happy Valentine's Day happy day of love
you might not be surprised to know that
Valentine's Day is indeed is celebrated
in Japan but what you might not know is
that it just isn't the same you see on
February 14th Valentine's Day is a day
for girls to give chocolate to boys but
it's not even that simple it gets a
little more complicated
there's tomo choco and tomo choco is
short for too much eat chocolate though
basically you give chocolate to your
friends there's Jack gu choco which is
something that I guess is kind of more
recent gaku choco is where boys buy
chocolate for girls and deca means like
opposite so it's like opposite chocolate
and this they would never have this in
the north in the North America in Japan
when a boy gives a girl chocolate on
Valentine's Day it's called gaku choco
because that's not what people are
supposed to do and then finally there's
edy chuckling you need chuckles like
obligatory chocolate chocolate that you
give people out of obligation this could
be co-workers or teachers or family
people that you give chocolate to
because you're kind of expected to and
then do I have an issue with giddy choco
let me tell you my story now some of you
might recall if you saw my video last
year on Valentine's Day I challenged
myself to make dico chuckle which is
decoration chocolate it's kind of a
thing that that girls do here they
decorate or they bake things I admit I
didn't make like the prettiest looking
chocolate but I tried really really hard
the nature of giddy choco is like if
you're a girl and you work in a work
place with lots of boys you're kind of
obligated to give them chocolate and I
understand that so that's how the
culture works but
my boyfriend comes home with a ton of
beautiful pretty wrapped expensive
Godiva chocolates and he was like can
you believe I got these could I have a
chocolates at work do you know how
expensive these are these are great
chocolates you know I actually uh I
actually um I forgot it was Valentine's
Day today yeah I forgot and you know
what tomorrow the chocolates probably
gonna be half-price because it's not
Valentine's anymore and I'm gonna buy
you like so much so this year I didn't
do the decoration chocolate thing I
didn't make anything but I am determined
to win the secret competition that I'm
sure these girls have no idea that they
are in I went to the department store
and I searched for like three hours on
it back and forth looking at all this
amazing chocolate before I finally
decided on a cake so I bet nobody that
works gonna get him a cake it's actually
like the most beautiful cake ever and he
was probably gonna cry when he sees it
it's a strawberry mousse cheesecake I am
so excited to eat these tonight you you
guys don't even you don't even you can't
even you don't you know you don't you
can't I'm so excited I'm so excited I'm
so excited how will you spend your
Valentine's Day are you going to give
chocolate your friends your mom your
secret crush or are you just gonna stay
at home alone be sure to leave a comment
and let me know anyway feeling good
today I'm totally gonna
it's less season of love that's my
French accent that's how French people
would say it probably
