Day Summary: Since it was Sunday and snowing the whole day, Valerie drove all the way to the supermarket to pick up hot chocolate mix and brownie mix and spent the whole day baking and drinking hot chocolate.
Valerie went to her room after chit-chating with her mother and sat on the edge of her bed. She takes out the white box filled with envelope Tony had given her, and the pink iPod Nano that was stationed on her night stand. She pulled out Envelope Eight, ripping the flap open, taking out the pink index card.
She goes to her iPod Nano and pressed track eight and a song started playing and she read the card
Track Eight: I bet no one made you feel the same way I did
Late nights, New York, trouble on my mind
Crossed town, to the west I'm wasting my time
Down south, back road, dust clouds the air
Chevrolet in the backseat
But it wasn't there
See I missed a flight down at Heathrow
Got stuck up in a one room flat
'Cause she's so fit tryna hold me down while I was just trying to get back.

The name of the song make sense now: I Choose U, Tony chose Valerie out of the one thousand of girls at their school, and 3 thousand girls in their town, and possibly half a million of girls in their state.
Oh my gosh, Valerie have never felt so starstruck over Tony, damn, it's like he cast a spell on her with this playlist, in a good way.
She waited until nine o' clock like Tony said, to call him. Once the green neon numbers on her alarm clock turned to 9:00, she picked up her cell from her nightstand
Tony: Hi
Valerie: Why didn't you show me this much love before?
Tony: Because, I thought I was. I'm starting to see that this playlist made you all . . . gushy.
Valerie: These songs are basically expressing your love for me Tons, it's cute
Tony: You're such a girl, go grieve while watching The Journal
Valerie: Please don't tell me you just called The Notebook 'The Journal' I swear Tony
Tony: You need hearing aids, I said The Notebook
Valerie: That's what I thought, punk
Tony: *chuckles* Shut up, at least I'm just showing my love like Nicholas Sparks
Valerie: At least you got the guy's name right
Tony: If I know you, I'm suppose to know him, love
