Wedding Bells are aringing for more than one of my friends recently.
Was just minding my own business going to my UOL HRM Lecture when I met Shiqing, a friend that I made in my first two years in SIM. The first thing that she said to me was, "I'm getting married."
OH MY GOD!!!
That was the exact response I had, both in my head and my heart and I said as much. I was so happy for her! I can't believe she's getting married already, she's still so young! I knew she has a very stable 3 year relationship with her boyfriend but it still came as a shock as she's only graduating this June and her boyfriend had only started work for maybe about a year. I was really flabbergasted but in a good way. I'm really happy for her.
Then, guess what I got to hear from Zhixian yesterday? M's engaged too! I was beyond shocked and immediately climbed out of bed to go online to talk to them. Too bad Xinrong was already offline already. If I didn't expect Shiqing's announcement, I would never in a million years have guessed that T has popped the question already.
Wow! It really blew me away! Is it marriage season now? What's with everyone getting ready to be married left and right? Leaves me to think, "What the hell am I doing without even a boyfriend when the rest of the world's already off making babies and building families?"
Oh well! Like what I'd said to all my friends, you can't rush these things and if it's not meant to be then no matter what I do I'd never get a boyfriend even if I were desperate. Which I'm not (at least not yet). I'm at quite a comfortable place in life and honestly, while it'll be nice to be able to tan lian ai like the rest I can live without it at the moment. Wonder if I'll ever get to the point when I really REALLY want to have a boyfriend yet can't find one? Would I think of hiring a male escort? Hmm... *chuckles and grins cheekily*
No matter what I wish these two girls a long and blissful marriage and may they lead fruitful and wonderful lives with their partners!
