... ROses?

Heya all! hehehehe.. back here again.. (tho i should be working on my essay.. TT.TT)

anyway.. urgh.. I dunno why, but I've been in my holiday mood since my midsem break.. till now. I've improved bit by bits due to my assgs due soon. but well.. still, been watching youtubes ALOT. *arrrrgh*

but anywayyy.. I was watching "the nanny series" on youtube, titled "the tart with heart", where the main guy said he love the girl and took it back the day after. Then, out of guilt, the guy told his butler to order 2 dozen of red roses, long stemmed for this lady.

and for a while, i thought: "why two dozens?? why not just a dozen? or mebbe one??"
I also asked the same question when i got flowers in certain amount. But the answer I've got was only: "so what? it's ok. rite?"

...

Out of curiousity, i went to google and search for the meaning of roses. and, tadaaaaa.. here we are!! Different amount of flowers have different meaning.. I knew about it, but never really check on it. I just don't understand how people come up with these meanings..

these are interesting.. I can't imagine anyone getting 999 roses. Who would do that anyway??? lol :P But, who knows..

talking about roses, "roses only" is so far the best florist (for roses) that I know.. My sista got roses from there, and they last for quite a long time, and aged gracefully (read: dried nicely.) They still have those color tone, they last long, and the red color doesn't blacken. (like what happened to mine. :()

But, by the way, I gotta stop now.. have to continue my work. *sigh*
Sayonaraaaaaaa.. :D
