Valentine’s disaster for many
February 13, 2020
A majority of Morton East High School students surveyed say that Valentine’s Day has been a disappointment.
For most, not all Valentine’s has been a day for love and happiness. Valentine’s Day is a way to show their partners or loved ones that they are special. However, for the other few Valentine’s has been a day misery and heartbreak. Morton East, for example, students and staff have gone through both events. In a random survey of 210, Morton East students and staff 70% reported that they have been dumped on Valentines.
“ I spent valentines with my girlfriend and we had a wonderful time watching movies and eating pizza,” says senior Josh Sanchez.
Whereas others spend Valentines enjoying it with another, some people aren’t so fortunate.
“ I was planning a surprise for my girlfriend when I got a call saying that she was cheating on me,” says senior student Victor Ramos.
Though, at the end of the day, Valentine’s is a day of love and appreciation.
“ I always get a Valentine’s gift from my mom and I try to surprise her with a gift to show her that I also care,” said sophomore Jance Méndez.

I would really like for you to verify your survey. It seems totally unlikely that you surveyed 210 people and that 147 of them said that they were dumped on Valentine’s Day. Are you sure you got the numbers/calculations correct? You realize that lying in journalism is paramount to cheating, right?

An error I found was that there was an extra word after the period, so make sure to delete that “as”. “Whereas others spend Valentines enjoying it with another, some people aren’t so fortunate. As.”
