BYUH students shared different ways to show love to other people like writing a letter, cooking something or through a video call.

Invite someone to grab their favorite food and eat while watching the sunset.

Keita Sakurai, a junior from Japan majoring in hospitality and tourism management, said, "A great way to make someone feel special is to invite them to order their favorite food and watch the sunset while eating."

Write a letter to someone dear to you and offer them flowers and chocolate.

Mary Eleanor Jorgensen, a sophomore from North Carolina majoring in business management, "For Valentine's Day, I will write a letter to my mom and get her flowers and chocolate because everyone should feel special, not only couples."

Video call someone to share your love and appreciation for them.

Chantica Lange, a freshman from Papa New Guinea majoring in business management, said, "I will call my parents through video call [to tell] them how much I love and appreciate every sacrifice they make for me."

Invite a friend or a family member on a date to the movies.

Kristian Galang, a sophomore from the Philippines majoring in business management, "Not everyone will spend Valentine's Day with a lover, but we can always invite [our friends or family members] on a date to watch a movie and make them feel appreciated."

Cook someone's favorite meal for them.

Alicia Liri, a senior from Tahiti majoring in psychology, said, "For Valentine's Day, I will make my husband his favorite meal from back home, which is boiled chicken with coconut cream mixed with some vegetables."

Invite someone on a walk to watch the sunrise with you.

RV James Vegamora, a freshman from the Philippines majoring in accounting, said, " I want to take my wife on a walk to the sunrise. Since we are both students, our schedule is always busy. Enjoying the sunrise together will help us feel love in the air."
