Tis the season to wed
Just attended Paul's wedding about 2 weeks back and Jen's just 2 days ago. Also just heard a cousin of mine (who is 1 yr younger than me) just ROM.
Here's the pic of all the gals + the beautiful bride - Jen!

All my relatives are asking my parents (and me) if i even have a bf. Hahaha .... i used to think its pressurizing, but now i got immuned to it. Of course, hearing all my friends' wonderful stories about how their boyfriends proposed, about their diamond ring stories, about house viewing/purchase/renovations, wedding solemnisation and wedding dinner plans, photoshoots and gowns.....yes i am envious and sometimes awkward becos as my frens are stepping on to the next relam of their lives, here i am stucked behind .... as my biological clock ticks, and as pressure sets in from people around me, and together with my wonderful imaginations of my fairy-tale like future, of course i do have mixed feelings hearing all these .... on one hand happy for my pals, but the other sulking abt my own life =p.
However, when i seriously think abt it. Though my dream age to get married when i was a kid was about 25 (later 26, then 27, then 28 and now i don't dare to think!), i realised its not the age that matters. Its what the society and environment set as a standard and a norm. We should not live our lives based on what is being placed upon us! I mean getting married is a life-changing experience and its a very important decision. Yes, i do long for the companionship but i'm not sure i'm ready for all the mature decisions in life .... I guess it will come when we get there .... why worry right? hehee
